Commercial Development Contracting From Experienced RCI Multi-Level High Rise Construction In Southern California
Since commercial buildings are typically large structures that must support more weight and more diverse functionality than residences, concrete is a common building material used in the underlying structure, the exterior, and adjacent paving. This durable material also increases fire resistance and wind resistance from tornados, windstorms, earthquakes, and other natural disasters, while providing heightened security for occupants. Built with techniques that permit rapid construction and reinforced with steel or synthetic fibers and pre- or post-tested for added strength in use, they are meant to last.
Concrete commercial buildings, whether the styling is more traditional or more contemporary, offer design flexibility and appealing aesthetics Using concrete is environmentally sound, as builders can gain tangible benefits such as higher rents and tax breaks by following LEEDS (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) practices that promote energy efficiency, smart material selection, and less waste of resources.
In addition to foundations and footings, commercial buildings incorporate weight bearing columns, walls, and beams as well. Some components are caste in place, while others are pre-cast in factories. High-rise buildings (columns) may require compressive strength of 10,000–15,000 psi to support the upper floors of the building and keep the tower straight.
Floors on multiple levels are often made of concrete, which is sealed to protect the surface, save energy, and simplify cleaning.
Addition concrete access roads, parking garages, surface lots, sidewalks, outdoor spaces such as pavilions, patios, garden pathways, and sitting areas, ADA ramps, and retaining walls complete the property features,
