Yet, the tools, […]
BIM and Prefabrication: Fine-Tuning Construction Techniques
Prefabrication — or the offsite assembly of a component — is by no means new in construction. Creating elements offsite can allow for faster production and easier installation. In a time when construction schedules are shortening, this delivers much-needed support for the project’s timeline. The trick, though, is making sure that the prefabricated element will fit […]
