An often overlooked aspect of any building is the vertical transportation systems it offers. It is seldom brought up when debating the merits and demerits of a property. Elevators, escalators, staircases, and moving walkways are some examples of vertical transportation found in residential and commercial buildings. As urban cities in India witness a rapid surge in high-rise constructions, it becomes crucial to understand the mechanics of vertical transportation systems within buildings. While educating users on basic practices—such as correctly operating lift buttons or avoiding regular lifts during a fire—would be ideal, the onus lies on builders and developers to implement essential safety measures.

The aluminium formwork system is a building system used to form cast-in-place concrete structures of buildings. This formwork is made of aluminium alloy, which is very strong and has high tensile strength. Unlike steel, aluminium can be used several times. Lightweight aluminium is also easy to handle and quick to operate making it highly adaptable and cost-effective.
Precast concrete, also known as prefabricated concrete is an alternative to cast-in-situ concrete. It is produced at an off-site controlled factory environment where moulds are used to cast elements such as slabs, walls, columns, beams, etc which are then transported to the construction site for assembly. This method eliminates the need for time-consuming on-site casting and curing, allowing for faster project completion.
Configuration refers to the arrangements of different elements in a particular form or combination. In real estate, configuration refers to the arrangement of different rooms in a single unit (flat).
The finishing stage in the construction cycle is the process of completing the construction project. This includes painting, installing flooring, and completing any final touches. The finishing stage is critical as it ensures the building is ready for occupancy. Finishing is a very labour intensive process which requires detailed project planning to ensure all activities are done in the right sequence to avoid any quality issues in the future.
Construction & Demolition waste (C&D)
Construction and demolition (C&D) waste refers to waste generated from construction, renovation, repair, and demolition of houses, large building structures, roads, bridges and dams. It also includes any surplus and damaged products and material arising through the course of construction work or used temporarily during the course of on-site activities. Materials found in C&D waste can be but are not limited to wood, steel, concrete, gypsum, masonry, plaster, metal, and asphalt waste can contain hazardous materials such as asbestos and lead.
