The modular process allows
buyers to get exactly what they want in less time than traditional
methods. The result is a building that meets or exceeds the same
construction codes as a site-built project. One of the greatest benefits
to modular construction is the time savings.
Unlike traditional construction, the modular process enables the modular
builder to prepare the land, as the building is fabricated offsite in a
controlled environment. This process combines high quality materials and
superior craftsmanship eliminating time constraints that traditional
construction may undergo.
Buyers begin the process by
working with a modular building company and/or architect to design the ideal
building for their needs. Using pre-designed floor plans or custom
designs, buyers are able to get the features that they want while working
within their budget and timeframe. Once the design is complete, the
modular construction process begins. In a completely controlled
environment, modules are built to state building codes. Because weather
has no impact on the construction process, buildings can be completed faster independent
of the season or weather. While the modular process progresses in the
factory, modular builders are able to prepare the land by leveling the ground,
building the foundation and preparing the plumbing and electrical
systems.
The modules are moved from the
factory to the site by flatbed trucks and are then moved onto the foundation
using cranes or by rolling the buildings on to the foundation. Once the modules
are set, the seams are sealed and the electrical, plumbing, heating and cooling
systems are connected. When the modular building is complete, it will be
indistinguishable in appearance or quality from a site-built building.
