OFF-SITE CONSTRUCTION
 

 
Off-Site Construction [OSC] is increasingly recognised as a major contributor to improving the efficiency of the UK Construction Industry. Clients too are beginning to recognise the benefits of OSC:
  • More predictable costs
  • Faster delivery - earlier occupation
  • More predictable delivery
  • Less time on site, so less disruption of other activities
  • Safer - building site hazards reduced to a minimum
  • Manufacturing type Quality Assurance
There are various forms of OSC. Of these, 'volumetric' modular building, where fully fitted modules can be delivered to site to the highest level of completion, offer significant advantages to our clients.

flexible and responsive

The company has been in existence for over 40 years and involved in manufacturing modular buildings for over 30 years.
Initially the business supplied only temporary buildings, or 'Units' for hire. Today the hire business continues to flourish but increasingly, alongside its hire business, the company is gaining a reputation for erecting high specification permanent modular buildings.

Modular building can be used as an alternative to traditional construction for most buildings and for a wide variety of uses. However, to take optimum advantage of Modern Methods of Construction [MMC], it is better that modular buildings, for temporary or permanent use, are constructed Off-Site, rather than building in situ using pre-fabricated buildings.

Adroit Modular Buildings specialises in small to medium sized buildings of up to approximately 1,000 m2 (10,000 ft2).

temporary or permanent?

Adroit Modular Buildings can be used for permanent or temporary structures and can be specified with timber or steel frames. Every building, including temporary buildings, is designed to comply with current Building Regulations and has LANTAC [Local Authority National Type Approval Confederation] approval.
