What Is a T Type Prefabricated House?
A T-Type Prefabricated House is an upgraded modular building system that improves on the proven K House concept by adding a distinctive sloped roof design that naturally sheds rain and snow — making it the ideal solution for wet climates, mountain regions, and long-term residential or commercial applications.
E-TOM T-Type Prefabricated Building uses high-tensile galvanized steel profiles as its main structural frame, combined with a choice of insulated sandwich panels for walls and roof. Every component of the T Type Prefab House arrives pre-punched, numbered, and ready for fast bolt assembly on site — no welding required. A standard crew can complete one T-Type Modular Building unit within a single day, significantly reducing labor costs and project timelines compared to traditional construction.
Available in five standard span widths from T06 to T18, the Prefabricated T-Type House can be customized in length, height, wall panels, roof materials, and interior layout to meet the exact requirements of any project — from a single T-Type Prefab Office to a complete T-Type Construction Camp for thousands of workers.

T Type Prefabricated House Roof Options
Color-Coated Steel Roofing & FRP Panels
Color-coated steel panels, also known as pre-painted or corrugated steel panels, are lightweight and durable roofing and wall materials. Their protective coating provides good resistance to corrosion, weather conditions, and fire, while making them easy to install and maintain. They are widely used in prefabricated buildings, warehouses, workshops, commercial buildings, and other structures.
FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic) panels are a practical option for roofs and walls where natural daylight is required. Their translucent design allows sunlight to enter the building, reducing the need for artificial lighting and helping improve energy efficiency.
Both materials can be selected according to your project requirements, and FRP panels can also be combined with color-coated steel roofing to provide both durability and natural lighting.
Ceiling + PE Film + Glass Wool + Color-Coated Steel Roofing Sheet
This roofing system combines a ceiling layer, PE film, glass wool insulation, and a color-coated steel roofing sheet to provide effective thermal insulation and weather protection.
Glass wool helps reduce heat transfer, keeping the interior more comfortable in hot and cold weather, while the PE film helps protect the insulation layer from moisture and dust. The color-coated steel roofing sheet provides a lightweight and durable outer layer with good resistance to weather, corrosion, and fire.
The insulation thickness and roofing materials can be customized according to the local climate, building application, and project requirements.
Ceiling + Sandwich Roof Panels
Sandwich roof panels consist of two metal sheets bonded to an insulated core, such as PU (polyurethane) foam or rock wool. They provide excellent thermal insulation, fire resistance, and weather protection while remaining lightweight and easy to install.
This roofing option is suitable for prefabricated buildings, modular houses, warehouses, workshops, and other buildings where good insulation and efficient installation are required. The panel type and thickness can be customized according to the local climate and project requirements.
Ceiling + Sandwich Panels + Asphalt Shingles
This roofing system combines a ceiling layer, insulated sandwich panels, and asphalt shingles to provide a practical and attractive roofing solution. The sandwich panels provide thermal insulation and structural support, while the asphalt shingles add an appealing exterior finish and an additional layer of weather protection.
This combination offers a good balance of insulation, durability, appearance, and cost, making it suitable for prefabricated buildings, modular homes, cabins, and residential projects. The sandwich panel type and asphalt shingle color can be customized according to the local climate and project requirements.
Ceiling + PE Film + Glass Wool + Cement Board + Asphalt Shingles
This roofing system combines PE film, glass wool insulation, cement board, and asphalt shingles to provide a practical and cost-effective roofing solution. Glass wool offers good thermal insulation, lightweight construction, and fire resistance, while the cement board and asphalt shingles provide additional protection and an attractive exterior finish.
With a range of colors and styles, asphalt shingles are easy to install and suitable for different architectural designs. This combination is ideal for prefabricated buildings, modular homes, portable cabins, and residential projects where insulation, appearance, and cost efficiency are important.
T Type Prefab House Wall Options
E-TOM T-Type Prefabricated House offers a wide range of wall construction options to suit different climates, budgets, and aesthetic requirements. The first four options use simple screw-fixed installation, saving labor costs and construction time. The last four options require painting for a more refined finish, delivering superior aesthetics for permanent residential and commercial applications.
Option 1 - Color Steel Sheet
Title: Color Steel SheetDescription:The simplest and most economical wall treatment for T-Type Prefab Buildings. Without an insulation layer, this option is best suited for non-residential applications including garages, agricultural sheds, simple warehouses, factories, and other industrial buildings where thermal comfort is not required.
Option 2 - Sandwich Wall Panel
The most recommended wall option for T-Type Prefabricated House residential and worker accommodation applications. Sandwich panels deliver superior thermal insulation, fast installation, lightweight construction, and excellent eco-friendly performance.
Option 3 - Color Steel + Rock Wool + Color Steel
A cost-effective alternative to the sandwich wall panel that retains similar thermal insulation advantages. This option is particularly suitable for T-Type Prefab Building projects where local labor costs are low and budget is a primary concern. E-TOM recommends the sandwich wall panel for most applications, but this option provides a practical alternative for budget-sensitive projects.
Option 4 - Bamboo Fiberboard + Rock Wool + Color Steel
An eco-friendly and visually attractive wall option ideal for T-Type Portable House eco-tourism, resort, and glamping applications. Bamboo fiberboard delivers a premium natural appearance with superior environmental credentials.
Option 5 - Paint + Cement Board + Rock Wool + Cement Board + Paint
A premium wall system delivering excellent waterproofing, sound insulation, and fire resistance. The cement board partition wall remains dry even in humid weather conditions and provides superior sound insulation performance compared to conventional brick walls.
Option 6 - Paint + Gypsum Board + Rock Wool + OSB + Decorative Board
The premium wall system for high-end T-Type Prefab House residential and hospitality applications. This multi-layer construction delivers superior sound insulation, thermal performance, and a beautiful finished appearance.
