Repurposed Modular Building Adds New Life

Gila County Utilizes A Repurposed Modular For More Space

A case study on used modular buildings.

A repurposed modular building is the solution: When Gila County needed more county offices and swing space a modular building made the most sense.   Unfortunately the county was struggling to find appropriate funds to accommodate all of the office space they would need.  Modular Solutions, Ltd was able to offer a used modular building that could be repurposed and offer the county huge savings.   A repurposed building does not work for all clients, but in this case study it was the perfect space solution for getting a large, affordable office structure within budget

Does your design-build modular project have an architect on staff?

Design-build modular projects should have an architect on staff

When choosing design-build project delivery the members and staff of a team are critical to the success of a project.   Some modular companies will try to complete a project by hiring outside 3rd party companies which often leads to poor communication or schedule and cost delays.

Modular Solutions, Ltd is unique in the modular industry.   We are licensed as an architectural firm, a general contracting firm, and also as a factory direct manufacturing company.   With all three licenses and the great team we have assembled we are ready to tackle any design-build project.

Modular Mansard Adds Beauty & Dimension

Adding A Modular Building  Mansard For Style

Modular buildings have historically been labeled as "boxy" and non dimensional. When we are asked how do you make a modular have style and character, we often recommend a modular building mansard.  If you do not know what a mansard is, it is a dimensional overhang made from various materials that add roof height, and dimensional overhang on all four sides of the building.  

In the modular industry a majority of the mansards are constructed with steel or stucco, but we have also used cedar, concrete tiles, copper, and more. The great thing is you can play with the angle of the design to have a varied final appearance.

READ MORE in our daily blog on our website, or contact our sales representative to learn more about how a mansard can create that special design element you have been wanting to see in a modular building.

CT Scan Imaging Suite, A great choice for modular

Modular Solutions, Ltd works closely with our design-build partner H.C.C.O. to construct CT scan imaging facilities.   The great thing about going modular is you get your facility on site about 90% complete including all the safety and design criteria required by health departments; all that is left to do is install the brand of CT Scan imaging equipment you chose & get ready to start bringing in imaging revenue. 

There are "trailers" or "mobile" MRI and CT scan facilities available, but why would you want something with that appearance on a clinical site for your clients?  Our facilities offer all the amenities and comforts of any permanent facility you would construct on site.

Every project is custom so we can match your existing facility exterior finish, customize the interior, offer special sound and comfort features.

We even have lease plans available through the equipment vendors to make sure you are getting the best value for your short and long term space planning goals.

We have a case study on our website blog  read more.

Ever Consider A Container For Your New Office Space?

Modular Solutions, Ltd has been manufacturing custom buildings for some time, and there has been an insurgence of requests lately to try and utilize containers from the overseas marketplace.   The modular industry has spent time and money on research of the safety and code compliance once you breach the integrity of a container and use the "bones" for another type of construction.

The modular building institute (MBI) has written an in-depth article on  what the "experts" say about the integrity and safety of re-use of storage containers for multi-family, permanent construction using multiple containers, and other uses. They also include suggestions for code requirements.

For a copy of the article please email this LINK with "container" in the subject line and we will forward the information, or you can also become a member of the MBI organization that supports all types of prefabricated construction.

We have provided re-use containers for judicial systems, and retail, and have looked at containers for multi-family housing projects.   In the end it is no less expensive than traditional construction methods, it is just another way to fulfill a space need.  There are lots of creative uses for this type of construction in the industry, the question is, is it right for your project.

BUILDING A SCHOOL, A BETTER WAY TO BUILD

This modular school campus project consists of 40 modular sections, and the magic is they are in place in less than a week!    WOW, a 40,000 sq. ft. school set in place in less than a week!

There are still some finishes that need completed, but the building sections will be weather tight and closed up before the winter storms hit.  All of the  modular sections were constructed off-site at our local factory, using local labor & materials and sub contractors.

WHAT IS CFS? IS IT RIGHT FOR YOUR NEXT PROJECT

A great article on Cold Formed Steel (CFS) construction.  Many agencies and the private sector are choosing  CFS, you need to decide if it is right for your project.

http://www.buildsteel.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/CFS_Architects_Final_07262017.pdf

For years there has been a debate if steel or wood construction is a better alternative.  The only solid answer to that is discuss the pros and cons on your project to see what is a better fit.

In the world of modular and prefabrication where time serves as the driving monetary value, CFS makes sense on many projects.   With the ability to order customized special materials delivered straight to site, with no additional cutting or labor investment, you can save a substantial amount of time.  Another large benefit is the cradle to grave recycle factor.



Wood framing has many benefits including fire treated wood, commercially available product, LEED points for being locally sourced.

Mobilize our factory in "anytown" USA

Modular Solutions, Ltd recently took our factory "on-the-road".  We brought our technology and experience using prefabricated construction, and mobilized near the site.  By hiring local crews, and team members we generated jobs within the local economy, and did not have the huge shipping costs frequently associated with prefabricated construction.

This approach was well received by the local tribe and agency and a 45,000 sq. ft. school will be completed by the end of the year.

What? An All Steel Modular Building?

We recently visited a factory on the east coast and they were completely perplexed at the thought of constructing a modular building out of steel.   With architects and developers expecting a 50+ year life cycle from their investment it is time for everyone to see there is a better way to build.

Modular Solutions, Ltd has a product line that has steel floor joists, steel roof rafters, can be set on a slab or the concrete can be poured in the plant and this facility will endure the test of time.

In locations where seismic and wind conditions are extreme this is the perfect solution.  We are seeing higher standards in the new IBC codes and this is an example of a great way to meet or exceed the energy code and structural requirements.

Modular Building Windows, What Are My Choices

What Type Of Windows Can We Use In our Modular Building?

Commercial modular buildings are constructed to the IBC code, the same code as any traditional site contractor will use.   The goal is to design a building that allows natural light, but that also has energy efficiency built into the modular building design.

What to look for: The National Fenestration Rating Council offers five areas to consider when selecting windows for your new modular building.  

1. U-Factor determines how well a window prevents heat from escaping. U-Factor ratings generally fall between 0.20 and 1.20 the lower number is best at keeping heat in. This is a great consideration for a modular church building.

1. Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC) reflects how well a product will blocks heat from the sun. SHGC is expressed as a number between 0 and 1, a lower SHGC indicating a product that is better at blocking unwanted heat gain. This is important when constructing a modular hospital or clinical facility.
   
2. Visible Transmittance (VT) indicates how much light comes through the window. VT is expressed as a number between 0 and 1 the higher the VT number the higher the potential for daylighting. This is important in modular  educational spaces.
3. Air Leakage (AL) measures how much outside air comes into your new modular building. AL rates typically fall in a range between 0.1 and 0.3 the lower AL  is better at keeping air out.  This should be considered in modular hospitality projects.
4. Condensation Resistance (CR) measures how well a window resists the formation of condensation. CR will show a number between 1 and 100 with a higher CR indicating a product better able to resist condensation. Federal modular building projects often look at this consideration
5. Low E Windows will cost about 10% or 15% more than standard windows, but will supposedly reduce energy loss by as much as 50%.
6. 
7. 
   
 The federal government has a program designed to show consumers energy efficiency.   Windows are one of the products that get registered.   Look for your energy star sticker to tell you more about the window & how good the energy savings will be.
8. 
   
9. There are also lots of options for coatings, screens, shutters, frame materials, and opening operation.   
10. 
    
11. For more information contact our design team & we can help you make informed decisions on the best value for your new modular building.

Education Design-An Interactive Approach

New School Designs Allow For Open Collaborative Spaces

Education like any industry evolves and must adapt the teaching and learning environment based on the current generation and how they learn.

Old modular building designs used to include 700-900 Sq. Ft. per classroom, with or without restrooms, and every teacher and each classroom were self contained learning pods.   While this method still works in some instances, new data has shown that children thrive in a more collaborative learning environment.

This does not mean that the traditional teach in the front with 30 desks is not still a viable approach, but there are more creative designs that allow children to learn from each other and to strengthen their team work skills.

Modern classroom designs include smart walls, moveable walls, high ceilings, large open study rooms with comfortable furniture and lots of natural light.  There are also lots of stations for hands on learning that foster critical thinking skills and solutions development.

Experts say that to build the next generations' critical thinking skills and problem solving abilities, being able to communicate in a comfortable and open learning environment may be a key to their success. 

This method of design may not be your traditional modular building construction, but there are other methods of prefabrication that can easily accomplish this method of school construction.   MPANELS © are a great way to get high ceilings, large open spans, natural lighting, and moveable wall systems.

Wellness Centers For Learning, Not Just Excercise

Modular Wellness Center, Will Be The Center Of The Community

The word wellness center brings many different thoughts to various population centers.  For some it is a place to find holistic or alternative medicine, for others it is a place to work out, and still for others it is a place to grab a great hot meal and gather.

The word "wellness" in this most recent modular building provided by Modular Solutions, Ltd encompasses total mind, body,and spirit well being.

The physical center allows aerobic and physical workouts for community members.   There is also a commercial kitchen that can prepare hot meals and serve as a place for community members to gather and learn a more healthy way to prepare meals.   The building also has education rooms to help with cultural and educational topics ranging from health and fitness with a strong focus on diabetes prevention and control.

The 6000 Sq. Ft. Hozhoogo Iina Wellness Center opened in August 2016, and has had a steady stream of local community members utilizing the facility on a regular basis. 

This modern fitness center is equipped with mirrored walls, and a heavy duty floor.  The kitchen has modern commercial appliances and can prepare a feast.   Educational rooms are equipped with moveable walls to accommodate small and large learning groups.

Year End Tax Deductions, Great Lease Options

Section 179, A Way To Reduce Your Tax Liability

Section 179 is a federal income tax provision that allows small businesses to deduct the full 100% value of their capital asset purchases in the year of acquisition. The great thing about a lease purchase is you qualify for the full deduction,  even if you haven't paid the full value of the asset yet!

The Section 179 deduction is available for both new and used equipment and can allow you to write off the full value of acquired asset(s) even if you used leasing or financing to make the acquisition.  

Modular Solutions, Ltd has been working with companies like LEASE SMART  to find great lease and lease purchase programs for new and used modular buildings.   

The 2016 limit for your Section 179 deduction is $500,000, and it's important to have the equipment delivered and working before the end of the tax year, to qualify for the 2016 exemption.  Check with your income tax adviser and ask whether Section 179 is right for you.

Need An IT Room In Your New Modular Building, Read These Five Great Tips

How To Design Your IT Room, Five Great Tips

Almost every new modular building being constructed for traditional office space use has an IT room included.  Over the years we have seen the evolution of this crucial space.   Some manufacturers would just build a closet causing overheating, some manufacturers put in a large AC drop causing the AC units to freeze up or over cycle. 

When you are depending on technology to run so many aspects of your business, how much would it cost you if your communication or data systems are down?

Here are a few tips to look at when you are designing your new modular building. 

1.  Size the room based on the amount of equipment you will have in your facility.  Over sizing or undersizing a room can cause issues with the operations of your system.

2.  Do not use the space for "storage" of other things.  Frequently we will see designated IT rooms become storage for office and cleaning supplies or spare parts.  Keep the IT room clean and free of clutter.  If you need storage, design in additional storage rooms.

3.  Static resistant flooring is the recommendation.

  Use wood, laminate, tile, or some other easy maintenance non-static material for the floor covering in the IT room.

4.  If you are not using a professional rack in the IT room, then make sure your include a backer board that is coated with a fire restive material.  Some clients will even make the entire room a one hour fire rated room.

5.  We recommend IT rooms have a mini-split system with a ductless cooling unit dedicated to that room.  

In the event there are thermostat wars in the office spaces your IT room will remain cool and consistent based on the temperature setting you and your team select.  Large data rooms can exhaust through the floor or crawl space if you design your facility using a professional team.
