About "On-site vs Off-site fabrication at construction site.." topic:

Offsite fabrication is the ultimate in value engineering for building services.  But many contractors prefer on-site fabrication of rebar & other things while others find that off-site fabrication is more advantageous.

Off-site fabrication itself is a topic of international interest and provides an effective construction technique in terms of quality, time, cost, function, productivity and safety. It is adopted worldwide as the ideal means of producing an immense array of elements from structural members, cladding units, bathrooms to fully-finished modular buildings.



So in this topic we can cover the principles, applications and implications for design and construction.
