Nagaur. To change a punctured tyre, you must have used a jack in vehicles or must have seen it somewhere. But have you ever seen a jack being used to raise a house higher from the ground? No? So today let us show you in pictures how a house is lifted from the ground with the help of a jack. In fact, you will be shocked to know that a house constructed in this manner can also be shifted from one place to another. (Report: Krishna Kumar)
The single storey house you are seeing is being lifted off the ground with the help of a jack. Contractor Sukhwinder Singh, who is using this technique, said that this technique is called Jack House Shifting Technique. Lifting or shifting the house in this manner does not cause any damage to the strength of the house. The company operating this technology is from Haryana, which is known as House Shifting in house lifting.
To raise or shift a house, first of all the foundation of the house is dug and one stone is taken out from it. While removing stones, a wooden bundle is placed on the upper part and a pipe made of iron is shifted over it. Then the jack is fitted according to the length and width of the house. And by tightening each jack the house is slowly lifted up. When the house has been raised a little, the joining of bricks is started from the foundation side. The house continues to be lifted through this process.
Jugal Sadawat, owner of the house seen in the picture, said that his house had gone one foot below the road. The result was that rain water used to enter the house. It was not possible to demolish the house and rebuild it. Then someone told about the technique of lifting the house with a jack. Then talked to Sukhwinder, director of House Lifting and Shifting Company of Haryana. Sukhwinder quoted a charge of Rs 300 per square foot for raising the house. Including the cost of materials, the cost is around Rs 15 lakh.
