MOD | FAB The Future of Pre-Fabrication – Education Focus

State-of-the-art construction technologies are changing the way we build. By transitioning from field construction to offsite manufacturing and field assembly, pre-fabrication provides a more effective and efficient solution to control initial costs, maximize material and labor resources, and drive predictability and consistency.

Prefabricated construction is much more than what we may have thought- more than the modular housing trailers, or volumetric apartments of the recent past. The vast ecosystem of prefabrication offers custom solutions for almost any project, in most project delivery systems.

Join us for a presentation that will cover:

• Understanding how the design team can assist in the planning for pre-fabrication alternatives.

• How to effectively utilize prefabrication in the preconstruction and design process, understanding timing and optimization of large-impact decisions.

• Case study: An evolution of prefabrication and panelized construction. Discussion of 3 student housing projects; applying prefabrication experiences from 2 UC Davis projects to a future project at Sierra College.
