Wildfires, tornadoes and hurricanes frequently destroy or damage vital infrastructure. These calamities often render crucial buildings unusable. Local residents need medical services and disaster relief shelters as soon as possible. Emergency responders also require housing, offices and places to store their supplies. Neither group can afford to wait for builders to carry out conventional construction projects. Ongoing severe weather and material shortages could make it difficult to establish new government offices or housing complexes. Fortunately, modular building companies like Affordable Structures offer a proven solution that cuts costs and expedites the process.
Numerous Options
Prefabricated buildings come in countless shapes and sizes. People in disaster areas can benefit from temporary emergency shelters, medical facilities and warehouses. Modular construction enables government agencies or humanitarian aid organizations to set up field offices within days. Such buildings are relatively easy to move elsewhere when necessary. This helps local authorities quickly adapt to changing conditions in an emergency situation. Prefabrication also expedites the process of replacing destroyed structures that have long-term purposes. For example, workers can complete an entire modular school building in as little as two weeks.
Rapid Response
In comparison to traditional methods, it often takes half as long to construct prefabricated buildings. Manufacturers assemble portable emergency housing and offices inside of factories, so inclement weather normally doesn’t cause delays. Workers may prepare a construction site as the manufacturing plant puts together a new structure. In some situations, clients hasten the process by ordering buildings that have already been assembled. Trucks or cargo ships can quickly transport them to disaster zones at any time.
Economical
Off-site assembly usually cuts costs by about one-fifth. Factory-based construction makes this possible by promoting greater efficiency and more predictable working conditions. For instance, it becomes difficult for thieves to steal components from partially constructed buildings when they’re inside of a manufacturing plant. Thanks to top-notch materials and thorough inspections, today’s prefabricated disaster relief shelters feature excellent quality despite their low prices. Customers also have the option to buy, rent or lease them from companies like Affordable Structures. This minimizes the cost of buildings with temporary purposes.
