Modular construction takes much of the construction process off of the site and into our state-of-the-art indoor facility, virtually eliminating the delays, overages, and waste of onsite construction.
Building on a traditional construction site can be far more time consuming and costly. Below is a project comparison timeline between building traditional versus building modular. These modular offices have the same functionality and are a great alternative for streamlining projects.
We start with the designing, preparations, and approvals process – the pre-construction stage.
While we break ground and prepare your site, the units of your building – the modules – are already taking shape as they move down our two quarter-mile production lines in our indoor, climate-controlled facility.
Once your site it complete, your modular units are shipped, assembled, and installed to create your perfect building – on time and on budget. The construction stage is where the modular process stands out as the future of construction
All modular buildings have two basic components:
1. the on-site component, and the off-site component. The on-site component consists of all the work that needs to be done on the project site. This usually includes site work, earthwork, utilities, infrastructure, foundations, and other below-grade structures. If applicable, it may also include above-grade structures, including, cellars, basements, parking facilities, plinths and platforms.
2. The off-site component consists of modular units built in the a factory and then transported to, and assembled upon the platform constructed on-site.
What sets modular construction apart from traditional methods is that as much as 80-90% of the total construction takes place within a controlled facility.
Once all building materials are ordered and pre-cut according to the design, modular unit construction breaks down into 6 basic steps:
