Recent issues of Build have looked at component, panel, module and hybrid prefabrication. We finish the series by considering the complete prefab building.
A BRANZ project is looking at advanced residential construction techniques as a way to use new thinking to solve old problems.
In a new series, we look at the different types of prefab – from components, panels, modules and hybrid, to complete building – and how to apply them. First up are component-based systems.
Next in the prefab construction series we look at potential hybrid systems on offer – specifically hybrid modules + panel systems – from the benefits of standardisation to allowing for individual design elements.
The Build series on prefab continues, focusing this time on panel or two-dimensional systems. Both cost and time-effective, prefab panels can also have excellent thermal characteristics.
How do prefabricated building systems stack up environmentally and economically compared with traditional construction? BRANZ has been taking a look.
A new building system is looking to go well beyond the Building Code. It promises quick and accurate off-site construction together with warm, healthy, energy-efficient living and lower running costs for homeowners.
The Build series on types of prefab continues, this time focusing on modular construction. On some projects, this method can reduce build time by up to 50%.
