SHOOT: I witnessed this sort of fast-track construction when I lived in South Korea.  You'd walk through the suburbs everyday and suddenly, apparently out of nowhere, a new house would have sprung up or a department store.  They build a metal frame which is quick to install then literally pump cement into a housing around the frame.  The downside is many buildings look exactly the same, very square, very squat, due to the fundamental use of these metal frames.
