Prefab vs Traditional
Buying a prefab house and ge2ng it assembled on your plot of land, is gaining popularity in developing countries.
Purchasing a pre-‐made modular kitchen or bathroom unit, has become a standard feature in the construc=on of tradi=onal houses or buildings.
Across the world, the =mely construc=on of proper=es benefit both the constructor and homeowner.
From the owner's point of view, early possession of a home or apartment allows them the opportunity to earn rental income sooner and save on the interest on the loan borrowed from the bank.
The builder, upon comple=on of the project, can reinvest the capital into new projects and earn further income.
The tradi=onal 'brick and mortar' construc=on is giving way to prefab structures and materials.
Prefab technologies can be used to build homes quickly and cost-‐effec=vely, especially as tradi=onal construc=on costs con=nue to rise.
As the cost of borrowing is steep in developing countries and land developers are facing a liquidity crunch, =me is equal to money.
Prefab construc=on method is quicker and adds to the revenue stream of the developer.
In prefab technology, the project can be designed using architecture soHware.
Parts such as steel frames, wall, ceiling panels are custom-‐made.
The components are then brought to the construc=on site, the structure is assembled on-‐site, together with kitchen and bathroom, doors and windows units being fiIed into place.
The use of prefab techniques can also result in beIer cost efficiencies over the life span of the buildings.
Normally, pre-‐engineered homes show beIer performance, as assembly-‐line-‐produced homes are manufactured to stricter norms with cu2ng edge technology and reduce the number of manufacturing defects.
Using prefab method in buildings also gives flexibility in terms of expansion and modifica=ons.
