Building Modular: Considerations in Off-Site Construction

This webinar is an AIA 1 LU course
Date: April 20, 2021
Time: 10am - 12pm PT

This 1-hr course, presented by Ralph Tavares, P.E., Trustee of the Modular Building Institute Educational Foundation, will discuss various considerations for off-site construction for those interested in learning more about this emerging discipline.

Topics include:

• The different types of modular construction

• Benefits of modular construction in terms of resources, time, and cost-efficiency

• Various state modular programs and building codes

• Delivery methods

• Structural considerations

• Site access

• Financing

Learning Objective 1:
The participant should be able to identify the different types of modular construction, select the optimal method and justify the selection based on project requirements.

Learning Objective 2:
The participant should be able to articulate the benefits of modular construction in terms of resource conservation, as well as time and cost efficiencies in comparison to site-built construction.

Learning Objective 3:
The participant should be able to successfully navigate state-level modular programs and building codes and formulate an approach to permitting and approvals.

Learning Objective 4:
The participant should be able to explain the basic project delivery methods in terms of design considerations and constraints, site access and staging, as well as financing of modular projects.
