Examining three advances in construction and building design technology
We’re hearing lots about advances in construction and building design technology, but much of them are still in their infancy. So what are the pros actually using?
What is industrialized construction?
In efforts to ramp up efficiency, reduce waste, and address skilled labor shortages, industrialized construction may be the answer. This approach shifts on-site work away from the jobsite where building components are produced in a factory off-site and shipped to the jobsite.
Circular economy in building design and construction
