 4 Best Roofing Materials So you’ve decided to purchase a steel building. Perhaps it will be something large, like a metal storage warehouse, or small, like a prefab steel home with insulated metal panels. Either way, you’ll need to roof it, so it’s vital to have a good sense of your options. Let’s take a look at what, for the highly knowledgeable team at Allied Steel, are without a doubt the four best kinds of roofing materials for metal buildings.   Aluminum Roofing  Aluminum is one of the most prominent and popular metals in the world. The third most abundant metal on Earth makes a great material for roofing metal and steel buildings, especially for projects in environments that are particularly harsh due to salt, weather, and water damage potential.

Not only does aluminum stand up to extremely harsh weather conditions, but it’s one of the most sustainable and energy-efficient me
 Megadevelopment Projects: Redesigning the Future Megacities Developers are considering complicated development areas due to the scarcity of land in most megacities. Meanwhile, many post-industrial landscapes that serve as potentially developable land include waterfronts, rail-yards, and abandoned industrial sectors. Developers are taking a second look at them and seeing if they could be converted into a fully-developed area. While the whole process might take years of planning and visualization, not to mention that the initial process can be equally complicated since it involves many stakeholders. However, once transformed, these landscapes can become among the best places to be. Cooper Robertson is an architecture and urban design firm that has been at the forefront in casting megadevelopment projects in major cities. The firm has led some desirable projects, including the M-City in Canada, new jersey’s Riverton, and Hudson Yards in Manhattan. Donald Clinton, one of the partners of t

Everything You Need to Know About Smart Building

Across all industries and processes, there is an apparent transformation happening. The change is greatly influenced by technology, between the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), virtual reality, plus other systems. The transformation is encouraging a new wave of the industrial revolution, and construction and maintenance are not left behind. What is a Smart Building? In recent years, the construction of smart buildings has taken shape all over the world. It is a development supported by the need for sustenance and very importantly, environmental change. A smart building uses technology to communicate across all its systems to not only offer sustainability and improve productivity but also to observe ecological impacts. Smart buildings will not only provide shelter but make life better for all occupants. These smart technologies can now be used to construct new buildings, but old buildings are also being converted into intelligent buildings. This kind of building t

ConTech: What It Is and What to Look Out For

Basic Things To Know About ConTech Solutions     0 ConTech. Maybe you’ve heard the word floating around, and don’t know what it means. Perhaps you work with it every day. Either way, it’s worth paying attention because ConTech, or construction technologies, might gradually shape the future of architecture, construction, and management. Here’s how. What Is ConTech What is ConTech In the simplest terms, ConTech stands for construction technology. Which technologies it refers to isn’t widely agreed. Still, most of the standout examples that people will use are directly involved in the actual construction process. With the aid of ConTech, construction firms can cut down on worker injury, streamline the building process, or enable the construction of more durable and smarter buildings. There are examples of construction technology used before breaking ground and after the construction is complete. These fall more into the realms of architectural tools or PropTech, (or property technology).

About Chloe Teo

Hello everyone! My name is Chloe and I’m a real estate strategist, a beauty and travel content creator, photographer and co-founder of Studiopetitesg, as well as an artisanal jelly cakes maker at JoybyChloe. Ever since I’ve made the career switch 5 years ago, I have embarked on these different paths to be able to work from home and enjoy more time flexibility, which hopefully helps with our future family planning. And here’s how our love story started. Benjamin and I met on the first day of our Secondary school life. I first knew him as the irritating guy who targeted all the forfeits at me during orientation camp. We started dating when we were 14 (shhh, our parents didn’t know then, haha) Moving forward to 2017, we got our little furkid- a pug called Doori (who is always so full of love for us). In 2018, we moved into our new home (which is a major milestone for us!) and got married in 2019 (like FINALLY after 15 years haha). And in 2022, having had couple time for at least 2 years +

What would you like? Or dislike? How would you interact with your brothers? How should we bring you up so you can navigate this fast-moving world? While you remain in mum’s womb, you must have
