Byzantine operational techniques.\u00a0 Diminishing labor forces. Negative environmental effects.\u00a0 These are just a few challenges that construction, mechanical and electrical contractors must work against on a daily basis in order to complete projects productively and efficiently.\u00a0 So it is no wonder why business owners and contractors alike are implementing prefabrication, the process of manufacturing materials and structures for construction anywhere except for on-site. In fact, according to a recent study, 72% of contractors surveyed said that the use of prefabricated construction processes decreased project schedules by more than a week, and 37% stated it reduced the schedule by 4 weeks or more.\u00a0 And this is no surprise, considering the benefits of utilizing prefabrication that include: cost-effectiveness, improved safety, time savings, and a lower environmental impact.\u00a0 Overall, prefabrication benefits everyone involved in the process- company, contractors and clients- when time is of the essence.\u00a0 And every penny counts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prefabrication is cost-effective<\/a><\/strong>. While walls are still being built and floors are being poured, pre-planning allows for electrical rough-in items to be fabricated, boxed, labeled and palatalized. This saves money by speeding up time-sensitive dates and reduces labor costs. Additionally, vendors should be contacted early in the process to help guarantee the timeliness of deliverable materials; identify missing and broken parts; remove and dispose of packing materials and ensure any fixtures are ready for installation.\u00a0 And the cost-effectiveness is evident in the money saved during otherwise non-productive time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prefabrication also improves safety<\/a><\/strong>, lowers the impact on the environment and speeds up the construction process.\u00a0 By curtailing the amount of time spent constructing, the less amount of time the project is left unattended, thus reducing vandalism and onsite theft.\u00a0 Since the prefabricated materials arrive to the site already assembled, the construction of the project will be implemented faster, thus reducing a large amount of safety concerns.\u00a0 The process of prefabrication also lowers the impact on the environment. By utilizing off-site, climate controlled facilities, the consistent indoor environments of factories limits exposure to weather, reduces pollution, controls water usage and allow for scrap materials to be adequately recycled.\u00a0 And prefabrication saves time. By building with pre-assembled materials, installation schedules are accelerated, and the overall project time is greatly reduced.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The\nprocess of prefabrication has been around for a long time.  First seen in\nEngland in 3807 BC, the Sweet Track, perhaps the world\u2019s oldest known\nengineered roadway, brought prefabricated sections of timber to the\nconstruction site to save time and maximize labor.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
