The first monsoon flatters a building. The third one tells the truth.
At RTC SPIPA, the brick was left exposed on purpose — no cladding to hide behind, just the material weathering in the open through Gujarat's heat and rain. Three monsoons after handover, we went back to check what it's actually doing.
Verdict: a natural patina, not damage. Minor efflorescence, no cracking. Almost nothing on the maintenance sheet.
The real project starts after occupancy. This is what performance looks like when no one's watching.
