For those too darn busy to read the whole article, I'll provide you with the essential extract, the winning formula of successful offsite construction: "Designs are digitally constructed and virtually tested before they move on to the manufacturing phase." Modular construction does not mix well with traditional methodologies.

Revolutionizing Construction: The Legacy of the Industrial Revolution 🏗️🔧 The Industrial Revolution marked a pivotal moment in construction history, introducing radical changes in techniques and materials that define modern building practices today. This era saw the introduction of iron and steel in building frameworks, replacing wood, which transformed the skyline with the ability to build higher and stronger structures. Innovations such as the Portland cement and the safety elevator also emerged, enhancing the durability and functionality of buildings. At RVM Construction, we build on these historical foundations, using the best of past innovations combined with today's advanced technologies to ensure our projects are not only structurally sound but also sustainable and forward-thinking. #IndustrialRevolution #ConstructionEvolution #RVMConstruction

As Chicago's industrial market cools from the white-hot activity of 2021-22, developers are taking a more cautious approach and the ratio of spec to Build-to-Suit developments is evening out. Director of Research Services Nicholas Schlanger and Hiffman's research team contributed to this BISNOW report detailing the changing approach to Chicago's industrial development market. #cre #industrial #chicago #development #buildtosuit

🚧 Innovation in Construction: Rainier Square Project 🚧 Have you guys heard #SpeedCore? Here is an example: The Rainier Square project in Seattle sets a new benchmark in construction efficiency and innovation! 🏢 This project utilized a hybrid concrete-steel core method, allowing for rapid and streamlined construction. By employing this cutting-edge technique, the core was completed significantly faster compared to traditional concrete cores, demonstrating both time and cost efficiency. 🔹 Faster Construction: The hybrid core method drastically reduced the time needed for the core phase, enabling quicker overall progress. 🔹 Enhanced Efficiency: Combining concrete and steel optimized the structural integrity while expediting the build process. 🔹 Cutting-Edge Techniques: This project showcases how innovative approaches can revolutionize the construction industry. The side-by-side comparison in this video illustrates the impressive pace and precision of the Rainier Square core construction. It’s a testament to how modern engineering techniques can lead to superior results. Watch the full transformation here: https://lnkd.in/du4a4ksZ We look forward to hearing your comments on the project! #Construction #Innovation #Engineering #Seattle #RainierSquare #Efficiency #ModernEngineering

Chicago Industrial Build-To-Suits Begin Overtaking Spec Builds As Developers Lose Appetite For Risk Developers in Chicago's industrial market are starting to shift new construction projects from speculative buildings to build-to-suit developments as demand lags behind an onslaught of new supply that has come online in the past couple of years. #darwinpw #corfacinternational #industrialrealestate Read more: https://lnkd.in/gR5tEwrv

It's taken a few years....but finally, we're pleased to announce the launch of our earth block/cob block making machines. Specifically designed for manufacturing blocks on scale (100 units per hour). Incredibly easy to use, compact and lightweight, these machines are a cleaner alternative to other methods on the market........and here's the kicker.....if buying one isn't for you they are available to hire.

🏗️ Is the Construction Industry at a Henry Ford Moment? 🚗 In a recent article by LBM Journal, industry leaders shared their predictions about the future of the housing industry, and their opinions are worth highlighting: 1️⃣ The head of one of the largest production builders in the country (US) believes that within the next three to five years, 30-50% of all housing will be built offsite. 2️⃣ Another opinion comes from an investor who compares the current state of the housing industry to Henry Ford's transformative impact on manufacturing. They predict that most housing will soon transition to offsite construction, resulting in faster production, higher quality, and lower prices. 3️⃣ Noah Knauf, a partner at investment group BOND, adds an intriguing perspective by emphasizing that housing is the only consumer product not produced in a factory. This observation highlights the potential for a seismic shift in the way business is conducted within the industry. These opinions collectively suggest that the construction industry may be on the verge of a significant transformation. The possibility of faster, higher quality, and more affordable housing through offsite construction is an exciting prospect that challenges traditional practices. What are your thoughts on this? Do you believe we are at a Henry Ford moment in the construction industry?

Heeeelp! The efficiency of this brick making machine is so high, I regret knowing it too late! In the world of architecture, bricks are indispensable building blocks. They carry the thick history and modern prosperity in obscurity. The brickmaking machine was born to create these solid cornerstones efficiently and precisely. Today, I'm going to tell you about a brick machine that's revolutionizing the industry - it's not only changing the brick-making process, it's opening up a new chapter in construction.

Let's all agree, sometimes construction can "appear" like nothing is happening. But that is an illusion!
