  • Abstract
The pre-engineered town house system incorporates advanced technology, features and standards. The town house system is based upon proven building components, which are proven for on-site construction and which maybe pre-engineered in a controlled environment and delivered to site pre-commissioned. The pre-engineered town house also has the following qualities: short building time,superior quality, low weight, economy of scale, less disruptive on site therefore more sensitive to the environment, safer construction and reduced labour/requirements. The town house is adaptable to a range of possible configurations for construction and considers simple and modular design to cope with incremental expansion. Whilst maintaining the highest international standards, it will also provide the potential of training for quality employment for local communities. The town house is an Intelligent/Smart Home that will possess a computerised building control/management system and it will partner with steel and the telecommunications industries and be up to date with the latest advancements. The town house will be of zero defect quality and therefore be ecologically and environmentally advanced.
