The construction business is changing, although on the surface it still appears to be about mud, mortar, and concrete. The construction industry has evolved and various new materials are being developed. Here, https://lnkd.in/dCfkphm6 explores such innovative building materials. #sustainablebuilding #innovativematerials #greenbuilding #construction #futureofconstruction #gharpedia

Specialized companies pioneering sustainable construction materials are paving the way for a potential new era, dispelling false myths about their work. It's noteworthy that some of the oldest structures globally are crafted from materials like clay and earth, enduring the test of time, while conventional concrete buildings, reinforced with steel, exhibit signs of corrosion with an expected lifespan of merely 30 to 100 years. Could this signal the dawn of a new era in sustainable architecture? #Webuild

"This conundrum of RAAC, which reached crisis levels last summer, reveals nuanced issues with the way buildings are designed and constructed — issues that are worth interrogating to inform new approaches to building for a low-carbon future. A well-maintained building of any material should be able to last forever if designed and built in a way that facilitates repair." "In the past 150 years, our buildings have transformed. They used to be simple structures made from a few materials used in ways that had been understood for hundreds of years. Now, they are made up of hundreds of different high-tech materials, all of which tend to be fragile and prone to wear. RAAC is one of these." #architecture #design Today in Building Design., Alex Lynes discusses the fragility of Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (RAAC), how Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) is a viable alternative and the importance of creating resilient buildings. https://lnkd.in/ei_CTSPG

Light Building Methods for a #SustainableFuture With growing Environmental concerns and the need to minimize the construction Industry's impact, #lightbuilding methods are on the rise. This approach balances traditional construction needs with #sustainability through innovative techniques such as wood construction, light gauge steel, concrete combinations, prefabrication, and modular design. These methods focus on #resourceefficiency, faster construction, #lowercarbonfootprints, and cost-effectiveness. Understanding the benefits and regional dynamics of light building is essential. Factors like #culturalshifts towards #Environmentalresponsibility, geographic acceptance, #policysupport, economic considerations, and #climateadaptation play crucial roles in this trend. #Sustainability #LightBuilding #Construction #Innovation #EnvironmentalStewardship #GreenBuilding #Architecture
The rise of light construction: A path to sustainable building

A really interesting article on what can be learnt from a pretty serious issue. Let's learn the lessons from RAAC, including why it was so useful, and consider light touch fixes before leaping into high carbon/cost and disruptive "solutions".
