The Building System Methodology

A Building System is a predefined approach to designing and constructing a particular type of building.

Having a well established, vetted and predefined process expedites the design phase and allows a project to use a proven approach which has already undergone intense iteration to ensure Optimal Building Performance in regards to both cost and function.

Newton Group currently has three building systems: 

 

  1. The CANADACAR Building System for Parking Structures

  2. The KiwiCondo/Commercial Building System for Multi-Residential and Commercial Office Buildings. 

  3. The Newton Bridge System

Building System

Standard Approach, Custom Design

Standardization removes inefficiencies in the overall process. When a certain design, detail or concept becomes "standard" it has gone through rigorous trials and testing to make sure that it has been vetted for optimal performance. 

When Newton Group integrates Prefabrication and Modular Construction, a true Building System takes shape with standard details, standard processes, and standard parts. . . all while still allowing for an overall customized design.

Standard Approach

Prefabrication and Building Systems

Newton Group envisions the efficiencies of the Manufacturing industry for the Construction Industry.

Having a predefined approach allows Newton Group to invest in prefabrication techniques for producing integrated steel and precast building elements to further enhance their Building System approach to construction.

The Methodology

Newton Group's approach to the construction process is different from the traditional project delivery method. Typically an owner will relay a set of needs and specifications to an Architect who will develop an architectural design and then find a General Contractor to build it. The General Contractor will then need to find a list of sub contractors for the design of Structural, Electrical, Mechanical, and Building Envelope components. 

Newton Group integrates the design and delivery! Newton Group brings all of the elements to the table from the beginning to ensure that the every piece of the design works together in the most effective way. This Full Process Optimization and Integration leads to Newton Group's ability to achieve cost effective Optimal Building Performance.
