Why Build Modular?
Modular construction offers both the economic and environmental benefits.
Cost/Time Savings
By building modular, design and construction costs can be reduced by 20% to 40% and the construction timeline the construction timeline can be reduced by as much as 50%. Modules are manufactured off-site in a factory under controlled conditions, transported by truck to your site, and installed using basic mechanical methods (for temporary structures) or by crane (for permanent, semi-permanent or on-grade foundations).
Quality Control
Modular construction is precise, with accurate measurements that minimize waste and inspections throughout the process. Materials are carefully monitored and safely and securely stored, something that’s not easy to do on an exposed jobsite. The modules are also tighter and more energy efficient. In general, modular buildings are more durable than conventional construction because each module is engineered to withstand transportation and craning onto foundations.
Innovative Design Capability
Built of steel, concrete and wood, like conventional buildings, modular buildings can be designed to blend aesthetically with existing structures on your campus. State-of-the-art 3-D and 4-D design capabilities make them suitable for a wide range of residential, commercial and industrial uses, both temporary and permanent.
Flexibility
Modular buildings are popular with school districts because they can be relocated, repurposed and/or recycled when no longer needed. Temporary portable classrooms are particularly ideal during renovation projects. They can easily be moved between campuses as one building is completed and work on another building begins.
Eco-Friendly
Buildings are hard on the environment. According to the EPA, buildings consume much of our total electricity and are among the largest emitters of greenhouse gases. Modular buildings can compete in the same Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED)Â categories as conventionally built structures.
Customers who opt for modular construction can enhance their buildings with eco-friendly insulation, energy-efficient utilities and other treatments to reduce the building’s environmental impact. Dual pane windows, acrylic skylights, motion-controlled light fixtures, sealed lightweight concrete floors, and sprayed polyurethane roofs can also be incorporated to help reduce the project’s carbon footprint.
