At WSB Projects, we believe that the future of construction lies in embracing advanced technologies that not only deliver precision but also significantly enhance efficiency. By leveraging the power of Pre-Engineered Buildings (PEB) and Light Gauge Steel Frame (LGSF) systems, we are transforming the way construction projects are executed. With WSB Projects, you don't have to choose between quality and efficiency; we offer the best of both, helping you get your project off the ground quickly without compromising on the integrity and resilience of the build. Whether it's a commercial development or a residential space, we are here to revolutionize your construction experience. #PEBConstruction #LGSFTechnology #SustainableBuilding #CostEffectiveConstruction #EfficientConstruction #StructuralStrength #DesignFlexibility #GreenBuilding #EnergyEfficient #ModernConstruction #ConstructionInnovation #QualityControl #AdaptableStructures

Discover the game-changing impact of pre-engineered buildings on the construction landscape! From enhanced efficiency to superior strength, explore how PEBs are revolutionizing the way we build. With faster construction times, cost-effectiveness, and unmatched structural integrity, it's no wonder PEBs are reshaping the industry.

The #BuildingSafetyAct has brought about significant changes to the construction and development arena. In this piece we discuss some of the considerations necessary when contemplating works to commercial units located within a Higher-Risk Building. https://ow.ly/azI350SC3Cz #BSA2022 #realestate #higherriskbuildings #commercial #commercialproperty

There are some significant differences in how compliance can be achieved with the newly combined and simplified Approved Document L2 2021 (ADL2) which covers both new and existing non-domestic buildings.  Explore those changes directly related to the building envelope in our blog: https://zurl.co/F5n0 #PartL #BuildingRegulations #UKConstruction #UKBuilding

The Arcadis 2024 International Construction Costs report calculates an index using 20 building types, such as residential, commercial and public sector, and takes into account #construction costs and market conditions. The results? Three American cities are listed in the top 10 as most expensive in the world for construction. They are: * City of New York is #5 * City and County of San Francisco is #6 * City of Philadelphia is #7 Fortunately, using #modern #buildingmaterials like #EIFS with Drainage (e.g. Exterior Insulation Finish Systems) are a very tangible way for #architects, #designers, #engineers, #developers, #buildingowners and #governmentofficials to control #costs in #newconstruction and #renovation. But don't take my word for it. Information compiled by RSMeans Data from Gordian, the authoritative subscription-based construction costs firm, shows that the installed cost of EIFS are significantly less than other, #heavyweight cladding options like #curtainwall, #stone, #precast and #brick. In fact, the latest, 2Q24 data shows that walls clad in brick veneer with #steel backup are 68% more expensive than similar EIFS walls on 3-story, 6-story, and 15-story newly constructed apartment buildings on a national basis. Other cost highlights can be found at the site of the EIFS Industry Members Association (EIMA) association right here https://lnkd.in/ekQwU-3v Since the "I" in "EIFS" stands for insulation, it is no surprise that EIFS have always met the continuous insulation requirements (e.g. ASHRAE 90.1) mandated by the International Code Council's International Energy Conservation Code ever since they came into effect in 2013. Here's a case study published by Habitat Magazine that shows EIFS in a #retrofit application in Brooklyn, https://lnkd.in/dGrwcrPV With more finishes than ever before, one can see some great examples of EIFS projects from all over #northamerica at EIMA's photo gallery. https://lnkd.in/ddjUwqxS www.eima.com #eima #architecture #design #constructioncosts #financialvalue #buildingperformance #sustainability #energyefficiency
