Types of Prefab House | Materials & Designs
There are many materials that can be used for prefabricated houses, of course, the same applies to the designs' availability. Making sense in terms of feasibility is essential, from the cost of constructing it against your budgeted finance, to the duration of erecting as well as the properties of each of them. There are definitely more than a single raw material within the prefab, from steel, wooden, cement concrete, aluminium, clay to many more. Prefabrication is also having


Disaster Resistant Material & Design | Planning & Budgeting
