Demolisher's Handbook #2 - Building 🏗️🧱

🏗️ Hello there, constructors

Welcome to the second part of our new series, in which we will tell you all about the most interesting, engaging and surprising features of Demolish & Build 3. You can treat "Demolisher's Handbook" as an introduction to some of the game's mechanics, as well as a helpful guide full of tips and tricks.

With the first part of our series covering the topic of a Destruction System behind us, we can now move on to the next crucial feature. Crushing, ramming, cutting and smashing are a huge part of D&B3's gameplay, but demolition alone is not everything! 😁

You will soon learn, that building skills are just as important... and that is what we will tell you all about in today's Demolisher's Handbook. Grab your hammers, everyone, it's time to build some new awesome structures!

Getting your construction site ready 🧐

Depending on your client's specifications, you will either build on a clean, empty plot or one where existing buildings need to be removed first. In both cases, thorough preparation of the construction site is the initial task you will face. An experienced constructor always remembers to take a good look around their surroundings and plan their work wisely!

When you are sure you are ready to kick off with your work, check out the task list on your smartphone. Your phone is an extremely useful device, thanks to which you can always check what activity you should do next. And so, since we're talking about the task list, let’s examine the challenges you'll confront on our sample construction site!

Step by step - from ground level to the shiny roof 🏛️

🚧 Preparation of the construction site

• Luckily, we're already done with that!

🚧 Digging ditches for the frame

• The next step is quite precise work, because you will have to dig even, often narrow ditches, that will be used during the next activities. May your hand be steady, constructor, as digging narrow trenches requires a lot of accuracy! A vehicle such as the Elevate EXC-12 Compact Excavator will be just perfect for this task.

🚧 Wooden frames

• Once the excavator has done its job, it's time to build frames along the excavations. For this purpose, use a hammer 🔨 but before, transport heavy boards with a suitably powerful machine, for example Elevate ES-12 Skidsteer.

🚧 Concrete pouring

• Now we will get our hands dirty! When the wooden frames are ready, we need to fill them with concrete. Thanks to this, our building will have a solid foundation and will be much more durable. Unscrew the valves and here we go!

🚧 Floor and wall construction

• Now that our building has a proper foundation, we can move on to constructing the floor and walls. Special flags with activity symbols will show you which tools you should use to efficiently build them. Depending on the type of building, these may be wooden or brick elements 🧱🌲 Remember that external and internal walls are built independently of each other and are separate fragments of the whole construction.

🚧 Ceiling and roof

• The culmination of our work will be the construction of a ceiling and then a roof. Thanks to them, our building will become a cozy, safe place, protected against wind, rain and other weather conditions that our client may encounter in the future. At this stage, a ladder would come in handy—let's hope you're comfortable working at heights! 😁

Sounds like a plan! 🤓

Of course, every construction site you set foot on will be different from the previous one, and the construction process itself may be different from what you've seen before. Well, the job of a builder is very varied and full of surprises! It's entirely up to you what tools and machines you use and how you approach the next construction order, as you are your own boss.

What's more, after construction tasks are completed, there may be unused materials left on the site that will still be of value to your customers. They may ask you to store them in a designated place... for an additional fee! Such bonus tasks often appear among varied orders, so keep your eyes peeled for potential additional earnings 🤑

The money you earn in this way can be used to develop your vehicle park, which over time will be filled with shiny machines, tools and attachments! Sounds like every demolition company owner's dream, right? Every day is a new opportunity!

September 11 is just around the corner 💥
