1.1.Executive summary
Fabrication is the processes of constructing products by combining generally standardized parts
in a single or multiple processes. For instance the steel fabrication of metal structures through
the application of a wide range of processes such as splitting, twisting and assembling.
Fabrication will usually form a complete assembly made from smaller sub-assemblies for ready
with the readily available standard sections. Fabrication is usually achieved through computer
Aided design (CAD) which are usually programmed using the computer numerical control
(CNC) technology which has ability to communicate directly to the production machines. With
the application of this technology, the quality of the produced products is greatly improved.
Fabrication also ensures a more precise and faster erection of construction projects , which
is very crucial in high volume construction, minimizing construction costs through improved
material usage and reduced construction time. On the other hand manufacturing is the process
of converting raw materials into finished products. Basically, it is building or generating
something from start to finish. Manufacturing usually involves large scale production with the
use of chemicals, tools, machines, and other process. Manufacturing can be simply defined as
the course which the raw materials have to undergo before they are considered as final –
products. The main difference between fabrication and manufacturing is how much the much of
the process a job involves. Fabrication usually involves the assembly of different parts to form
arts of a product to be used in construction of the final product, while manufacturing is start to
finish course, from the generation of the parts to the final assembly of the final
product .Fabrication in construction is much better as compared to the traditional
manufacturing. There are many benefits associated with prefabrication in constrain and other
sectors.

1.2.Introduction
Name of the company: MODSCAPE
The selected company is Modscape situated in Australia. It’s the company of choice because it
specializes in the design and construction of aesthetically appealing and functional prefabricated
residential and commercial buildings. Modscape is located Melbourne city Australia. All there
prefabricated residential and commercial projects are constructed at their innovative
prefabrication construction Hub in Brooklyn. Modscape have completed a number of
prefabricated homes such Els Ternwick in Victoria, Kangaroobie in NSW, Ivanhoe in Victoria,
Lane cove in NSW among others. Modscape has also worked on a number of commercial
projects such as Schools, Hotels, Offices and retail outsoles. This study is going to focus on
Point Leo home located in Victoria.
Project: Pint Leo, Victoria.
The home was constructed, using 7 modules (elements), the home offers a 108sqm of internal
entertaining, 58sqm of external entertaining and 112sqm of accommodation. While the first floor
of 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, separate powder room and laundry, has been beautifully crafted, it
is the ground floor. The figure below shows Point Leo Home, Victoria.
