The modular buildings consist of large modules. The modules, or units as they are called in the industry, can be assembled to meet the requirements of the customer. They were formerly temporary structures but their versatility and benefits have made them a popular choice for permanent construction.
Interesting Facts about Modular Building
In general, the sections or modules are manufactured under controlled conditions in a factory. This has the most obvious benefit that it is a structure which is unaffected by bad weather or external factors.
These modules are fitted at the factory with all of the necessary internal finishing, including plumbing, electrical, heating and other finishes. The individual modules are then transported to the site by crane.
In general, modules with walls and ceilings are built in the factory. Before leaving site, the appliances and carpets will also be carefully fitted. Here is how modular building are actually assembled.
Cranes are used to carefully lower each module into its correct location.
The two are joined end to end and side by side
Lifts, walls and stairs are used to create the overall layout of the interior, according to customer design requirements.
The modular structure can be extended if necessary.
The modular building can be used in a variety of ways. Modular buildings can be used as meeting rooms, offices, in schools, hospitals and healthcare facilities. They are also suitable for churches. They are now considered to be one of the most advanced alternatives for traditional construction.
Prefabricated Constructions: Benefits
Modular buildings can be constructed up to 50% quicker than traditional structures.
Modular buildings are made of a variety of materials, including bricks, wood and steel. These same materials can also be used in traditional building methods.
These buildings are constructed by highly-skilled and well-trained workers. This ensures that the work is done in a safe, professional manner.
The majority of the construction is done offsite, so there are no or minimal disruptions on-site.
More than 90% of construction takes place in controlled environments. This means the construction will not be affected by weather or vandalism that could result in depletion or a slowdown of the process.
Exteriors can easily be customized with multiple doors or windows, different roof treatments and a variety of roofing options.
Constructions that are more efficient and faster will allow you to reap the benefits of their constructions much quicker than if they were constructed using conventional methods.
