In general, prefabricated buildings are built in the primary environment and then assembled in a secondary environment. A prefabricated building consists of light and strong alloys, blades, wood and plastic materials. In recent years, the construction of these prefabricated structures has become very popular, and the most important reason for this is the lower price of prefabricated buildings compared to other buildings.
The idea of building these structures was formed for the first time at the beginning of the 18th century. After the ten-year recession of the Second World War and the need for housing intensified, the construction of these structures took place, and today we can claim that, more than 90% of buildings in most countries, especially developed countries, use prefabricated building materials. In addition to the low price, these prefabricated buildings have other advantages. Construction speed, portability, disassembly, and thermal and acoustic insulation are all special advantages of prefabricated buildings.
What are the Advantages of Prefabricated Homes?
Some of the pros of these modern prefabricated buildings include:
- Earthquake resistance up to nine Richter
- The ability to be installed in any climatic condition
- Excellent insulation against heat and cold, thus significantly reducing energy consumption
- Very fast fabrication and installation, leading to the quickest possible return on investment
- Very low maintenance costs compared to other buildings
- The ability to make any changes to the internal layout without material waste
- Lighter weight compared to traditional buildings, thus considerably reducing foundation costs
- The capability to be reused in another location without material waste
- Increased interior space due to thinner walls
- Construction and installation without leaving construction debris or causing inconvenience to neighbors
- Prevention of pest infiltration
