The Confederation of Real Estate Developers Association of India (Credai) will compile a safety and quality manual to ensure structural stability of buildings and work with the Government to incorporate it into construction clearance procedures.

The apex body of real estate developers has initiated this process after an 11-floor building under construction in suburban Porur collapsed claiming over 60 lives. Ajit Chordia, President, Credai-Chennai, told reporters that the industry body has constituted an eight-member expert team to suggest the standard operating procedures to be incorporated in the manual. This will be obligatory for Credai members and be part of the clearance process.
