simpler compared to different traditional techniques.
Metal frame
Very fast
Light
Sustainable
Solid
Anti-seismic and anticyclonic
Cost reduction
Architectural autonomy
100% compliant
Clean construction site
Offsite design and assembly
Fast and economical transport
Possibility of off-site pre-assembly
TRADITIONAL framework
Lots of difficult and heavy handling
Lots of messy cutting of bricks and cinder blocks
The demanding preparation of cement
Number of workers needed for a larger site or a very long duration
Weight of the construction requiring larger and more complex foundations depending on the nature of the soil
Drying time required
Non-recyclable materials
A large number of waste to be disposed of
Low resistance and fragility to extreme conditions (seismic and cyclonic) which are increasingly common regardless of the area of the globe
Wood frame
Lighter than traditional but much heavier than galvanized steel, heavy load to handle
The cost of wood is very high for construction.
Deforestation to build
Scope limit that imposes architectural limits
Very vulnerable to mold, termites and other pests.
