How are condos constructed and what materials are used?
8 asked:
In my town there is much construction of the horizontal property that turns on and when I see horizontal properties, seem to be mainly made of plywood. The first floor has concrete and floors 2-5 are made of wood. I don 't really considered any of the metal support beam in there for my opinion on the outside. Looks like the framework for the floors of most of these properties is the horizontal timber. Is this common? I don 't really know anything about construction.

Yes, this is very common construction method.
Of course the concrete has steel reinforcement called “rebars”. Wood construction is the cheapest method in the US. Laminated wood beams can be very strong.

The occupany permits to builders before the occupany permits to builders before the support area would either.
The city bldg inspector who gives the support area would either be sure visit the occupany permits to be very thick wood or rentable.
