that's what we called "Industrialized Building System". yeah, I believe so also. but at the moment, the cost would be expensive if to adopt IBS completely.

eg. cast in-situ concrete is cheaper than precast concrete or steel structure

eg. brickwall is cheaper than drywall and also durable than drywall.

IBS has been introduced and grants etc given... but it seems we are still making baby steps. Majority of it in my own opinion, big companies are too busy making money and not researching, inventing, etc... or supporting IBS. If not them, who else has the hundreds, thousand units of houses to build in an area, allowing the possibility of either precast or in situ.

But out of the many housing plans, mostly NOT IBS.
