Temporary buildings are ones that are only used for a short period of time, such as for construction work, trade shows, and festivals. Permanent buildings, on the other hand, are buildings that are used for their intended purpose and are expected to remain in place for extended periods of time.
As a temporary building, a temporary building is one that is built for a short period of time and then is taken down or removed. A temporary building can be used when you need to hold a specific space for an event, when you need a small gathering place that needs to be built quickly, or for other reasons. Temporary buildings can usually be built quickly because they don’t require heavy machinery or specialist equipment for their construction.
Temporary buildings are usually only there for a short time and are often only used for a single event or activities. Sometimes they are used for groups of people and events when there are a number of people or events that need to use space at the same time.
Permanency. The usual definition of permanency is a building or other structure that is likely to be constructed for a long time. It’s very different from temporary structures like tents or shanties.
A temporary building is built for a short while and then torn down and a new one built in its place. It is sometimes possible to bring a temporary building that can be reused later.
For temporary structures, it is important to consider the intended use and the duration that the building will be in place. If the structure is intended to stay in place for a long time, will it require intensive maintenance or servicing? Will the structure need to be moved frequently? How much will it cost to build and eventually tear down the structure?
If a temporary building is used for an event, it will usually be taken down after the event. A permanent building will generally be left in place and reused for many events over time.

This writing will highlight some of the characteristics of temporary buildings, and show the benefits and potential drawbacks of both permanent and temporary buildings.
