revolutionize high-rise construction
The construction of multi-storey high-rise buildings entails numerous financial risks, both for developers and contractors. How can one initiate an ambitious construction project while keeping risks to a minimum? Upbrella, an ingenious and innovative solution, is the game changer that provides the answer: start with the roof! The system, created by Boucherville-based firm 3L-Innogénie, allows developers and contractors to build a multi-storey building in vertical phases, and to add floors as demand grows. The benefits are real, since, in using this method, it is possible to deliver functional storeys while construction continues on additional floors. There is no longer any need to build to full height if spaces remain empty or if tenants have been lost! The savings are just as real too, as the faster work process can mean savings of up to 15% on the total budget of a 25-storey project. In addition, since Upbrella provides an environment that is protected with a mechanized custom roof, the system offers significantly improved worker safety and productivity.
