For anyone dreaming of a solid concrete home, these obstacles often create uncertainty and delay.
SISMO provides the ideal solution with a revolutionary prefabricated system that eliminates these issues. At the heart of the SISMO construction method is a three-dimensional module made from galvanised steel wire lattice.Infill panels are inserted on both sides, transforming the lattice into a closed structure, which is then filled with high-quality concrete. This intelligently engineered system combines the robustness of traditional concrete construction with the speed at which prefabricated elements can be produced and assembled.
The result? A modern home with superior structural performance, built in a fraction of the time required by conventional methods. SISMO prefabricated concrete construction offers mass customisation for building – each project is tailored to your specific requirements, from foundations and basements to floors and roof structures.
Discover the five key reasons why SISMO prefabricated concrete forms the perfect foundation for your building project:
With SISMO prefabricated concrete construction, you gain the strength of proven building technology without the typical drawbacks. Designed for modern building projects, it delivers results that last for generations.
Building with SISMO modules follows a clear, streamlined four-step process:
Step 1: Design and dimensions
Each project begins with a thorough analysis of your requirements and the site. SISMO modules are precisely adapted to your specific project needs – whether for a compact modern home or a larger building with offices. The freedom of traditional construction methods is fully maintained, while each element is optimised for prefabricated production.
Step 2: Factory production
In a controlled factory environment, the galvanised steel wire lattice is combined with the selected infill panels. Production under optimal conditions guarantees consistently high quality, independent of weather. Elements for walls, floors and other structural components are manufactured with high precision.
Step 3: Transport and assembly
The prefabricated elements are transported to your site and positioned using cranes. Special connections between modules ensure seamless joints. This phase progresses remarkably quickly – what takes weeks with traditional construction can be completed in days with SISMO.
Step 4: Concrete filling and finishing
The installed modules are filled with high-quality concrete. The steel lattice keeps any additional reinforcement perfectly in place and provides anchoring points for all finishing materials. After curing, your home is watertight and structurally complete, ready for internal finishing and external cladding to your specification.
SISMO stands apart from other prefabricated systems and traditional concrete construction in several ways:
The total cost of a SISMO prefabricated concrete home compares favourably with traditional construction. Where conventional builds often suffer from unforeseen additional costs due to delays and weather conditions, prefabricated concrete offers predictable budgets. Compared with timber-frame construction, SISMO scores higher in terms of durability and structural robustness.
The thermal mass of concrete, combined with good airtightness and the elimination of thermal bridges, results in significantly lower energy costs. A SISMO home is an investment that pays for itself through durability – minimal maintenance and an exceptionally long lifespan make later modifications largely unnecessary.
During your no-obligation introductory meeting, discuss project financing options and a return-on-investment calculation for your specific building project.
Factory production and on-site assembly significantly reduce total build time. Where traditional concrete construction can take months for the structural shell, a SISMO shell is often watertight and ready for finishing within weeks. The exact duration depends on the size and complexity of your project.
SISMO modules offer excellent thermal performance. The combination of insulated infill panels, airtight construction and the thermal mass of concrete ensures energy performance that comfortably meets modern building standards. Thermal bridges are eliminated through intelligent design.
Absolutely. The principle of SISMO is mass customisation – your architect retains full design freedom while the modules are adapted to your specific wishes. From sleek modern façades to a classic appearance: all styles are possible.
Concrete is naturally watertight and extremely durable. The galvanised steel lattice is protected against corrosion. Together they form a structure that withstands wind, moisture and temperature fluctuations – for generations.
The steel lattice provides anchoring points for a wide range of finishes. Externally, this includes plaster, brick slips, façade cladding or other finishing materials. Internally, finishes include plaster, plasterboard or various other wall-finish solutions.
Yes, the modular nature makes future extensions easier than with traditional concrete construction. The special connections are designed with flexibility in mind, allowing your home to grow with your needs.
