Building Information Modelling


This technique involves the use of
3-dimensional, computer-
generated models of the building.
With these models, the factors of
time and cost are added to give an
overall bird's eye view of how the
project will look.

3D Printing
3D printing digitally creates successive
layers of materials to produce three-
dimensional objects from a digital file.
It has evolved to be a natural fit within
the industry usable for a variety of
suitable materials and providing almost
limitless freedom of flexible design.

Robotics
Robotics are being utilized for
bricklaying, welding and concrete
pouring.
Employing robots to perform typical
human labor provides construction
efficiencies, precision, reduced human
labor and enhanced safety.

Drones
Drones provide construction teams with
an overhead view of jobsites, materials,
machinery and people.
Drones are use to record images and
videos that help optimize everything
from grading plans and operations to
identifying differences between as-
designed and as-built site plans.

Shotcreting & Guniting


The process in both the
methods involves spraying of
the concrete or the mortar mix
pneumatically with the help of
a spraying gun or nozzle. This
is done at a higher velocity on
to the surface of application.

TECHNOLOGY
This rigid mould, or "slip-form"
as it is called, forms the
working deck which is jacked
slowly upwards at a controlled
rate until the required elevation
is reached.

Pre-cast Concrete
Precast concrete is a
construction product produced
by casting concrete in a
reusable mold or "form" which
is then cured in a controlled
environment, transported to the
construction site and lifted into
place
