According to a website i found myself through google it is -

[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]What is Modular Construction?
[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Modular construction is an advanced form of facility construction in which a building is built in three-dimensional sections (or modules) in an enclosed factory environment.

Every modular building starts with a precisely designed floor plan. This plan is divided into smaller sections or modules which are constructed separately in our state-of-the-art factory using conventional commercial wall, floor, roof and ceiling materials. All major systems including mechanical, electrical, plumbing and finishes are completed prior to shipping and installation on your site. From start to finish, it only takes us a few days to construct many modular buildings saving you months of time.

During the time that your modular building is bring constructed, site development teams are preparing your site and performing any needed on-site construction (a process called concurrent construction).

This ensures that time savings are maximized throughout the modular building process.

Although i havn't asked my friend yet, so will find out what he actually states about it!

cheers for that Moosic

But one small point, how many building sites are there in the UK currently using that method??? One well known house builder literally half a mile from me is constructing a new housing development in the usual manner.

I wouldn't be surprised if modular construction is just a fad that will be discussed around the industry but never take off.

And as for wet trades going out of fashion - can't see it myself. There will always be a need. If it aint broke, why fix it??

yes there will always be individuals and we all want different houses, and factories tend to tool up for one type at a time ,so i can't see that taking over m8, don't worry so mutch if your only doing a short course, nothing ventured nothing gained good luck. :thumbsup:
