A Turkish construction firm, Dorce Prefabrik, successfully implements prefabricated modular structures, a sustainable and innovative construction method that has evolved with a modern construction method and technology in its local and international projects.
Modular buildings are formed by the combination of one or more prefabricated modules, according to a press release by the firm on Friday.
They are also used as temporary structures in projects. They can be easily disassembled and moved to another site without any foundation.
While various designs can be applied according to all kinds of climatic conditions, they can meet all needs such as fire, plumbing, heating and ventilation system and electrical equipment.
Prefabricated modular buildings are built approximately twice as fast as conventional structures.
Modular buildings have the same design concept and technical performance as the most demanding traditional structures built on-site. The construction industry in developed countries uses this technology very often.
Modular structures, which can be built both temporarily and permanently without foundations, are not limited to three or four floors.
The modules transformed into prefabricated walls, floors and roofs; finally all buildings, and the main structure is just as durable and reliable as each module.
In addition to managing quality control processes and shortening construction times, modular structures have many different advantages, such as reducing the possibility of accidents at construction sites and vehicle traffic.
The modular construction method decreases construction time by 30-50% and offers alternative and practical solutions.
Modular construction is not just a building type but a sustainable and innovative construction method that has evolved with a modern construction method and technology, 60-90% of modular structures are completed in a factory environment.
