If you are planning to build or construct a new building or your own dream home or workplace, then you might be quite familiar with the different types of buildings and how are they built. But for normal some terms are absolutely unfamiliar like differences between residential and professional buildings in Port Lincoln.

What is a residential building?

A residential building is one which provides sleeping facilities to its owners. A hotel can fall under this category too, as not all residential buildings should compulsorily have cooking and dining facilities. It can be a flat, apartment or a resort or private dwellings, dormitories etc. Military barracks also fall under residential quarters and the site selection for residential buildings are always done thinking about the resources for the constant inhabitants.

What is a professional building?

Under commercial or professional buildings, fall all such buildings that do not provide sleeping accommodations, rather provide jobs, or are established for the welfare of the community. Examples of commercial buildings are offices, warehouses, schools and hospitals. The former two provide job and storage for goods while the latter two are made to provide well-being of the others.

What are the differences between commercial and residential buildings?

The key difference between the two will be that commercial building serves to provide storage or help run business, markets, etc for the working class whereas residentials provide sleeping accommodations, in one word, it provides shelter for you at the end of the day. Now there are various other differences based on some factors too. One of them is explained for you.

Based on equipment: To construct a commercial building and a residential one, you will require high powered machinery and cranes for the former and comparatively less powered equipment for the latter. The reason behind it is quite simple – professional buildings in Port Lincoln are a part of large projects, with large buildings that require greater foundation and high strength.
