DECEMBER 2021CONSTRUCTIONBUSINESSREVIEW.COM6Undoubtedly, the pandemic has bought tremendous challenges to the built world and construction industry. Supply chains were disrupted, consumer behaviour transformed, and renovations of homes, multi-residential housing, and tenant buildings were accelerated; a turbulent year had some silver linings. When many people are trying to make sense of it all, modular construction looks to the future, knowing that the industry is resilient and capable of leveraging innovations to better serve end users. Building Information Modelling (BIM) is a term that keeps cropping up whenever the subject of modern building is brought up -- and for good reason. It is a strong tool for creating a digitised, 3D version of a construction project. It enables contractors, architects, and engineers to create digital representations of buildings to ensure that all parts of the building are considered and that all norms and requirements are followed. Aside from the obvious benefits of adopting BIM, which apply to many fields, it greatly aids modular construction workers by providing insights into the project before it begins and providing tools to successfully plan the design. Work on-site begins only once the modules are completed; this is why digital planning is critical for modular building project success. Furthermore, it allows for improved communication between on-site reality and module factories. It makes the precise measurements of prefabricated modules available for sub-contractors or a third-party delivering windows or doors, so that everything fits perfectly when delivered on-site.The future will see modular construction promote the extended use of technologies to design, develop and construct buildings in a faster and easier manner.
