Framed Construction

It is pleasing to see KPA Architect’s portfolio of Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) work continuing to grow, with fifteen projects underway.

The projects vary in scale from single residential to campus-style grouped dwellings and modular transportable homes. Interestingly, the common link in all the projects is the shift to framed construction. Explaining the trend to framed construction, KPA Architects Director, Todd Paterson, states: “There has been a significant shift away from traditional brick construction methodologies due to cost constraints. Framed construction also makes it easier to meet the high specifications required for NDIS certification of SDA housing”.
