The Shear Wall System of Construction 

What makes Fianchetto Realty Development Corporation townhouse projects unique? 

Description 

The Shear Wall System of construction is a system, usually use for high-rise buildings, where no concrete hollow blocks are used for the structural parts of the building. It is what Filipinos call the “buhos” system where concrete is poured into enclosed steel-reinforced form panels; thus, forming a solid wall. The same system is used for all the floor slabs and the roof deck as well.
