In the United States, modern house-construction techniques range from light-frame construction,
all the way to Adobe or sometimes rammed-earth construction. Some areas use brick almost exclusively, and quarried stone has long provided exterior durability and beauty. To some extent, aluminum and steel have displaced some traditional building materials.

Increasingly popular alternative construction
materials include insulating concrete forms and structural insulated panels, and now light-gauge steel framing and heavy-gauge steel framing are readily available.

But there is one thing that is the same about all of these building materials; whichever you choose, Route 9 Design Build can help you design and build your dream home or commercial property to your specification.
