The development of a low carbon prefabricated house

Nowadays, due to the construction of new buildings, global warming becomes more serious every day. Thus, global governments are taking keen interests in the ways to reduce the building-related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Considering the life cycle of a building, it consumes a vast quantity of en...
