Factory Production Line
A Factory Production Line in modular construction refers to an organized system where building components are assembled indoors in a controlled factory setting, rather than at the final construction site. It's similar to how cars are built in automotive factories, but for buildings. This approach helps make construction more efficient, consistent, and less affected by weather. Workers perform specific tasks at different stations as building modules move through the line, much like an assembly line. This method is becoming increasingly popular in construction because it can reduce building time, improve quality control, and lower costs.
