TGE Top Down Technology Information

TGE Top Down℠ Technology is a construction and engineering firm specializing in systems integration focused on a revolutionary, but time-proven, building process for the construction industry. Our vision is to transform design and construction practices with faster delivery, more predictable schedules, cost effectiveness, increased safety, and a more sustainable built environment. TGE Construction's Top Down℠ (TD) building process brings a new approach to building, with a Lean “manufacturing” and (Lean Construction) Last Planner® approach and a structural improvement to the traditional building model. The TGE Top Down℠ building process maximizes the structural efficiencies of steel and concrete to create a strong and safe structural frame that weighs significantly less (30%) than comparable all-concrete structures and meets all applicable building and seismic codes. This results in an overall reduction in structural and foundations and other material costs. In addition to eliminating the need for a tower crane, the TGE Top Down℠ building process provides the design flexibility of a column-free interior space and column-free perimeter walls allowing an increase in building occupancy of up to 10%. The Top Down℠ building process is real evolution for construction, game-changing evolution, that transforms the industry landscape by drastically reducing the labor and material requirements of mid-rise and high-rise structures; cutting the construction time down to as much as one-third the time of conventional construction. TGE has reset the bar and forever changed the way mid and high-rise buildings are constructed. The TGE Top Down℠ building process has proven to provide a critical competitive edge for forward thinking developers and design teams looking for distinct and measurable differentiation from their competition.
