Modular construction is the process of manufacturing buildings in a factory controlled environment. Modular buildings are constructed to meet the applicable building codes depending on the planned use and occupancy, as well as the ultimate location of the building. Buildings, or modules, are then transported to the site, installed on a foundation, sealed at the matelines, and connected to utilities. Decking or concrete flatwork is installed to access the entry doors. Final touches are put on the finishes, which can include enhancements such as a brick facade, peaked roof, or entrance canopy to give the building a more aesthetic exterior appearance.

Off site construction delivers fast, accurate and affordable solutions to permanent, temporary and relocatable building requirements for all projects. Compared to conventional building methods, modular solutions minimize time on site, reduce the number of deliveries and are virtually unaffected by weather conditions. Importantly, for a site where disruptions must be kept to a minimum, the modular construction process creates less noise and interference to the daily operation of the site and its occupants.

Finished modular buildings – whether offices, classrooms, schools, clinics/healthcare facilities, churches and others – may consist of a single module or numerous modules, and may be combined with traditionally-constructed elements for a hybrid approach offering the best of both modular and traditional.

MODULAR = GREEN

Modular building is inherently green. The process of modular building offers unique benefits that contribute to the sustainable building initiative. Read more!

MODULAR TIMELINE

The main advantage of the modular process is that the overall construction time is significantly shorter than a standard site built structure. Building fabrication and site work proceed concurrently, thus reducing the project timeline when compared to a “stick-built” project.

Modular Timeline

Our custom modular building floor plans and designs can accommodate a new or used, permanent, temporary, mobile or relocatable requirement.
“Our school district needed mobile classrooms for the first time. The school board and community are very demanding. [IMS Project Manager’s] expertise, willingness to help anyway he can, and efforts to contain costs made the entire project a success. The quality of the Innovative Modular classrooms is without compare…”
