A new year brings change and new opportunities in many areas, and the construction industry is no exception. Despite negative factors—like a hectic supply chain and expected recession—overall commercial activity continued to grow in 2022, and is expected to finish the year strong.
Predicted trends play a big part in whether or not that momentum will continue into the new year. Here is what industry experts foresee in 2023.
Modular construction is quickly becoming a popular method within the industry. With this form of construction, pieces of a structure are built away from the actual site and then put together on-site, all while continuing to meet codes and regulations.
The most beneficial aspects of this process include shorter construction timelines since multiple crews can be working simultaneously and the creation of less waste overall. Additionally, since modular construction is done in a controlled environment, changing or unexpected weather is not a concern.
Building operations create almost 40 percent of global energy-related carbon dioxide emissions, so it’s no surprise that the construction industry is taking steps to reduce its impact. In 2022, 47 percent of construction projects will be considered green buildings and that number is only expected to grow. The qualifications to be recognized as a green building are as follows:
Many clients are becoming more conscious of their carbon footprint and want to do whatever they can to avoid contributing to the problem. Industry professionals have a lot to gain by investing in green practices because that is what clients want.
Over the years, there’s been a steady increase in use of digital technology and currently, Building Information Modeling (BIM), is gaining the most traction. BIM is the process of using various tools and technologies to conceptualize the project before construction starts. This technology has the potential to improve safety, efficiency, communication, and productivity throughout the industry.
Other technologies that have seen an increase in demand are 3D printing, virtual reality, and smart appliances integrated with Google Homes or Amazon Alexa. Because access to these options is becoming more accessible, consumers are starting to see these options as a necessity rather than a luxury.
