Advantages of Off-site Construction
Greater Speed
Modular construction is up to 40-60% quicker than traditional building methods with delivery times fully controllable and predictable.
Cost-Effectiveness
While modular construction has tended in the past to be more expensive than brick & block, this is generally offset by better construction times and a commensurate reduction in the cost of running a construction site. The Aloha Block Module innovative technology now reduces the cost of modular construction to the same level as traditional brick & block, bringing even greater economies.
Reduced Reliance on Skilled Construction Labor
Semi-skilled factory labor can be used during the construction of modules, reducing reliance on increasingly scarce skilled construction labor.
Safety
Modular construction has been proven to be a safer method of construction because there are fewer components involved than traditional methods.
Improved Quality
Building modules in a factory environment ensures improved quality control. Efficiencies in production and reliability are also achieved through fewer defects or call-back.
Environmental Friendly & Sustainability
Modular construction is environmentally friendly: less energy is generally required to develop the modules or off-site manufactured components. During construction, reductions in waste on site of up to 70% can be achieved. Sustainability is increased as sound and thermal insulation is improved.
Reduced Disruption
Reduced time on site means less disruption to neighbouring residents, community, society and/or businesses.
