Building construction involves the process of constructing buildings and other structures. It begins with planning that takes into account factors like climate and available materials. The construction process then involves clearing land and erecting a framework or structure that gives a building form, stability, and allows it to withstand stresses. This framework is made up of identifiable elements arranged in a particular construction or organization. Once the basic structure is in place, walls, roof, and other components are added to fully enclose the building.
