What would be the increase in productivity as compared to traditional method?

It must be noted that in adverse conditions of earthquake and fire, failure of secondary connections such as MEP fastenings is more likely than primary connections, which is why ad-hoc solutions such as the ones described above often cause a loss of life when they collapse. To support lighter ceiling-suspended loads, an ideal support will contain:
(a) an anchor that performs successfully in both seismic conditions (these cause an increase in concrete crack widths), as well as in fire conditions;
(b) an engineered frame or wire-hanging support capable of withstanding fire hazards and seismic movement.
