Building systems

Steel framing or masonry: where should you start?

Questions that help you compare building systems beyond the price per square metre.

A design decision

The choice of building system should consider the lot, design, available skills and how the home will be used. There is no single answer for every home.

Compare the complete system

Structure, walls, roofing and services need to work together. Compare proposals with the same scope, expected performance and handover conditions.

Ask for information you can verify

Ask the responsible professional about the structural design, specified materials, maintenance and inspection criteria. Schedules and costs depend on the conditions of each build.
