I learned, and maybe I am naive latest in construction technology:
1. Use of GI pipe with coupler and connector; H and A frame are no longer the "in" thing. GI pipes are more durable than H and A frames which easily are destroyed by rust corrosion and concrete drippings.
2. Use of shear walls, they are stronger and when used with phenolic formworks, do not need plastering and finishing
3. Space utilization - I saw how a 2 x3 meters room was designed so that it can accommodate 5 people sleeping. The inspiration for such a new design came from old caravan design. The answer is pull out and double and triple bread
4. Energy conservation: use of small houses, use of LED lamp and solar panels
5. Gypsum board ceilings with aluminum furrings. They are cheaper and easier to install vs plywood ceilings
