Progress Update: Foundation walls are 95% complete, with structural steel installation scheduled for early November. Interior demolition is now complete, underground plumbing is underway, and the rebuild has begun! A huge thank you to all our partners for their continued support and hard work on this project. #ConstructionProgress #ProjectUpdate #Teamwork #Weitzman #ConstructionIndustry #TargetBuilding #TargetBuildingconstruction

What is glazing method in construction? As used in construction, glazing refers to installing glass in a building's fixed openings, such as windows and doors. Glazing also refers to any glass within a building or structure. In construction, the glazing for a project refers to the glass needed to complete the project.

A client from North America told me about their building proposal: They are options: 1. Making beams first, then the panel deck come in. The beam and deck are cast together.  2. ⁠The building is built to the deck level and beams are made with wood using spaced 5 inches according to block size ( sizes 5 or 6 inches and these are made with wooden blocks ( this wooden is what I was asking if you have mental options just like wall formwork so that we stop using wood for beams) and afterwards the panels are put into place and the beams as well as the deck are cast together. Do you have any suitable plans to share? #plan #construction #officebuilding #greenformwork #buildingmaterials #buildingplan #WOC2024

On-center dimensions like 16”, 12”, and 24” are used in construction because: • Industry Standard: They provide a consistent building approach. • Material Fit: They match standard material sizes, like 4-foot-wide plywood and drywall. • Strength and Cost: They balance support and cost, such as 16” on-center for most structures. • Efficiency: They make measuring and cutting easier, speeding up construction. • Load Distribution: They help evenly distribute weight, supporting typical finishes and loads

#waterproofingwednesday and a good example of what #propertymanagers need to consider when they manage apartments or condos with balcony decks as the restoration process can be challenging when the building is occupied. In this case, the work was completed from the outside adn the workers access via scaffolding so they can repair the substrate, siding, sheet metal flashing and of course the waterproof deck coating. #facilitymanagers #architects #buildingenvelope

Constructing a house is more than assembling a slab on four walls. To ensure the longevity and strength of the structure, proper planning, selection of the right materials, and employing the right experts are necessary. By breaking down the entire construction project into stages, you can access a more efficient way to plan and design for the project. This way, you can save both, time and cost. Here, we will explore the various stages of construction and the timelines associated with each stage.  

It takes skill to work with so many different materials! Cladding often strongly influences the insulation, structural maintenance, and aesthetic of a building. #BuildID #construction #skilledtrades #cladding #cladder
