Modular construction

Modular construction is a method of creating a building design by fixing or interlocking. In the normal construction process, people used to build the wall in the place where we needed to build the buildings. Modular construction is totally different from above scenario.

Walls could be placed in the wanted area.This process called as modular construction. 

Here are some examples for Traditional building method and the modular construction methods.

 

Some examples for Modular construction below ,

We can place an element or a whole structure with the help of modular construction method.

Why Modular construction?????

 

1. Less material waste: The needed elements were constructed in the manufacturer factory. So, they will reuse the waste. We can minimise the amount of the waste at the site . 

2. Reducing the pollution: Normally at the construction site, there are many type of pollutants will be release. Carbon dioxide ( Machine use) , Sulphate related pollutants( cement mixing ), Noise pollution.

we can reduce the amount of pollution by following the modular construction method

3. Weather / Climatic delays : Most of the construction delays happening with the climatic issues. we can reduce the delays by following this modular method of construction .

4. Safer construction method 

5. Durability 

Prices of the modular construction elements are little bit expensive.This is the one and only disadvantage of the modular construction method .
