Modular and prefabricated building systems demand materials that are not only strong and durable but also dimensionally stable, lightweight, and compliant with global fire and energy regulations
During construction, it is common for exterior sheathing boards to be installed before the final façade or cladding system is applied. This raises a critical question for contractors and project managers
Permanent formwork systems are increasingly preferred over traditional removable formwork because they remain integrated into the structure, adding long-term durability, fire protection, and aesthetic or functional value.
Fire safety is one of the most critical challenges in modular construction. Unlike conventional concrete buildings, modular and prefabricated structures rely heavily on panelized wall systems, where incorrect material selection can significantly increase fire spread risk
Container homes are rapidly growing in popularity as modular, durable, and modern living solutions. To turn a steel container into a comfortable and safe living environment, selecting the right cladding and lining material is critical.
As demand for zero-energy and high-performance modular buildings increases, selecting the right building envelope materials becomes critical. While fiber cement boards are widely
