Prefabrication in construction has been available for decades. It has traditionally been provided in three major forms:
* Panelization—The use of interlocking or interconnecting wall, floor and roof assemblies fabricated on tables (on or off site) and assembled on building pads. Its greatest efficiencies come from repetitive component members used in fabricating highly repetitive plan solutions.
* Core modules—Wet or infrastructural modules that concentrate utility assemblies into compact transportable packages to be field joined with conventional or panelized construction components.
* Manufactured or modular structures—Modular structural boxes factory fabricated and field joined either horizontally or vertically to form larger interior environments and often involving selective field fabrication.
