Prefabricated Structures

 

 

Prefabricated and modular structures are becoming more prevalent in the construction industry due to the economic and environmental benefits. Consisting of the design, engineering, manufacturing, and installation of temporary, portable or permanent facilities, this methodology meets the clients specific requirements and complements surrounding and existing structures faster and at a lower cost than conventional construction. These structures can range from single buildings to multi-sectional complexes linking with other configurations.

The economic advantages of this construction method are the speed of erection, eliminating or minimizing the negative effects of weather during construction, fewer disruptions of operations and lower cost. Also, some structures offer the advantage that they can be built on sites susceptible to differential settlement. Since many of these type of structures can be reused, recycled, relocated, extended or resold, they present an environmentally responsible approach to improvement of land or buildings and often yield a return on investment far exceeding that of traditional construction methods. Projects can consist of supply only, or supply and install, to concurrent multi site installations with locations in varying climates.
