Non-traditional dwellings are generally referred to as system built or prefabricated. To the general public the word ’Pre-fab’ in the context of housing conjures up a variety of mixed views and opinions. Many consider these buildings as ‘temporary accommodation’ constructed after the wars. However, sixty years on they still represent a significant proportion of our housing stock.

The aim of this document is to provide a technical overview of the most popular types of non-traditional dwellings. In addition, and most importantly to provide information on visual recognition construction and associated defects.
