A prefabricated structure is a structure that is manufactured in manufacturing setup under controlled environment. Prefabricated construction is growing well in the construction industry all over the world. Today, prefabricated construction has become one of the major components of the developed countries and developing countries are in progress. In developed countries building construction are mostly prefabricated. So prefabricated construction has growth potential in the years to come. Now in Indian construction industry mostly buildings are prefabricated structure because of the various advantages like flexibility in designs, higher in durability, recyclable and cost effectiveness.
These prefabricated structures are known for fast and affordable type of construction and hence the demand for prefabricated construction is increasing in India. More than 80% buildings are being built in the country with the use of Pre Engineered Building technique. These prefabricated structure includes stability, low maintenance, economic, rapid construction and easy future expansion. By using proper insulation, puf panels and sufficient air changers in the building, more cost can be saved.
Prefabricated structures are crafted to be energy efficient. Steel and metal components blended with panels are made with high pre- and post-consumer recycled materials. The building components themselves have also an energy saving capabilities. They also have recyclable properties which makes prefabricated construction one of the preferred options in the market. An imperative characteristic of these structures are therefore that it is energy efficient and a smart choice of construction. Besides being cost effective, there are many reasons for the popularity of prefabricated structures.
