Modular Buildings in Flagstaff Arizona

Modular Buildings in Flagstaff and Northern Arizona require a few special building features.

By living and working in an area with higher elevations, and more severe climates we have a few recommendations for you to construct your commercial modular or residential modular building.

Some Construction Tips:

1. Build your roof snow load according to the local codes.  In Flagstaff, Arizona a modular building needs to be 40# roof snow load.  In the higher elevations there are some local jurisdictions that require a 60# roof snow load on a modular building.
2. Build your commercial building with a minimum of 2 x 6 Exterior walls and 2 x 8 Roof joists or rafters.  A good insulation package will keep you warm and keep your utility bills lower
3. Construct your modular building in Flagstaff, Arizona with vinyl or good insulated windows.  Cheap windows will let cold air in and warm air escape.
4. Design your crawl space with insulated pipes, and heat strip.  Winter freezes can cause severe damage if you do not have preventative measures in place.

Is A Steel Building The Same As A Modular Building?

We are frequently asked is a steel building the same as a modular building. The category of construction if often lumped together as a "prefabricated" structure. In our industry frequently firms will combine steel buildings and modular buildings for effective uses such as fire stations, or retail so they can have the high ceilings and open space steel offers with the flexibility of modular construction coming to site 90% complete.

I guess the biggest difference is in the construction design- see the comparison, showing the variables between steel buildings and modular construction. In some instances modular construction is best like a daycare or classroom, in some cases a steel building works best like an industrial storage facility or airplane hangar, and in other instances "melded" construction of modular and steel buildings will be the best space solution. When you talk with your design experts walk through items such as your current and future space goals, your budget, your schedule, your life cycle, and other important goals. It works well to build a needs and want list to see what the total budget can really afford. Sometimes the building funds are right on target, but the land development fees are in excess, causing the building design team to have to make value engineering choices.

In the end, you make educated choices based on working with an experienced modular building team. For more information contact our experts at:

How Do I Make My Modular Building Workplace Safer? (5) great tips

Whether you are in a site built or modular building the safety of employees is a great concern. We have some great general tips that will help encourage employees that your organization is doing everything they can to offer a safer work place environment no matter what the external existing conditions might be.

1. Trim back all hedges and landscape. If there are no hiding places employees can get to vehicles safely and know they are visible.
2. Have great exterior lighting. Whether that is parking lot lighting on a pole, or wall sconces mounted to the modular building, light will help divert criminal activity to a different location.
3. Fences and gates should have lighting. If possible have an automatic gate system. This way an employee does not have to exit their vehicle after leaving the modular building.
4. Employees in remote areas can arm their modular building with a security alarm feature. This can be set off in emergencies to divert criminal activity, making your employees feel more confident.
5. Open the floor to suggestions, have a wall box on your modular building or in staff meeting to allow staff to make suggestions for a safer workplace environment.


If you have a new modular building this can be incorporated into the design, if you have an existing modular building the modular building or site can be retrofitted to accommodate.

Is A Container The Same As A Modular Buiding?

With the world looking a a greener way to build and reduce, recycle, reuse in daily vocabulary- we are frequently asked can we just use a container and build the modular building this way. There are some great projects that are using or "re-using" shipping containers for building construction with great results. There are some major differences that should be looked at for the total picture.

1. Modular buildings can meet the energy code for continuous insulation and higher insulation values. Containers have a hard time achieving these levels.
2. Modular buildings can be customize in any shape (hogans, staggered lengths, various NON POSTING OPEN SPANS, containers have to work with the 8' wide sections structurally
3. Modular buildings are designed around a "pre-approved" set of structural calculations in most states. This can expedite the approval process. Containers typically require job-to-job design & engineering.
4. Modular buildings are inexpensive to attach versatile final finishes. Sometimes containers require additional costs for finishes such as brick or lap.

In the end you can evaluate what is the best benefit for your company or organization and your carbon footprint decisions.

Modular Solutions, ltd can offer you design & construction on both types of construction. For more details contact our team:

Need A Modular Building Floor Plan Fast?

Modular Construction is like traditional construction, everyone has a unique design they are looking to have built for their organization.

Conceptual floor plans from an architectural firm can cost from $500 to $3,500 and can take weeks to develop.

Here are (4) tips for getting affordable conceptual site plans:

1. If the modular company keeps a “catalog” of buildings similar that have been built you can look at something similar that worked for another client. Modular Solutions, Ltd keeps a master catalog and has floor plans from every project dating back to 1996. Just make sure if the floor plan is an older floor plan it has been updated to meet current IBC codes.

2. Modular companies will sometimes have “typical” models. Maybe one of these floor plans will work for your needs. If not, ask the modular company if the provide conceptual planning as a part of their service. Modular Solutions, Ltd provides free conceptual plans and budgets as a part of our preconstruction package.

3. Identify key employees space needs, and flow as you plan. Reworking floor plans can take time and slow down your schedule. Design firms will charge you for each rendition or version you request.

4. Keep your mind open. Sometimes what you thought would be a great idea, does not pan out to be a cost effective design. Listen to the design experts and let them help you create a design that is efficient and affordable.

Should we use BIM in our modular design phase?

What is BIM? Building Information Modeling. Building Information Modeling helps communication with all phases of the construction process "see" in real time what the building will be like in the end. Helping avoid conflicts with ductwork & fire sprinkler heads or fire walls running in the way of ductwork as examples. By having the entire building in a 3D or 4D program all of the designers and trades can see any potential conflicts before the construction process begins.

Since modular buildings are constructed in independent sections and put together in the plant as "one" building, avoiding construction conflicts will help prevent costly "re-construction" or "do-overs" and keep your projects on schedule. This also helps with final finishes that will be installed on site such as downspout placement and porch opening locations.

By having the owner, architectural, fabrication, and construction team involved from inception and effectively communicating, each department can take ownership and ensure their part of the project will be successful.
