The use of modular prefabricated construction in the infrastructure sector is on the rise. Prefabrication technology is becoming increasingly popular among business owners because it enables rapid construction that is both cost-effective and efficient. In the modern world, construction is being revolutionised by the modular construction process. Modular prefabricated construction has ten major advantages, which is why it’s so popular.
1. The ease with which a project can be completed.
Prefabricated construction is typically 30 to 60% faster than traditional construction. While the foundation for the building is being laid, the building’s components are being constructed in the factory. Modules are installed one at a time, resulting in a quick build time.
2. Off-site construction
Components for modular prefab buildings are produced in a factory away from the construction site. Upon arrival at the jobsite, they are placed in place by workers who are trained in their use.
An advantage of off-site construction is that it does not suffer from weather-related delays. Construction is therefore of higher quality, with less disruption.
3.No interruption to normal business operations.
Building extensions can benefit greatly from modular construction. This is due to the fact that construction takes place off-site, which means that construction-related disruptions do not affect your day-to-day operations.
4. Ecologically sound
Traditional construction practises often result in a buildup of waste on the job site. It’s not the case with modular, which is built off-site. Steel is the primary material used in pre-engineered modular buildings, which does not harm the environment.
5. Effectiveness in terms of money
In the long run, modular constructions save a lot of money. For example, if your business necessitates frequent relocations, your portable site office can be moved along with you. Consequently, you don’t need to spend money on building offices at each location. Vendors may also be capable of designing their own buildings, allowing you to save money that would otherwise be spent on an architectural firm.
6. Aesthetically appealing.
It has been a long time since modular buildings were first introduced. They have evolved from the simple tin containers they were once thought of as decades ago. These days, you have a plethora of design options at your disposal. You can use modular buildings to build anything from schools to shopping malls to office buildings that are both functional and visually appealing.
7. Versatility of application.
Modular construction’s adaptability is yet another benefit worth noting. It is possible to transform an empty space in a modular building into anything you desire – an office, kitchen, gymnasium, classroom, music room, etc.
8. Structural integrity
To ensure their longevity, prefabricated buildings are constructed with the strongest materials available on the market.. Today’s modular buildings are built to withstand all kinds of weather conditions. Buildings constructed from fire-resistant materials, such as glasswool panels, are as safe as ever.
Prefabricated construction firm EPACK has seen rapid expansion in India. Prefabrication covers an area of 7 million square feet in our contribution. In addition to large industrial structures such as warehouses, factories, and sheds, we also build modular site offices, security cabins, mobile testing labs, and labour accommodations.
