As
it is not economically justifiable toincrease the thickness of the walls, and the resulting weight thereof, to a degree necessary to provide for good sound insulation,
the area of use of the Lift-Slab Method has been quite limited.
Buildings, for instance, multi-story apartment buildings, where a good sound insulation is necessary between apartments, are therefore built by conventional methods, with thick, heavy walls which provide good sound insulation as well as serving as support for the floor-slabs.
In this type of construction, if the Lift-Slab Method were employed, the building would receive two expensive bearing systems which is not economically practical.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a method by which buildings, such as multi-story apartment buildings, may be constructed utilizing the Lift-Slab Method while providing heavy bearing walls. Removable lifting columns are employed to accomplish the positioning of the various fioor slabs, along with their associated bearmined positions.

After all of the fioor slabs and their respective bearing walls, in their fixed vertical positions, have been subsequently moved to their final fixed levels in the building, the lifting columns are removed leaving the bearing walls as the sole support ofthe building.
