Structural Specification Considerations
Attention to detail in the review of your
specifications is a must. These specifications will determine your
long-term satisfaction with your modular building. This can be the
dry part of any construction project, but it can be invigorating if you
understand the differences in materials.
Structural specification considerations are
the most important areas related to cost and product performance.
Structural specifications determine the required design loads for your
floor, roof, walls and building systems. Material specifications
reflect the material, color and textures associated with your finishes.
It is well known that modular manufacturing is very good at producing a
strong and structurally sound facility. Modular Building Associates
will show you how to add the aesthetic features required to compliment
the structural modular construction.
 
Service areas for building use such as removal
of trash or other service activities should be designed to minimize their
visibility from public areas. Rooftop mechanical equipment should
be enclosed in structures that are integrated into building design.
Acoustic control should be included as required to ensure the quality of
the surrounding environment.
