Un événement à ne pas oublier : Le monde modulaire 2023
La conférence et le salon World of Modular 2023 de MBI se sont tenus en avril au luxueux Bellagio Resort & Hotel de Las Vegas, dans le Nevada. World of Modular est depuis longtemps la meilleure occasion pour le secteur de rencontrer de nouveaux contacts, d'apprendre des experts du secteur et de renouer avec de vieux amis, mais cette année, alors que MBI fêtait ses 40 ans au service du secteur de la construction modulaire commerciale, l'excitation était palpable. Avec plus de 1 500 participants, cet événement a été le plus important jamais organisé par MBI.
Pendant quatre jours, les participants ont assisté à de nombreux discours-programmes, ont choisi parmi des dizaines de sessions éducatives en petits groupes, ont obtenu des pistes et des contacts auprès de plus de 160 exposants, ont enseigné et inspiré des dizaines de lycéens et d'étudiants en visite, et ont été divertis par des fêtes, des parties de golf et de nombreuses opportunités de réseautage.
A tous ceux qui ont participé : Merci. Nous sommes impatients de vous retrouver l'année prochaine à Orlando !
Voici une rétrospective du Monde Modulaire 2023...
Le monde du modulaire revient à Orlando en 2024
La 41e édition annuelle de World of Modular revient au magnifique hôtel et centre de villégiature Rosen Shingle Creek, dans la ville ensoleillée d'Orlando, en Floride, du 18 au 21 mars 2024. Nous vous y attendons !

Mind the Gap: The Interface Between Onsite and Offsite Construction
Every design for manufacture and assembly (DfMA) project — modular, mass timber, or panelized — is really two projects joined at a seam. One is built in a controlled factory to millimeter tolerances; the other in the field, in weather, to the looser tolerances of poured concrete and human hands. Between them sits an interface: where the factory’s precision meets the site’s reality.
Rules, Rails & Repeatability: Applying DfMA to Modular Healthcare
DfMA offers several advantages for healthcare projects, with faster delivery among the most valuable. Schedule matters when building new facilities, expanding campuses, renovating existing space or bringing care closer to communities that need it.
Precision and Possibility: Demands of DfMA and What Modular Mass Timber Makes Possible
Mass timber does not automatically create an efficient modular building. Its precision makes early coordination more important: fabricated components will accurately reproduce both the team’s solutions and its mistakes. The material’s advantages are realized only when supported by an equally precise design and delivery process.
Catch It in the Factory, Not in the Field: Smarter Testing for Modular Builds
Integrating watertightness and airtightness testing into factory workflows transforms quality assurance from a reactive process into a proactive commissioning strategy. It ensures that every module shipped is field ready and resilient for transportation while also supporting the ability of the modular construction industry to make buildings better.
Modular Construction Contracts: Key Considerations for Successful Canadian Projects
Starting a modular project with a well-developed contract protects both the owner and the contractor. It will help keep the project on track and on budget, and it will improve quality from the factory floor to final installation on-site.
Modular by Design: Turning Architecture into a Manufacturing System
Modular construction is often presented as a faster way to build. Speed, however, is only one part of its value. The larger opportunity is to create a coordinated design and production system that improves quality, reduces uncertainty, and allows a building to move efficiently from concept design through manufacturing, transportation, installation, and completion.
Repeatability Begins with Trust: What Alora at Dry Creek Reveals About Scaling Modular Housing
Alora at Dry Creek, a 329-unit, multifamily community comprising five four-story buildings in Centennial, Colorado, demonstrates how repeatable design, standardized manufacturing and early collaboration can work together to create a model that is not only faster to deliver, but easier to replicate across future projects.
T.R. Arnold: The Art of Third-Party Inspections
T.R. Arnold (TRA), a third-party inspection company in Elkhart, Indiana, contracts with modular manufacturers across the US. Manufacturers register with each state to which they intend to send their modules and may be required to hire a third-party inspection company.
Creating an ‘Ecosystem for Innovation:’ 50+ Years of Modular Construction Oversight in Virginia
Virginia’s modular building program began in 1973, with the implementation of the Virginia Industrialized Building Unit and Mobile Home Safety Regulations. Now it’s leading the country in modular code adoption.
Understanding Thermal Barriers Compliance Methods & Emerging NFPA-275 Foam Plastic Technologies
New fire barrier technologies are improving total costs and margins in major areas of construction, such as commercial, government, union and prevailing wage projects. These benefits translate into other large fringe areas, such as agriculture, commercial cold storage facilities, grow houses, outbuildings, military and aviation hangars.
