Is Dry Construction Considered the New Era of Construction?

Out of two distinctive types of construction system-wet and dry construction, the wet construction system is primarily adopted worldwide.

Fremont, CA: The wet construction system is based on employing construction materials that are placed or installed in a wet state or other than dry state or condition. This includes the use of concrete, mortar, plaster, and liquid cement. On the other hand, dry construction involves using materials other than concrete, mortar, and plaster in building construction. It employs plasterboards, wood, steel, and prefab concrete panels. This method of building construction includes minimum usage of water during the process of construction.

Challenged by an unstable price of crude oil and a high cost of funds that is needed in order to execute building projects and the fast-paced nature of the business climate, the construction industry is under pressure to deliver buildings that are more cost-efficient and time-saving, hence the need to consider other methods of construction other than the traditional way of construction.
