Stick-based Prefab
Stick-based prefab, also known as componentised or pre-cut prefabrication, refers to lengths of timber which are pre-cut, pre-sized or pre-shaped puzzle-type pieces brought to site for assembly. It includes components that are relatively small-scale items and are invariably assembled offsite, such as light fittings, windows, and door furniture. This also translates into structural members (trusses and frames), fittings, fixtures, and joinery is cut, sized or shaped away from the site for assembly on site.
Generally, by using prefabrication technology, we can produce higher quality structures and innovative buildings, improve efficiency, precision and productivity, reduce time frames and cost, and diminish construction waste for lower energy consumption and healthier buildings. Moreover, stick-based prefabrication also has a range of outstanding advantages:
- The relatively small-scale components are able to facilitate delivery and transport;
- Allowing customisation and infinite configuration options are of benefit to creating innovative homes;
- Fast assembly can significantly decrease time frames and labour costs.
Overall, using prefabrication technology can help us achieve a safe, high-quality building with the advantages of high-sustainability and fast assembly.
