Cost savings

Actual cost

Modular construction has been growing in popularity for two basic reasons - price and convenience. Modular buildings are less expensive than traditional construction and they're much faster to construct.

Now add in the convenience of the pop up build, and you can have an educational space whenever, where ever you need it.

The cost of a pop up modular would run in the range of $125 - $350 per square foot depending on the finishing options. A traditional build would run between $300-$500 per square foot.

These numbers vary from Province & Territory, but the cost savings remain the same.

Time

With modular buildings, more than 90% of the construction process takes place in a factory. The building is then transported to the site and through a system of scissor hinges and levers you can quickly have a space to use for learning. Environmentally friendly construction materials using zero net energy guidelines are used to provide an environment to be confident in.

If a school district has an existing school on a piece of land that it already owns, then you would have a new building quickly replacing the old in a much faster time.

The building site disruption is also kept at a minimum. Pop-up Modular construction requires fewer days on-site, and because schools are always nestled into a residential area, there is less disruption to the community.

Adaptability

  • curriculum changes

  • technological advancements

  • mandated remote learning

  • Increasing the physical space

  • changing population dynamics

All of these changes can be accommodated with a pop-up modular build. The ease at which a structure can be disassembled and modified is value added into the choice of Pop-Up Modular. You are not stuck with the original product, but it can be altered to the needs of the learning community.
