@barbarap I completely agree with the examples mentioned. In addition to those, another noteworthy advancement in building design and construction is the use of mass timber as a sustainable and eco-friendly building material. Mass timber is a renewable resource that sequesters carbon, and it has a lower carbon footprint compared to traditional building materials like concrete and steel. Its use in construction has been gaining popularity in recent years, particularly for tall buildings.
Furthermore, the implementation of augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) technologies in building design and construction is also a significant advancement. These technologies allow architects, engineers, and builders to visualize and simulate construction processes, making it easier to detect potential issues and minimize errors before construction begins. This leads to more efficient and cost-effective construction processes and ultimately better results for clients.
