What Is Modular Construction?

Unlike manufactured homes that are built to HUD Code, modular structures are built to the same building codes and requirements as other forms of construction, such as IBC or IRC. Modules are built in a controlled environment by expert craftsmen using high quality materials. Modules are inspected multiple times by independent inspectors at the building facility and approved before they are transported to the job site. Once they arrive, modules are assembled on site into a complete building according to the local and state code requirements. A qualified general contractor then finishes the building and turns over a completed project.

Advantages:

Better Value

  • Buying power and efficiency can lead to lower costs
  • Earlier completion means lower general conditions and less interest on construction loans
  • Engineering and design work included in the modular scope reduces architect fees
  • Faster occupancy generates revenues sooner

Environmentally Responsible

  • Less than three percent scrap means less material going to landfills
  • Tighter construction means improved energy efficiency and better indoor air quality
  • Minimal job site disruption

Higher Quality

  • Building in a climate-controlled environment reduces potential moisture issues
  • The use of tables and jigs for walls, ceilings, and floor systems guarantee consistency
  • Multiple inspections throughout the process ensure a quality product

Less Risk

  • A more predictable schedule due to off-site construction
  • Reduced potential for theft at the job site
  • Guaranteed price and fewer change orders
  • The chance of injuries on the job site is greatly reduced
