Modular construction uses sophisticated technology and industry-leading design software to identify elements of a construction project that can be pre-fabricated as modules of various sizes in a temperature-controlled indoor facility.

The modules are then transported and delivered to their intended site, set on the foundation footprint by use of a crane, and joined together to make one integrated building. Once the modules are assembled on-site and the integration is complete, the structure is virtually indistinguishable from those built by conventional construction methods.

The materials, design codes and standards applied to modular buildings are the same as conventional construction methods.

A leader in the modular construction industry, Horizon North can help you complete your project 30 – 50% faster than site-built construction. Our award-winning commercial and residential solutions are an ideal match for developers looking for greater certainty in costs and scheduling, superior quality control, and a smaller construction footprint with less waste.

/BENEFITS OF MODULAR CONSTRUCTIONModular construction follows a versatile model that creates a stress-free customer experience and provides significant inherent improvements over site-built construction methods by manufacturing off-site:

• Timetable reduction - Manufacturing occurs inthe controlled environment at the same time asfoundational work on the eventual site, meaningthe overall project time can be reduced by up to50%.

• Cost certainty - Costs remain on track as the causesof time delays that plague conventional construction, like inclement weather, minimal trade availability,accident damage or theft, are virtually eliminated.

• Superior quality - Modular projects are subjectto stringent internal quality assurance and controlprocesses, which are confirmed by on-site third-party inspectors.

• Sustainability - The lean modular construction process cuts down significantly on waste and improves efficiencies. Having the bulk of construction completed off-site also makes for a smaller footprint on site, with less noise, dust and vehicle traffic.

• Stronger structures - The indoor manufacturing environment that makes modular construction unique also creates stronger, healthier structures. Many of the indoor air quality issues identified in new site-built construction result from high moisture levels in the framing materials. Using dry materials in an indoor setting, the potential is substantially reduced for high levels of moisture to be trapped in the materials. The modules are also built strong enough to withstand craning and built with double walls and ceilings to provide better sound proofing between units.

/WE CONTROL THE VALUE CHAIN

With manufacturing facilities located in British Columbia and Alberta, Horizon North can take on projects of unlimited scale and complexity on aggressive timelines. Our modules are transported to site on our own dedicated fleet of GPS-equipped transport trucks and craned onto foundations. On site, we execute module junctioning and complete interiors, exteriors and roofs.

We take care of all the steps for you, from the detailed planning stages through to successful installation and commissioning.
