Prefabricated Construction Case Study
Section 1: Extent of the Study.
Section 1.1: Introduction.
In almost all the countries construction industry is one of major industries, which impacts greatly on the GDP. In any country, the construction industry is recognized as an economic regulator which plays a major role in the economy, providing significant contribution to the national economy. (Cheung et al. 2006).
Prefabricated construction has become the new era of construction with the development of the technology. With the modern developed economy, duration of a construction project and labour requirements can become problematic since the manual labour has become a scares resources. Therefore introduction of such technology in a country could settles any arising labour and time …show more content…
This is what has been used from the beginning of the construction industry. In the previous eras constructions where not done using metal and concreate And the building materials where clay blocks and mostley used lime to do the finishers. With the exsisting building materials it was very convineant for the builders to use the conventional type of construction since it use less machinery which where not available in olden days and other technologies. The conventional type of construction has become famouse among the builders since its convineace and the involment of low …show more content…
The current practice in the construction industry are labour intensive and has a significant risks associated with the market, site and weather conditions. N addition the construction industry has a lower productivity rate compared to other industries in the country though a countries economical status is shown by a countries construction industry. Prefabricated construction has involved manufacturing in the construction industry for a major part of the building and this will help the industry to be more predictable and improves its productivity and reduce the risk involved in
