Pérez Guzmán Carlos Enrique

in factories in order to cut down on

construction time and lower the overall

cost of a project. In recent years, prefabricated

construction components include

tunnels, bridges and culverts.

So the question becomes, are

prefabricated construction

components right for your project?
