To alle­vi­ate the pres­sure from the liq­uid con­crete, the con­crete is placed in lay­ers or ​‘lifts’. The first lift is lim­it­ed to 4′ (1.2 m) of con­crete around the perime­ter of the build­ing. This allows approx­i­mate­ly one hour for the con­crete to set-up before con­tin­u­ing with the next 4′ (1.2 m) lift. The low­er lift pro­vides sup­port for the next lift as the con­crete is placed con­tin­u­ous­ly around the build­ing in con­sec­u­tive lifts to the top of the wall.

Fox Blocks presents the fol­low­ing out­line designed to help project man­agers maneu­ver the com­mer­cial con­struc­tion process from start to fin­ish.

Choos­ing the right foun­da­tion is a sig­nif­i­cant deci­sion in com­mer­cial con­struc­tion. This arti­cle explores the dif­fer­ences between block and poured foun­da­tions, pro­vid­ing insights into their ben­e­fits and poten­tial draw­backs.

We don’t just work toward improv­ing our own prod­ucts and ser­vices: we want the entire build­ing indus­try to improve. Involve­ment in and lead­er­ship of crit­i­cal orga­ni­za­tions and com­mit­tees ensures we are at the fore­front of pro­vid­ing high-qual­i­ty ben­e­fits for all project stake­hold­ers.

The envi­ron­men­tal impact of build­ings is a key con­cern in mod­ern con­struc­tion, focus­ing on reduc­ing car­bon emis­sions. A clear under­stand­ing of embod­ied and oper­a­tional car­bon, along with their dif­fer­ences, is essen­tial for sus­tain­able con­struc­tion strate­gies.

Whether it’s a high-rise res­i­den­tial apart­ment build­ing or a com­mer­cial com­plex, the quick­er a mul­ti-sto­ry build­ing is con­struct­ed, the soon­er it can start gen­er­at­ing rev­enue.

The future of apart­ment build­ing con­struc­tion lies in lever­ag­ing inno­v­a­tive mate­ri­als and process­es to deliv­er bet­ter projects faster and more effi­cient­ly

Three sus­tain­able build­ing mate­ri­als for 2019 that stand out are the TRUE­GRID® Per­me­able Pavers, Fox Blocks and Bam­boo.
