What are prefabricated wood building systems?
Any building that contains significant sections built off-site, in a factory, and then assembled on site, is taking advantage of prefabricated construction. In some cases, distinct portions of a structure may be prefabricated and in other cases nearly all the components may be factory-built. Wood’s versatility, lighter weight, and ease to work with make it well-suited to prefabricated construction methods. Such buildings are generally constructed using one of two approaches—as a kit-of-parts or as an assembly of finished modules.
