Have you ever wondered how we get all those materials and plants to the roof? The answer, especially in urban downtown centers, is usually CRANES! These impressive machines deftly move materials around construction sites, lift them to towering heights, and place them with precision. The Living Roofs, Inc. team relies on cranes to lift materials—including plants like this soaring Gleditsia—to roof levels. Our depth of experience working at heights ensures the proper transport, sequencing, signaling, staging, and handling of all materials. Whether hoisting growing media, green roof components, flooring, paver systems, or plant material, our team has you covered from the ground up. #cranes #landscapeonstructure #LRIconstruction #livingroofs #cranesareawesome #livingroofsinc #vegetatedroof #greenroofs #naturalinfrastructure

Shotcrete: It is a method of applying concrete or mortar using high-pressure air to spray it onto a surface. This method is commonly used for construction projects. Applications of Shotcrete Equipment: Mining and Tunneling: For structural support, lining, and stabilization. Swimming Pools: To create contoured pool walls and bases. Slope Stabilization: To prevent landslides by reinforcing slopes. Retaining Walls: Provides structural integrity and erosion control. Architectural Features: Used in sculpting artificial rocks, landscapes, and themed environments. It can be used as a substitute to conventional concrete. Increase in the demand for sustainable buildings is expected to fuel the utilization of shotcrete for construction purposes because Unique architecture, and complex shaped construction can be easily constructed using shotcrete.

Here’s the secret: a flat roof can only hold so much weight, but turn it into an arch, and suddenly, it’s a powerhouse! And here’s the kicker—adding some smart triangular folds boosts that strength even more! It’s like nature’s engineering hack, and that’s why it’s stood the test of time.
