Behaviour of Interlocking Hollow Concrete Blocks [PDF]
International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development, 2018 India is one of the highly populated countries of the world. It ranks the second in population next to China. Besides this, major section of the people live below poverty line. Due to over population, poverty, high land value and house deficit, major cities like Delhi and Mumbai are covered by slums.
