Also in the January issue of Concrete Engineering International magazine, Ian Bogle of Bogle Architects talks about the Royal Grammar School Guildford Dubai project, which has used concrete creatively to create an environmentally significant in-situ structural structure. The cantilevered solution provides a self-shading element while the pool is shaded and naturally ventilated through a decorative mashrabiya-style architecture. #Architecture #Sustainability #

Please correct me if I'm wrong here ... Our current default construction method for high-density housing is towers. These typically consist of: - Cast-in-place concrete structure - Cantilevered balconies - Aluminium curtainwall facades That means we are using: - The lowest performing envelope system - The highest embodied carbon facade - The worst thermal bridging detail possible Am I missing something here? #architecture #embodiedcarbon #carbon #architect

AAC industrial panels are much better than tilt-up system with an R-value of 10 continuous insulation! versus tilt-up R-value of less than 2. No wonder why warehouses are extremely hot. Also, faster and so much easier to build with prefabricated light concrete panels. AAC industrial panels are the future!

The architect asked us to add extra square footage to the existing structure and also to do polished concrete in that additional section. I just wanted to show you what differences we do compare to regular stick framing when it comes to polish concreting. #Architecture #Construction #BuildingDesign #ConcretePolishing #HomeImprovement #Renovation #ConcreteFinishing #ExtraSquareFootage #BuildingExpansion #PolishedConcrete #StructuralAddition
