Abstract
One of the most important advancements to reduce the impact on the environment is off-site manufacturing over traditional site construction, often referred to as pod construction. This process can reduce the carbon footprint at a construction site by reducing the transport needed to deliver materials to job sites. This pod construction is more than offset by the savings and improvement that a factory-controlled production can offer.
