Students in an old classroom needing restoration

Direct Action: Structural Dignity

Restoration Initiative

Tiling & Roofing Restoration Block

Q: How does the Restoration project align with CSR Schedule VII?

The project falls under Item (ii): Promoting education, including special education and employment enhancing vocation skills through infrastructure improvement.

Q: What is the total area being restored?

The project covers approximately 2,000 sq. ft. involving tiling of floors and complete re-roofing of the older classroom block.

Q: Why is tiling necessary for rural classrooms?

Old classrooms have cracked cement floors that generate dust, causing respiratory issues. Vitrified tiling ensures a hygienic, easy-to-clean environment for students.

Q: What type of roofing material will be used?

We use high-grade pre-painted galvalume sheets with heat insulation layers to ensure the classrooms remain cool in summer and dry during monsoons.

Q: Does this project disrupt ongoing classes?

We implement a phased restoration plan, typically during vacations or weekends, to ensure student learning is never compromised.

Q: How is the construction quality verified?

Satyashodhak employs third-party civil engineers to audit material quality (tiles/sheets) and installation techniques at every stage.

Q: What is the life expectancy of the new infrastructure?

With our specified materials, the roofing has a 15-20 year leak-proof life, and the vitrified tiling is designed for 25+ years of heavy student footfall.

It aligns with Item (ii): Promoting education, including special education, and vocation skills by providing a safe and dignified physical learning environment.

2. What is the total area being restored?

The current Phase I covers restoration of 2,000 sq. ft. of educational space across the primary school block.

3. Why is tiling necessary for rural classrooms?

Vitrified tiles prevent dust accumulation (common in cement floors), reducing respiratory issues and skin allergies among children who sit on the floor during group activities.

4. What type of roofing material will be used?

We use 0.50mm TCT pre-painted galvalume sheets with anti-corrosion coating, specifically rated for heavy monsoon durability.

5. Does this project disrupt ongoing classes?

Restoration is scheduled in a rotational manner using "Buffer Classrooms" or during the summer/monsoon break to ensure zero learning loss.

6. How is the construction quality verified?

We conduct "Stage-Gate" audits: verifying truss strength before roofing and conducting level-checks before tiling to ensure PWD-grade finishes.

7. What is the life expectancy of the new infrastructure?

The roofing system is rated for 20 years, and the vitrified tiling is heavy-duty industrial grade with a 25-year lifecycle.

8. Can a CSR partner choose the tile colors?

Yes, within our standard durability-tested palette (typically light greys/beiges for better classroom brightness), sponsors are welcome to provide input.

9. How is community ownership established?

We involve the School Health Committee (parents and teachers) in the final handover to ensure they oversee the daily cleaning and preservation of the block.
