Advantages of conventional building construction

One of the main advantages of conventional building construction is the robustness of the construction, which also offers excellent resistance to extreme weather conditions and fires. In fact, the fire safety levels in conventional construction are particularly high since, even in the event of a fire, the damage caused can be easily dealt with.

In addition, houses built with the conventional building method have the possibility for subsequent construction works, such as necessary demolitions. Finally, conventional houses offer excellent levels of sound insulation by nature, though other factors must also be taken into account to achieve an ideal sound insulation.

Disadvantages of conventional construction

Every construction method has advantages as well as disadvantages. In the case of conventional construction, there are certain disadvantages that must be taken into account before settling on this particular option. More specifically:

Conventional constructions require a higher social security levy.
As a construction method, it comes at a higher price, with the market offering conventional construction 30% – 40% more expensive than other building methods. At Smart Building we have the advantage of purchasing cheap aggregates from Sachinor S.A., thus offering it at only 10-25% more expensive than composite construction.
Difficult and costly damage repair. In composite construction, a pillar that may be bent or otherwise damaged is repaired quickly, with great ease, and at much less cost. Whereas in conventional construction the damage may require more work and consequently higher costs.
Harder quality control.
Longer completion time. For example, a 100m² residence requires approximately 240-260 days for the completion of the work.
