  2. (403) 801 4612 The construction industry has undergone continues changes over the decades. Whether it’s the growing demand for ‘green’ technology or about speeding up construction projects, this industry has always kept up. Here we take a look what new technologies and innovations hold for the future of construction. azimuthbuilders@gmail.com http://www.azimuthbuilders.com

  3. (403) 801 4612 New Construction Technology - 3D Printing 3D printing technology allows creation of shapes that couldn’t be produced ever before. It can help reduce construction time by huge margins. The increase in productivity can be as high as 80% in some cases. The new technology can also help bring about significant reduction in waste. You can have custom-designed components made in much shorter time and at much lower costs. 3D printing technology itself is in the early stages and is being used in different industries. The early 3D printers were small in size and were designed for low volumes. However, new larger printers with higher capacities can churn our larger shapes in higher volumes with higher speed. azimuthbuilders@gmail.com http://www.azimuthbuilders.com

  4. (403) 801 4612 New Construction Materials Some of the new innovative construction materials that can bring major changes in the industry include the following two examples: 1. Tougher Concrete 2. Durable & Self-Cleaning Finishes azimuthbuilders@gmail.com http://www.azimuthbuilders.com

  5. (403) 801 4612 Tougher Concrete A new type of concrete made of nano-reinforced material, made by mixing cellulose nano-crystals (from wood fiber) with concrete. The material is better than concrete in the following areas: * Flexibility * Impact resistance * Strength Compared to concrete, this type of construction material helps achieve similar effects for lesser volume. The nano-crystal material is sourced as a byproduct of paper or bio-energy production. It works by improving the concrete-curing process. This allows the concrete to make more efficient use of water, but its density and weight is not affected significantly. It can also be added to other construction materials to enhance their effectiveness. azimuthbuilders@gmail.com http://www.azimuthbuilders.com

  6. (403) 801 4612 Durable & Self-Cleaning Finishes A new type of coating made of titanium dioxide nanoparticles can be applied on steel, glass and a wide range of other materials including paper. It is much more effective than any other existing coating material in resistant moisture. In fact, it can retain its properties even when scratched. The titanium dioxide-based coating can resist oil, water and red wine. It works by bouncing the particles off the surface. The coating can also help remove dirt. It has a unique self-cleaning property too. Thus, it can be applied on a wide range of surfaces including roof tiles and external surfaces made of different materials. The coating can provide protection to your building for longer and also reduce maintenance costs. It will be able to withstand the elements and maintain the material’s looks without the need for time-consuming cleaning. azimuthbuilders@gmail.com http://www.azimuthbuilders.com

  7. (403) 801 4612 Latest Innovations - Prefabricated Components Prefabrication is already helping boost productivity in the construction industry. This is combined with standardization of components, and thus helps in reducing the cost of construction. There are many other associated advantages including the following: * Fewer tolerance issues * Reduced maintenance needs, saving time and costs * More certainty over the outcomes azimuthbuilders@gmail.com http://www.azimuthbuilders.com

  8. (403) 801 4612 The new prefabricated components are also better when it come to recycling. Modularization is another advantage that comes with standardization. It also helps increase customization possibilities and efficiency in different types of construction sites. Improved sequencing is another advantage of prefabrication. Using prefabricated components can also help increase productivity in another way. There will no longer be any weather-based delays. This can help significantly reduce project completion times and costs. Another big advantage is that safer working conditions are created, thus further reducing the overall costs. There are many new innovations in the construction industry, contributing to reduced costs and increased productivity and durability. These new technology solutions are currently bringing the big changes. azimuthbuilders@gmail.com http://www.azimuthbuilders.com
