Market Definition
Modular construction is a process in which a building is constructed off-site. The building is constructed under controlled plant conditions using the same design and materials to the same codes and standards as usually built facilities but in around half the time. Buildings are manufactured in “modules” that when put together on site, and specifications of the most sophisticated site-built facility and reflect the identical design intent without compromise.
Modular Construction Market Dynamics
This section deals with understanding the market drivers, opportunities, challenges, and restrains. All of this is discussed in detail below:
Drivers
- Ability to Complete Projects Faster Compared to Traditional On-Site Buildings
Modular construction has been utilized for a long time in the construction of residential and many other commercial product types due to the quick delivery times for the assigned project. Modular buildings are constructed off-site in modules and brought to the site in flat-packed panels. Construction off-site is transforming the construction process for schools, commercial buildings, hospitals, and other segments, ensuring better construction quality management and quicker delivery times.
Modularization methods for construction can help perform several tasks simultaneously. Weather conditions have no major impact on the schedule, so the time required to complete a modular construction project is usually less than that of traditional on-site building methods. In addition, the production of prefabricated components for modular construction is highly automated and of higher quality.
Modular construction is a ready-made structure where limited intervention is required on-site and it could synchronized along with site work and foundation activity. This time-saving benefit keeps the project on schedule. It speeds up construction time while still being efficient, which is driving the market growth.
- Growing Emphasis on Sustainability, Quality, and Workers' Safety
Continuously growing government initiatives to promote green construction, building technique, and reducing waste are driving the market growth. Traditional building method generates around 56 million tons of debris every year. However, modular construction uses precise measurement and management, creating multiple modules so discarded materials can be reused for other projects. This effectively helps in minimizing the generation of waste. The amount of waste generated by traditional construction challenges the environment compared to modular construction. Modular construction generates less waste and is also easy to dispose of.
Opportunity
- Increased Support from Government’s Rules and Policies
Over the past few years, the governments of Saudi Arabia and GCC have been increasing their spending towards shifting reliance from crude oil sector to enhancing the manufacturing output from sectors such as construction, automotive, and consumer goods.
The governments of Saudi Arabia and GCC have confirmed plans for a revolution in housebuilding, office space, and other commercial spaces in their respective countries. The surge of investment by government is noticed in the recent years, therefore increased support from government and its regulations and policies are expected to act as lucrative opportunity for the market growth.
Restraints/Challenges
- Lack of Reliability on Modular Construction in Earthquake-Prone Regions
Modular construction is a revolutionary new method used to build homes and businesses. Modular homes can be found in earthquake and seismic zones, but the ability to sustain the seismic movement is quite limited. Assembling failure can lead to joint issues, leakages, or void spaces. Earthquake-resistant construction is the fabrication of a building or structure that can withstand sudden shock or shake by minimizing structural damage, human deaths, and injuries. Therefore, suitable construction methods are required to ensure earthquake-resistance design objectives.
Modular construction involves building prefabricated modules off-site, delivering them to the worksite, and assembling them to create a permanent structure at the place of installation. Therefore, the building is prone to earthquakes due to assembling the modules.
- Lack of Awareness regarding Modular Construction
Modular construction has long been a high-quality, versatile, environment-friendly building solution. One major challenge faced by modular construction is the lack of awareness among people for these prefabricated spaces. Many people have misconceptions about it, suggesting that modular buildings are temporary structures that are cheap and of limited use. However, modular construction offers a high degree of flexibility and design freedom.
There are several issues in the adoption of modular constructions, including initial high building costs, lack of understanding of the prefabricated method of construction, technical and installation hurdles, and the inability to find prefabrication businesses locally. These factors make the consumer more unaware of the benefits associated with the use of modular construction. Moreover, prefabricated modular construction solutions require a process-based approach for any building or project.
