Prefab clout

Article Abstract:

Crown House in Wolverhampton, United Kingdom, used prefabrication as its approach to the Nat West Tower refurbishment project, so that it could more easily provide the below ceiling services. The assembly lines had to be modified so that teams of eight made one of the three modules for the building. The project was so successful that the company has committed itself to a future with prefabrication, and expects to gain 50% of its turnover from its prefabrication factories.
