  1. The Modular Building Institute is pleased to present members of NAFIS with an opportunity to: RETHINK CONSTRUCTION

  2. CONVENTIONAL “WISDOM” CONVENTIONAL CONSTRUCTION: Over Budget Time Delays Unsafe Jobsites Materials Waste Inconsistent Quality Unpredictable Workforce Days of Rework Bad Weather Equipment Theft and Damage

  3. It’s time to Rethink Construction: 24-story modular high rise currently under construction in the UK

  4. NAFIS Member Challenges Availability of funds – “making do with less” Projected increased student enrollment due to DoD restructuring Maintenance and upkeep of existing facilities Continued “erosion” of tax generating property by federal agencies (Summary: D.C. is giving you less money, more students and taking more tax generating property)

  5. How MBI can help meet your challenges What is “modular construction” Analternative, off-site project delivery method used to construct code-compliant buildings in a quality-controlled setting inless time withreduced impact on the environment

  6. Modular Construction All of these advantages typically result in COST SAVINGS for school districts due to a more efficient process, fewer labor hours, & fewer materials wasted

  7. Process, not Product Think of modular as a “process” of construction, not a “product.” Using this process, you can build all types of facilities, including…

  8. temporary classrooms…

  9. and permanent campuses . . . or permanent.

  10. Advantages of Modular Shorter Construction Schedules Ability to deliver to remotelocations More environmentallyfriendly Construction off site=safer campus Quality controlled construction setting Regional fit, feel and looks to match environment

  11. Shorter Construction Schedules

  12. Remote Locations? We deliver anywhere!

  13. Environmentally Friendly

  14. And its not just MBI saying it… “The life cycle expectancy of modular construction is the same as conventional, and in a world where sustainability is gaining momentum each day, there are also several basic principles intrinsic to the modular construction process that make it more eco-friendlythan conventional construction.” American Institute of Architects (AIA) -“External Issues & Trends Affecting Architects, Architectural Firms, and the AIA” -February 2008

  15. BD&C Survey Results – October 2008

  16. Rethink Construction

  17. Is this Modular?

  18. 100,000 Sq Ft School in PA12 months ahead of schedule

  19. California – Project Frog

  20. Two Story, Masonry Exterior

  21. High Performance Classrooms

  22. The Classroom of the Future? Designed by Perkins +Will

  23. Student Designed

  24. Summary Faster Greener Less Cost More Predictable More Flexibility Remote Locations

  25. Closing Thought “There is nothing wrong with change, if it is in the right direction.” – Sir Winston Churchill RETHINK CONSTRUCTION!
