With these achievements, the strength of the bond is still as good as traditional mortar application.Ĭommercial construction techniques have certainly improved in modern times with modern technologies. While less is used, speed and efficiency increases and cost reduces. Thin joint masonry technique uses less mortar in concrete blocks and panels. This makes the building process fool-proof and sound and thermally insulated. After assembly, these blocks are filled with ready mixed concrete. Insulating concrete formwork technique uses polystyrene blocks as twin walls, easy and fast to assemble as wall formwork. These flat slabs can be changed even below the floor slabs, but require less reinforcement than traditional methods, and reduce labor costs. It’s fairly simple to build hybrid concrete structures.įlat slab technology uses modern formwork for fast construction of flat slabs for partitioning. Although the process is quickened, quality actually improves and cost reduces. Hybrid concrete building technique uses the best parts of concrete pre-casting to speed up the commercial construction process. These result in strong foundations (regardless of weather in construction) from connecting concrete piles. Pre-cast foundation technique is for quickly building foundations with precast, factory-produced, concrete elements. These units can be produced in advance to be fire retardant, sound resistant and to contain other important construction properties before final assembly. Upon completion of production, these modules are shipped to the construction site to be integrated into the building and finished.


The speed is achieved by using readily mixed concrete in a high-production setting where the formwork can be stacked via cranes.ģD volumetric construction uses 3D units produced in factories, or offsite, for modular systems from building materials. Tunnel formwork system is a commercial construction technique for repetitive units or walls to be quickly constructed. One of the attractive points of this type of construction is the speed of integration into the building. Even pieces which are load bearing (including insulation panels) can be produced as precast flat panel modules. These panels are manufactured off-site and then shipped to the construction site for integration into the building.

There are a number of modern changes, but here are some of the most common commercial construction techniques in recent times.Ĭross-wall construction, or precast flat panel modules, are for floors and walls. These techniques have reduced construction timelines, costs and changes. Innovation in technologies has really aided commercial construction techniques in recent times.
