Modular Construction the Increasing Choice for Classroom Space




The campus at Lowell Elementary School has grown.  This past summer, the Lowell Elementary School decided to have a modular building constructed to accommodate the growing student population.  According to a recent article found here.  

The temporary building will provide two new classrooms for a campus that has been functioning beyond capacity for some time.  The modular building is located just outside the schools back door and has a sloped roof, large windows, handicap accessible entrances and two classrooms equipped with a bathroom and sink.  Lowell Elementary school is not the only facility with this problem as many schools across the country face an increase in student enrollment every year.

Modular construction is becoming a very popular alternative to conventional construction. Modular units are built, shipped and assembled much faster than that of conventional construction.  Modular units can be custom built to coordinate/match existing facilities or pre-leased buildings are available for immediate delivery.  All over the world, educational facilities are making use of modular construction for permanent and temporary applications.
