It’s time to Rethink Construction: 24-story modular high rise currently under construction in the UK 4. NAFIS Member ChallengesAvailability of funds – “making do with less”Projected increased student enrollment due to DoD restructuringMaintenance and upkeep of existing facilitiesContinued “erosion” of tax generating property by federal agencies(Summary: D.C. is giving you less money, more students and taking more tax generating property) 5. How MBI can help meet your challengesWhat is “modular construction”Analternative, off-site project delivery method used to construct code-compliant buildings in a quality-controlled setting inless time withreduced impact on the environment 6. Modular ConstructionAll of these advantages typically result inCOST SAVINGS for school districts due to a more efficient process, fewer labor hours, & fewer materials wasted 7. Process, not ProductThink of modular as a “process” of construction, not a “product.” Using this process, you can build all types of facilities, including… 8. temporary classrooms… 9. and permanent campuses . . . or permanent. 10. Advantages of ModularShorter Construction SchedulesAbility to deliver to remotelocationsMore environmentallyfriendlyConstruction off site=safer campusQuality controlled construction settingRegional fit, feel and looks to match environment 11. Shorter Construction Schedules 12. Remote Locations? We deliver anywhere! 13. Environmentally Friendly 14. And its not just MBI saying it…“The life cycle expectancy of modular construction is the same as conventional, and in a world where sustainability is gaining momentum each day, there are also several basic principles intrinsic to the modular construction process that make it more eco-friendlythan conventional construction.” American Institute of Architects (AIA)-“External Issues & Trends Affecting Architects, Architectural Firms, and the AIA” -February 2008 15.
