Mymoon Moghul

CSIR-SERC has designed optimum designs for lightweight, temporary hospital structures to support India's response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The designs include: (1) Poli-Tal portable units for immediate needs, including 8.5m x 4m units that can accommodate 4 beds and be manually erected within 12 days to create a 60-80 bed facility at low cost. (2) Pre-Tal pre-fabricated structures for short-term needs, including 10m x 45m modular units that can create a 50 bed hospital within 25 days at a higher but still affordable cost. The designs prioritize rapid deployment, scalability, and functional requirements to effectively treat patients in remote

Temporary and short-term hospital structures for rapid construction

CSIR-Structural Engineering Research Centre (CSIR-SERC), Chennai is a national laboratory under the
Council of Scientific & Industrial Research, New Delhi. The laboratory has come out with optimum designs
for construction of lightweight transit hospital structures to support the efforts of the government in
tackling the emergency condition that has risen due to the spread of COVID-19.

Salient features of the design:


• Designed for implementation in remote / rural locations
• Stable as well as scalable due to identical and modular units
• Designs for two types of hospitals to suit
(i) immediate requirements and (ii) short-term needs

I Poli-Tal (for immediate requirements)


Scheme 1

 Portable units of 8.5 m x 4 m to accommodate 4 beds


 Optimal design for steel portal structure with ready-to-fix facility
 Manual erection with only basic tools
 Two types of arrangements – fan and wing (flexibility on number of units)
 Maximum 12 days to install 60-80 beds facility in a chosen location
 Approx. cost: INR 350-400 per sq. ft.

Water proof material

Scheme 2

 Module of 3.5 m x 6 m size transported in folded form and erected in less than an hour using crane
 Standard steel sections used with easily deployable envelop
 Provisions to meet the functional requirements and hold 2 beds per unit
 40-60 bed facility in just 3 days
 Approx. cost: INR 750 per sq. ft.

COVID-19 Positive Wards

Toilets

Isolation Wards
II Pre-Tal (for short-term requirements)

 Pre-fabricated lightweight portal frame structure of 10 m x 45 m for quarantine hospitals


 Semi-permanent facility with options to scale-up
 Provisions to accommodate functional requirements
 Partition walls using EPS panels – thermal comfort
 Roof – Corrugated metal sheet / steel pop sheet
 Includes pre-fabricated toilets made using CSIR-SERC technology
 50 beds facility can be constructed in about 25 days at an identified site
 Approx. cost: INR 1800-2100 per sq. ft.
 Provisions for A.C. and other utilities can be provided as required
