prefab modular homes australia 100b
prefab modular homes australia Designed by the gardener Joseph Paxton for the London Great Exhibition, it is a paradigm example of industrialised system build- ing. All modules, components and connections were manufactured in the factory.
Crystal Palace modules
All prefab modular homes australia components down to the window mullions and sashes were engineered to integrate natural ventilation, lighting and drainage.

⦁ Alternative (pre-industrial) proposals for the Crystal Palace involved traditional materials and methods that would have required a building time of three years.

⦁ J. Paxton’s prefab modular homes australia design was also an organisational concept. The flow of materials, production of systems and subsystems,
labour and prefab modular homes australia assembly were organised as a planned sequence of events. 31

Crystal Palace systemisation
The highly sophisticated systemised rotation of prefab modular homes australia labourers on and off site was key to the efficient production of the Crystal Palace. 500 m in length and 150 m wide, this extraordinary space was built by 2,000 men in six months.
⦁ In the typical work flow of prefabricated houses, all components can be assembled by unskilled workers.
Post-war prefabricated prefab modular homes australia housing
After the First World War, Great Britain was one of the first states to subsidise social housing programmes. Since there was a shortage of skilled labour and traditional building materials, housing authorities looked to prefab modular homes australia building systems as a way to build prefab modular homes australia quickly and effectively. These alternative building tech- niques were to replace labour-intensive bricklaying, which ac- counted for 31 % of the cost, and carpentry, which accounted for a further 26 %. Many radical new systems (such as precast con- crete frames or concrete blocks) were developed and built, but as in Germany, they were not as successful as anticipated, large- ly due to the lack of planning and development resulting partially from inconsistent government prefab modular homes australia support. Technical problems such as cracking, leaking and corrosion occurred and in both coun- tries the technical problems led to abandonment of the technol- ogy. The tarnished image of prefabrication persisted longer than the unresolved problems.
When the Second World War was over in 1945, the poor
existing prefab modular homes australia housing conditions, coupled with the lack of housing through war prefab modular homes australia destruction, called for a new attempt with system
housing, this time with a focus on temporary prefab modular homes australia. The Minis- try of Works in Great Britain initiated many projects, the first of these being the prefabricated bungalow, the Portal House of 1944, which was based on a lightweight steel frame. The exten- sive use of steel proved to be too costly so the Portal was never put into prefab modular homes australia production, but became a precedent for many other ex- periments with different construction methods. These included the Arcon with steel-framed sections and asbestos sheets, the Uni-Seco with timber prefab modular homes australia framing and asbestos cement-clad panels and the Tarran with a light timber frame prefab modular homes australia construction and rein- forced concrete panels. Mass production alleviated the housing shortage significantly: the Arcon group managed to produce a section in 12 minutes and produced 41,000 houses. Many of these ultimately outlived the predicted lifespan of 10–15 years, and even changed location as was the initial intention. The alu- minium AIROH bungalow was a significant and curious land- mark in mass production (32, 33). Built in a decommissioned aircraft factory, the prefab modular homes australia building components consisted of four fully fitted sections of a house that were delivered by truck and bolted
