Time Saving Tip For Commercial Construction

(Image Source: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/05/Modular_Construction_Timeline.jpg)


Commercial Construction today is all about reducing waste. Whether its time or energy, commercial construction has been designed around efficiency. Probably the most efficient method leading the way is modular construction. Modular Construction can be just as customized to your needs as site built construction. The image shows just how quick modular construction is over site built construction. Why?

As you can see, the first two phases of either project take approximately the same amount of time. Both projects take equally as long to design and engineer, and both construction methods are under the same strict code guidelines needing the same permits and approvals. The real benefit is seen in the second phase. While the site is being developed and the foundation is laid, the actual construction of the building is happening simultaneously off-site in a quality controlled environment. This process reduces the completion time by 50%.

Another time saving tip goes mostly unseen. Modular construction is also a safer building method. Hundreds of hours can be lost when someone gets hurt on the job site. By reducing injuries on the job the project can be completed in a more timely manner.

So whether you are building a shopping center, office building, hotel, or convenience store consider modular construction. The sooner you get your project completed, the sooner you can start receiving your return from your investment.

  1. Interesting ideas on commercial construction. Maybe I will look into modular construction when I need some commercial buildings built. You are right, time is money. The sooner something is built, the sooner it can start pulling a profit.
