Hi everyone,
In my area (southwest west. australia) their are a lot of tilt up commercial buildings (buildings made of concrete panels formed on the ground and stood up as wall panels).
I have often thought that its only a matter of time until this form of building is incorporated in the housing sector. I see that some builders have had a shot at it in appartment type developments and the occasional house, but i havent seen any real push for housing.
Now i.m.o. this could be that many large builders are making their own products, bricks etc. and like to keep it that way.
Anyway i guess my question is can anybody see a trend toward this type of building creeping into the housing sector in their area yet, or is it only viable for larger buildings , warehouses and the like.
Any comments or thoughts appreciated.
