Modular construction opens up a world of possibilities when you need more space, whether temporary or permanent. Consider the expertise of modular building companies in Pennsylvania and throughout the nation to meet your small- and large-scale space requirements, deadlines and budget challenges.
Conventional “stick-built” construction is time-consuming, expensive, and vulnerable to delays caused by poor weather, site preparation issues and other headaches. It’s not unusual for expenses to spiral out of control or for the work to take much longer than you anticipated.
But there’s a great alternative. Prefabricated buildings are quick to complete (about 40% faster than traditional design-bid-build construction), about 20% less expensive than traditional construction, and flexible enough to accommodate nearly any commercial, industrial, institutional, or government application.
Portable Construction Cabins
Thanks to shale gas development along the Marcellus and Utica Shale plays, Pennsylvania has become one of the largest producers of natural gas in the nation, driving economic growth in Williamsport and the region north of Harrisburg, PA.
But managing the safety and efficiency of thousands of employees who work in remote locations can be an overwhelming and expensive undertaking. Consider modular man camps to accommodate the needs of your crew for the duration of the project, and then relocate them as needed.
Modular man camps incorporate sleeping quarters, kitchens, dining facilities and showers. Most often used for firefighting, mining and oilfield crews, they are also well-suited to temporary military housing in remote locations. Modular buildings are available with and without restrooms, and can be installed in a matter of weeks at a prepared site to house anywhere from 20 to 1,000 workers.
Modular Portable and Permanent Classrooms
Overcrowded schools are always a challenge, particularly in our largest urban areas where budgets are usually strained. When the number of students exceeds the planned capacity of a classroom or other school building, both teachers and students suffer the consequences, which include an inferior quality of instruction, safety concerns, and extra wear and tear on facilities.
Modular Genius, located in Joppa, Maryland, is a leading modular builder that has supplied everything from single portable classrooms to entire campuses to meet the expansion needs of public and private schools in Philadelphia and across the country.
Modular construction allows private schools, public schools and corporate trainers to easily resolve expanding enrollment by adding classroom space, libraries, science labs, gymnasiums, bookstores and other functional spaces to any campus.
Portable and permanent modular school buildings are constructed with the same or better building materials compared to their stick-built counterparts, and to more demanding tolerances. They are about 20% less expensive to build, are reusable and relocatable, and meet or exceed building, safety and occupancy codes. They are also ideal in the aftermath of a fire, flood, tornado or other devastating natural disaster to get students back to normal as soon as possible.
Modular Office Space
Today’s state-of-the-art design and construction technologies enable companies in Pittsburgh and elsewhere to build modular offices that are both functional and attractive, and blend seamlessly into their surroundings.
