Driving Factors

"Residential Houses to Provide Impetus to the Market Growth"

Residential uses are possible for portable structures. This is due to the fact that these structures are smaller than typical ones, which makes it simpler to transport and set them up in a desired position. Because of their size, they also take up less room. People who have just been evacuated from an area that may not be habitable any longer, such as after a natural disaster has struck and destroyed everything there, can live there in single units like this one. In order to save space, these constructions are typically composed of wood panels supported by metal frameworks.

"Numerous Application of the Portable Buildings to Enhance Market Sales "

Construction, warehousing, temporary office space, and other applications where conventional permanent structures would not be ideal call for the usage of portable buildings. Roofing materials like plywood or drywall are attached by screws through pre-installed wall studs into the joints of adjoining panel sheets, eliminating the need for heavy lifting apparatus like cranes. They are traditionally made from metal or wood framing covered with aluminum siding panels and insulation inside the walls. More exotic materials have been introduced in recent years, such as pre-assembled wall panels, oriented strand boards (OSB), composite boards (laminated veneer lumber), and laminated veneer lumber (LVL).

Restraining Factors

"Lack of Steady Ground to Impede Market Expansion"

Although portable structures don't need foundations, they could shift if the ground they are placed on freezes and thaws. Smaller structures could "shake," while any moveable structure could settle. This could prevent doors from closing properly. This issue can be avoided by giving the building a sturdy base (either footings or a concrete slab), while still allowing the building to be moveable. This is anticipated to Constraint portable buildings market growth.
