A modular building's lifespan varies, with some lasting as few as 20 years and others indefinitely—largely dependent on permanence and structural material.
Modular building units are wrapped in protective covering, transported from a factory by land or sea, and permanently installed at their ultimate destinations.
Modular dormitories are growing in popularity among colleges and universities seeking to keep up with growing demand for on-campus housing while eliminating the delays associated with traditional construction.
Volumetric modular construction is a branch of off-site construction in which six-sided modular units, as opposed to two-dimensional components, are assembled in a factory and installed on-site.
Deluxe Modular demystifies construction by clarifying roles and responsibilities, and increasing transparency about costs, scope of work and timelines.
Committing to modular construction from the outset and selecting the best material, manufacturer and contract option are the method's top considerations.
Curious about modular building methods? Here's a brief history of modular construction to help you better understand its current rise in popularity. Learn more.
Innovative modular construction firms can serve as the sole contractor required to complete a project, but may also allow for additional parties, if preferred.
Modular off-site construction maximizes efficiencies, saving time and money, since key building components are created simultaneously to those on-site, with less waste and cheaper labor via a factory assembly line.
The modular construction process and stages differ significantly from traditional methods and include pre-construction, on-site and off-site construction.
The two primary modular building materials utilized in the structural frames of most units are wood and steel, the latter possessing the advantages of superior strength, safety, durability and sustainability.
Modular vs. prefab? What's the difference? Prefabrication is a broad category, which seeks to maximize efficiencies. Learn more about the distinctions.
While productivity has been on the rise in virtually all industries, it continues to fall in construction. This loss of productivity is due largely to a shrinking workforce and an acceptance of waste – two issues mitigated by the Deluxe modular process.
Master Builders of the past managed every step of the pre-construction and construction processes to create beautiful and lasting building projects. Deluxe Modular has taken inspiration from this forgotten tradition to create our streamlined, modular process.
