Methods such as thin joint systems with Aircrete blocks and structural insulated panels (SIPS) are part of the ongoing evolution of masonry and timber frame construction.
Other techniques more familiar in larger scale commercial construction have developed, bringing alternatives with some interesting qualities to house building. Steel frame systems have developed and in-situ concrete techniques have led to the development of insulated concrete forms (ICF).
Modern Building Construction Methods embrace innovation by offering solutions which can be used to reduce construction time and promote sustainable development, as well as offering cost savings.
