Rethinking Prefabrication: How System 600 is pioneering a new Kit-of-Parts approach to Australia’s housing crisi

Prof. Mathew Aitchison and Prof. Daryl Patterson explained the ‘kit-of-parts’ system to housing that delivers the benefits of manufacturing while maintaining design flexibility in a recent article for prefabAus. 

“We’ve probably got the same ingredients that many others in the industry are working on, but we’ve got a slightly different recipe.” 

This new approach to building is central to Building 4.0 CRC’s project with Homes NSW, focused on developing strategies and methods to utilise MMC to deliver quality social housing faster.     

The article was originally published in the Smart Building Review Australia, the official publication of prefabAUS, Australia’s peak industry body for prefabrication and Smart Building.
