Description: The use of prefabrication in the construction industry has been on the rise in the last decade for larger buildings and components like washrooms; in the residential sector it has been used in new subdivisions as a new standard. The next logical step for this process would allow for more customization in the prefabrication process which would open this approach to one-off projects and potentially be more cost-effective for the custom homes and renovation sectors. Prefab Construction Topics: - What are the changes to the schedule? Labour efficiency, bad weather, etc. - How do the costs change? - Is material management better? - What are the restriction of the designs? - How does the site location and logistics matter? - Does quality get better? - Do you retain your employees more?
