Question to civil engineers on the forum..

what are those rocks on right side?
will those be left like that or cement plastering will be done later?
what happens when those wire frames get rusted due to proximity to water?
===========
Khidkiya Ghat
I'm not a civil engineer but will give my 2 cents.
You may have seen these walls in hilly roads

these are called retaining walls and no plastering is done so that water gets drained out easily whereas the wire frames are reqd to maintain the wall structure. Rusting may be there so maybe they change them. It's also possible that some corrosion-resistive material is used to make(coat) them.

They're called gabion walls.

From Wikipedia: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gabion

The life expectancy of gabions depends on the lifespan of the wire, not on the contents of the basket. The structure will fail when the wire fails. Galvanized steel wire is most common, but PVC-coated and stainless steel wire are also used. PVC-coated galvanized gabions have been estimated to survive for 60 years.[3] Some gabion manufacturers guarantee a structural consistency of 50 years.[4]

Anyways that video was not about specific projects within MPT redevelopment, it was about Over all design philosophy, mostly focused on what he calls Redevelopment site 1.

let me clarify, reason for posting that video is that I was more interested in design philosophy not actual designs.

by the way, this is happening quite frequently now. I post something, you reply in negatory and discussion goes in a different tangent.

Purvanchal express way per km construction cost(excluding land acquisition cost) comes to around 4.7 million $ , how does it compare to rest of the world?

with land acquisition cost it comes to 8.7 million $ per km.

keep in mind this is an elevated expressway.
