TYPES OF CONSTRUCTION
RESIDENTIAL
RESIDENTIAL CONSTRUCTION
CONSTRUCTION
RESIDENTIAL CONSTRUCTION

focuses on building homes and

living spaces designed for
individuals or families. This type
of construction emphasizes
comfort, functionality,
aesthetics, and compliance with
local building codes and zoning
regulations.
COMMERCIAL
COMMERCIAL CONSTRUCTION
CONSTRUCTION
COMMERCIAL CONSTRUCTION
involves designing and
constructing structures intended
for business, commerce, and
public interaction. These buildings
are often larger and more complex
than residential structures, with
specialized requirements based on
their use.
 INFRASTRUCTURE
INFRASTRUCTURE
INFRASTRUCTURE

refers to the creation and

maintenance of essential facilities
and systems that support society
and the economy. These projects
typically involve large-scale public
works designed for long-term use,
serving transportation,
communication, energy, water,
and public services.
 INDUSTRIAL
INDUSTRIAL
INDUSTRIAL
focuses on building facilities that
support manufacturing,
production, processing, storage,
and other industrial activities.
These projects are often complex,
large-scale, and require
specialized designs to
accommodate heavy machinery,
hazardous materials, and specific
operational needs.

MODERN
CONSTRUCTION
Modern methods of construction (MMC)

MODERN METHODS OF CONSTRUCTION (MMC) IS A TERM USED TO DESCRIBE

A VARIETY OF CONSTRUCTION TECHNIQUES THAT ARE DESIGNED TO
IMPROVE UPON TRADITIONAL METHODS. MMC IS ALSO KNOWN AS "SMART
CONSTRUCTION".
 Precast Flat Panel System

A PRECAST FLAT PANEL (PFP) SYSTEM IS A CONSTRUCTION TECHNIQUE

THAT PROVIDES AN ALTERNATIVE TO TRADITIONAL SITE-BASED
CONSTRUCTION. PRECAST FLAT PANEL SYSTEM COMPONENTS ARE MASS
PRODUCED OFF-SITE, MAKING THEM PRACTICAL FOR RECURRING
REQUIREMENTS THAT ALSO DEMAND SPEED OF MANUFACTURING AND
CONSISTENCY OF PRODUCT. PANELS CAN INCLUDE ELEMENTS, SUCH AS
DOORS, WINDOWS AND FLOOR UNITS
Precast Flat Panel System
 3D Volumetric Construction

3D VOLUMETRIC CONSTRUCTION IS ONE OF THE MOST MODERN BUILDING

CONSTRUCTION TECHNIQUES IN CIVIL ENGINEERING TODAY. IT IS A FORM
OF OFF-SITE CONSTRUCTION IN WHICH UNITS ARE MANUFACTURED IN A
FACTORY AND THEN TRANSPORTED TO SITE FOR ASSEMBLY.

THIS MODERN METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION OFFERS THE INHERENT

BENEFITS OF CONCRETE, SUCH ASTHERMAL MASS, SOUND AND FIRE
RESISTANCE, AS WELL AS OFFERING FACTORY QUALITY AND ACCURACY,
TOGETHER WITH SPEED OF ERECTION ON-SITE.

 Tunnel Form

TUNNEL FORM CONSTRUCTION IS A MODERN CONSTRUCTION METHOD

THAT INVOLVES USING A FORMWORK SYSTEM TO CAST WALLS AND SLABS
IN A SINGLE OPERATION. THE PROCESS IS WELL-SUITED FOR PROJECTS
WITH REPETITIVE CELLULAR CONSTRUCTION, SUCH AS HOTELS,
RESIDENTIAL BLOCKS, PRISONS, AND STUDENT ACCOMMODATIONS.
Tunnel Form
 Thin Joint Masonry
THIN JOINT MASONRY IS A CONSTRUCTION TECHNIQUE THAT USES A THIN
LAYER OF MORTAR BETWEEN AUTOCLAVED AERATED CONCRETE BLOCKS
TO BUILD WALLS QUICKLY AND ACCURATELY. THE MORTAR IS PRE-MIXED
AND CEMENT-BASED, AND ONLY REQUIRES WATER TO BE ADDED.

THIN JOINT BLOCKWORK (THIN JOINT MASONRY) IS A FAST, CLEAN,

ACCURATE SYSTEM FOR CONSTRUCTION USING AUTOCLAVED AERATED
CONCRETE BLOCKS OF CLOSE DIMENSIONAL TOLERANCE WITH 2MM-3MM
MORTAR JOINTS.
Thin Joint Masonry
 Insulating Concrete Formwork
INSULATING CONCRETE FORMWORK (ICF) IS A BUILDING SYSTEM THAT
USES LIGHTWEIGHT FORMWORK (MADE FROM AN INSULATING MATERIAL)
TO SUPPORT CONCRETE WALLS WHILST THEY ARE BEING CAST IN-SITU
AND WHICH IS THEN LEFT IN PLACE AS INSULATION.
Insulating Concrete Formwork
 Precast Foundations
PRECAST CONCRETE WALLS AND FOUNDATIONS ARE MADE IN A FACTORY
WITH HIGH-STRENGTH, 5,000+ PSI CONCRETE. THE CONCRETE MIX IS
POURED INTO RE-USABLE MOLDS THAT ARE ADJUSTED ACCORDING TO
THE BLUEPRINT SPECIFICATIONS. ONCE THE CONCRETE IS CURED, THE
MOLDS ARE REMOVED, AND THE PANELS ARE THEN DELIVERED TO THE
CONSTRUCTION SITE FOR INSTALLATION AT THE SPECIFIED DATE.

PRECAST CONCRETE, SOMETIMES CALLED “PREFABRICATED” OR “PRE-

MADE” CONCRETE, IS A CONCRETE PRODUCT THAT IS CREATED OFFSITE
THEN DELIVERED TO ITS PROJECT DESTINATION FOR FINAL USE
