Modular Construction: A Game Changer in Commercial Projects? The construction industry has always been slow to change, but one trend that’s making serious waves in the commercial sector is modular construction. We're seeing a shift in how commercial buildings are designed, planned, and built, with modular and prefabricated methods offering quicker timelines, cost savings, and improved efficiency. This innovation is not just about speed—it's also driving new approaches to quality control and sustainability. In cities like New York, where space is limited and time is money, modular construction has already proven its value in sectors like hospitality, office buildings, and mixed-use developments. By assembling large portions of a building off-site, developers can reduce disruptions to the surrounding areas and keep project timelines on track. But it’s not just about time and cost savings—modular construction is increasingly seen as a sustainable option. Off-site construction tends to produce less waste, and with many companies now focusing on reducing their environmental impact, modular building offers a way to meet those goals.

Are we as a country moving quickly enough when it comes to safety? Our article on the importance of safety in building design, which we published late last year, attracted a huge response and was published in its entirety by construction Week Middle East. This is the first in a short series of thought leadership articles by Cowan directors, Simon Spiteri and Brendan Geraghty. Watch this space for the second article which focuses on retrofit.

How is office development being decarbonized? Read today's The Wall Street Journal to find out.   In the article, David Briefel discusses Gensler's Turner Construction Company HQ project in New York's Hudson Yards, designed in collaboration with STUDIO 397 Architecture PLLC. Our Climate Action Studio works with our clients to implement strategic planning in built projects and more broadly across organizations.   https://lnkd.in/e2dtqMT9

Construction firms are taking a circular approach to meet the increasing demand for greener office buildings. By re-using recycled concrete from demolished buildings, construction firms are decarbonising office buildings. Read more about how construction firms are going circular in this Wall Street Journal article. #sustainability #greenerbuildings #decarbonisation

A very interesting insight into #construction and #sustainability. Can both of these go hand in hand? Can #architects, #consultantengineers and #buildingcontractors help? Good design and good on-site practice certainly contribute. https://lnkd.in/e7D4Rsf4

🚧 Case Study Spotlight: Modular Excellence with Ellis Don & TTC 🚧 BOXX Modular proudly collaborated with Ellis Don to serve the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) on a significant infrastructure project that exemplifies modular construction's potential. This partnership was a testament to the seamless integration of modular buildings into complex construction environments, demonstrating innovation, efficiency, and resilience. 🔹 Project Overview: The challenge was to provide a range of modular buildings, including office spaces, lunchrooms, and washroom facilities, amidst the bustling urban environment of Toronto. These structures did not only have to be functional and comfortable but also had to meet the strict safety and quality standards demanded by the high-profile nature of the project. 🔹 Our Solution: Leveraging our expertise in modular construction, we supplied customized buildings that were immediately operational, ensuring minimal disruption to the ongoing construction activities. Our approach emphasized flexibility, allowing for the easy relocation and adjustment of the units as the project's needs evolved. 🔹 The Outcome: The project was a resounding success, with the Ellis Don and TTC teams benefiting from reliable, high-quality modular spaces that facilitated a smoother project flow and enhanced on-site coordination. This case study exemplifies how modular construction can play a pivotal role in urban infrastructure projects, offering solutions that traditional construction methods cannot match. 🌟 Why This Matters: Our collaboration with Ellis Don and the TTC is a great example of modular construction's ability to support complex, large-scale urban projects. It showcases the adaptability, efficiency, and environmental benefits of modular construction. We're thrilled to share this success story and look forward to more opportunities to demonstrate the value of modular construction in challenging environments. ➡️ Learn more about this project and how modular can elevate your next construction challenge by visiting our website. https://lnkd.in/gDYQ5wSF #ModularConstruction #Infrastructure #EllisDon #TTC #BuiltModular #Construction

In recent years, a significant shift has been observed in the construction industry, especially within the realm of non-residential building projects. Historically reliant on materials like concrete and steel, there’s a growing resurgence in the use of wood—a trend fueled by advancements in sustainable practices and the intrinsic benefits of natural materials. 

For anyone unfamiliar with the benefits of Modular construction I recommend checking out this latest blog post 'Why would you choose a modular building?' It provides an interesting, easy to read insight into how Wernick Buildings can provide aesthetically pleasing yet robust and sustainable modular buildings. Are you working on any projects that could be enhanced through modular construction? I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts 💭 https://lnkd.in/eEeJJGvc
