I would like to have off-site fabrication merged into this page. That article links to this one, but they seem like the same concept. This being the stronger article should contain the other.Vinithehat (talk) 00:58, 19 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2009-10-19T00:58:00.000Z","author":"Vinithehat","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Vinithehat-2009-10-19T00:58:00.000Z-Merging_Off-site_fabrication","replies":[]}}-->

They're two separate things, I vote for no. Besides, there's no need.

These sound like related things to me. Can you explain the difference?

"The process involves the design and manufacture of units or modules, usually remote from the work site, and the installation at the site to form the permanent works at the site... Examples... are wall panels for homes, wooden truss bridge spans, airport control stations..."

"...the practice of assembling components of a structure in a factory or other manufacturing site, and transporting complete assemblies or sub-assemblies to the construction site where the structure is to be located... sections of walls, floors and roof are prefabricated (assembled) in a factory... transported to the site, lifted into place by a crane and bolted together.

What is the fundamental difference? If there really isnt one, I would rather just redirct that one into this one. Accoring to this source: [1] Off-Site Fabrication encompasses prefabrication.

I removed this material because it goes off on an unrelated tangent, and could perhaps be used in another manufacturing article or a furniture article minus the spam.

==New Technologies==

Prefabrication is not strictly reserved to Housing. Other applications vastly influenced by the engineering of "prefabrication" can be witnessed in the globally popular category of Furniture manufacturing known as RTA [Ready-To-Assemble]. While most are familiar with the "some assembly required" label that comes with all RTA furniture there has been little development done on new technologies designed to alleviate the now all too often frustrating stigma that comes with the 'some assembly required syndrome. There is an emerging technology out of Canada trademarked Qwikr™ hinges that has proven itself to be a launching pad for a whole new generation of NTR [No-Tools-Required] and RTU [Ready-To-Use] furniture. While this technology's first incarnation resides in furniture, it is demonstrating itself as a promising technology easily adaptable to Housing.
