Prefabricated Buildings: The Solution to Affordable Housing?

Prefabricated Buildings

What is the scope of use of prefabricated structures?A prefabricated building is a great option for time and budget-conscious companies looking to expand, those wanting to create a new temporary or permanent site, or for schools or facilities needing additional classrooms or space quickly. Modern materials and high technology now ensure that prefab structures often outperform conventional buildings and present a viable, cost-effective, and timely alternative. The tables have turned, and the trend towards modular construction is growing as the benefits and applications of prefabricated structures become common knowledge.

Many global locations are experiencing a surge in construction and infrastructure development, and for the companies managing these projects, providing staff and labourers with adequate on-site facilities is essential. A prefabricated building is ideal in such circumstances, as it can be used on temporary or permanent sites and erected and dismantled as necessary. A wide range of modular constructions is available, each of which can be customised to suit its purpose, and linked, stacked, or placed alone, depending on the need. These highly durable and versatile buildings are designed and manufactured remotely, using precision technology to minimise waste and ensure consistent quality. They are then specially packed and transported to the site, where they can be assembled swiftly on light foundations and quickly connected to the local electric supply and utilities using the pre-cut sockets. This results in significant time and cost savings.

The construction industry is just one sector where using a prefabricated building is now the norm. Today, modular structures are commonplace in most environments, including schools, sporting arenas, industrial and mining sites, military and defence facilities, and commercial forecourts. Smaller prefabricated buildings are also available and often used as guard houses, drive-through payment points, pop-up shops, cafes, and even home or garden gymnasiums.

The future of prefabricated buildings?

There is no doubt, the future is looking bright for modular construction. Aside from the obvious financial and time savings you can enjoy by ordering a prefabricated building, the sustainability benefits also bode well for the sector’s future. The remote building process means far less waste ends up in landfills, and the light foundations needed to place the structure mean that the land can recover quickly if the building is removed or relocated. Carbon emissions are also minimal, and each building can be optimised for thermal and acoustic performance, meaning you can enjoy long-term savings on energy and utility bills.
