What advantage do modular buildings have in terms of construction time?

Modular buildings offer a significant advantage in construction time because they allow for concurrent construction and site preparation. This means that while the modular units are being manufactured off-site in a controlled environment, the foundation and site work can be taking place simultaneously at the installation location. This overlap significantly reduces the overall construction timeline compared to traditional building methods, where site preparation must be completed before any structural components can be erected.

This method of construction not only streamlines the process but also mitigates delays caused by weather, as factory conditions are not subject to the same external variables that can affect outdoor construction projects. Consequently, the efficiency of this approach highlights one of the primary benefits of modular building in terms of quicker completion and faster project turnover.
