| 520 | _aThe increasing demand for housing, coupled with wide concerns over the need to improve performance, has created a powerful case for use of offsite technologies. However, to date, the industry has been slow to innovate and adopt offsite technologies, which has inhibited achieving a step improvement in productivity and quality of housing supply. This study forms part of a three-year research project on the applications of innovative building technologies in housing construction. It reports the findings of a survey of the top 100 housebuilding firms regarding the use of Offsite Modern Methods of Construction (Offsite-MMC). The respondent firms together contribute more than 30% to the total housing unit completions in the industry. This brief summary report outlines the key findings and recommendations of the research to date. | ||
