In London, England, they have been assembling or pre-pouring entire office buildings off site for at least a decade.

They transport the finished parts to the job site before morning rush hour, install everything during regular work hours without blocking streets and with much less noise, then do the whole routine over again the next work day.

—” pre-pouring entire office buildings off site for at least a decade.”

Hollowcore slabs on a steel structure with precast exterior?
Still, need a topping on the floor? Pumped up?

The interior walls are still tin studs and drywall? CMU? ?

—”then do the whole routine over again the next work day.”

They add a floor a day, weather permitting? Low rise/mid rise?
