The current Covid-19 pandemic has hardly left any industry unaffected. The severity of the coronavirus has rendered huge losses to the industrial as well as commercial sector and has disrupted growth across domains. The crippling effect of the pandemic has plunged nations into depths of economic crisis and unemployment rates have soared all over the world.
And the worse,
the virus is growing at scale!
Among all the
sectors, the construction industry has also had to face its fare share of crisis
and a plethora of challenges remain ahead for contractors to preserve the
integrity of their projects and recover from the disruption.
The pandemic
and resulting lockdowns have aggravated the troubles for the construction
sector and as the demands of infrastructure development across sectors have
shown no decline, the mitigated availability of resources, manpower as well as
funding in the sector aren’t helping either.
Even though
the challenges we face are humungous, a ray of hope still remains in the form
of “Prefabrication”.
Counter challenges of Covid pandemic on construction with prefabrication
technology
The
utilization of off-site construction technologies such as prefabrication is the
only viable solution for the construction sector to overcome the current crisis
due to the pandemic. The ongoing pandemic has generated a greater popularity
for modular construction technology and it is being deemed to be the savior for
the sector.
Why prefabrication is a preferred construction method during the
pandemic?
There are
myriad factors and reasons to justify adoption of prefab technology for
ensuring revival of the construction sector. Let us discuss each of these
-
§ As the current crisis has shattered economy in the
sector, the cost-effective methods of prefabrication that ensure about 50%
savings in construction project costs are a viable alternative to adopt
§ With Covid pandemic risking health of personnel and construction workforce and social distancing being the prescribed precaution for the same, the automation and factory-manufacturing of prefab building structures that relies less on manual labor allows for possible prevention of infection
§ As the word faces a demand for swift development of
healthcare infrastructure, the optimum solution lies with prefabrication
technology. The PEB structure manufacturer in Greater Noida offers an
assurance of almost 40% reduction in construction project times and enables
speeded building development
§ As an unmatched level of accuracy and precision can be targeted in prefabrication construction, any wastage of materials and the resulting unnecessary expenses can be prevented
§ EPACK Prefab is one of the top Sandwich panel suppliers in Greater Noida and offers prefab construction solutions that guarantee improved safety of workers as a result of making social distancing possible
While the
industry has sure been hurt by the Covid-19 crisis, prefabrication technology
solutions present viable alternatives that pose an undeniable possibility of
revitalizing the sector and achieving balanced prospects of recovery and
growth.
