Prefabricated buildings

CPC v2.1 Code: 387

About prefabricated buildings

cpc code 387 covers the production of prefabricated buildings, a crucial component of the construction industry. These modular structures are manufactured off-site and then assembled at the final location, offering a range of benefits such as speed, cost-effectiveness, and customization. Prefabricated buildings play a vital role in meeting the growing demand for housing, commercial spaces, and infrastructure, particularly in regions with limited resources or challenging terrain.

Production process

The production of prefabricated buildings typically involves a series of standardized steps. First, the design and engineering of the building components are carried out, ensuring compliance with relevant building codes and regulations. The components, such as walls, floors, and roofs, are then manufactured in a controlled factory environment using a range of techniques, including 3811 Sawmilling and planing of wood, 2511 Manufacture of rubber tires and tubes, and 2361 Manufacture of concrete products for construction purposes. Finally, the prefabricated components are transported to the construction site and assembled, often with the aid of specialized equipment and skilled labor.

Production inputs

The production of prefabricated buildings requires a variety of inputs, including raw materials such as wood, steel, concrete, and various types of insulation and finishing materials. Additionally, specialized machinery and equipment, such as 2822 Manufacture of lifting and handling equipment, are essential for the manufacturing and assembly processes. The industry also relies on skilled labor, including engineers, technicians, and construction workers, to ensure the quality and efficiency of the final product.

Production outputs

Prefabricated buildings produced under cpc code 387 are primarily consumed by the construction industry, where they are used for residential, commercial, and industrial applications. The output of this industry may also be used in the production of 4220 Construction of utility projects and 4290 Construction of other civil engineering projects, as prefabricated structures can be integrated into larger infrastructure projects.
