Transport and assembly of modules

Transport i montaż modułów

Modern modular construction is distinguished by the technology used. The wooden modules that will make up the designed building are made in the factory - on a modern production line. The next step is to transport the modules to the construction site, where the Unihouse team carries out their assembly. The result is an aesthetically pleasing, functional and energy-efficient building.

Comprehensive range of services - transport and assembly of Unihouse modules

All modules from which the modular housing is made are assembled in the factory. The controlled production environment ensures that the work is carried out according to the agreed schedule - with no delays caused, for example, by weather conditions. Close quality control is also possible, which translates into the end result and the satisfaction of future residents. We carry out the project in accordance with the investor's vision and expectations, also in a turnkey version. But the finished modules still need to be connected together. This is already done on the construction site, to which the modules must be transported. The transport of the modules - just like their assembly - is carried out by our experienced employees.

The transport of the modules can take place not only during the construction of a residential building - it is important to remember that modular buildings can be extended and superstructured. Then, once the additional modules have been made in the factory, all that remains is to transport them and connect them to the existing structure. This is possible because the individual modules are designed as whole rooms (including installations and equipment) or parts of larger rooms. Another case where it is necessary to transport modules, is the dismantling of a building - modular technology makes it possible to move already constructed buildings to another location.

How is the transport and installation of the multifamily building modules?

Modular construction has many advantages over traditional construction. One of these is the short lead time. Transport and assembly of Unihouse prefabricated timber-framed modules can take place at any time of the year. The prefabricated modules are lightweight and easy to transport - they can be transported to the construction site either by road (cars) or by sea (ships). The lack of need for specialised equipment reduces the cost of the operation.

What does the installation of multifamily building modules look like? For investors, the following information may be key:

  • the assembly of a single module takes two hours at most - the building grows hour by hour, with the consequence that it is often commissioned just a few months after the start of the design work;
  • because the modules are lightweight and their sizes are similar, they are easy to handle on the construction site - another advantage of modular construction;
  • the individual modules are assembled using a crane - no other specialised equipment is needed, which reduces both costs and the assembly time of the prefabricated elements;
  • the work on the building site does not end when all the modules are connected - what remains is to create an aesthetically pleasing façade according to the design.

    Transport and assembly of modules - FAQ

    How are the modules transported?

    The Unihouse modules are transported to the site mainly by road, using trucks. In many cases, this is an oversized transport that can only take place at night. The vehicles travel in convoys with pilots at the front and rear. The largest modules Unihouse has produced to date were 5.4 m wide and 16 m long - the Kaldnes Bryggeproject , Tønsberg in Norway. For further distances, especially internationally, sea transport can also be used. Unihouse has many years of experience in organising transport and logistics for deliveries to the site, both in Poland and beyond the Arctic Circle in Norway. Regardless of the method, the modules are properly packed and secured to ensure safety and integrity during transport. This ensures that even modules with full internal finishes arrive at the construction site intact.

    How much does the module weigh?

    Depending on the size and finish and equipment inside, from a few tonnes to around 20 tonnes.

    How long does it take to install one module and how many modules can be installed in one day?

    Between 8 and 12 modules can be assembled on site in one day, depending on conditions. The production of one module in the factory takes between 11 and 20 days, depending on its complexity and internal finishing. Assembling a module as a 3D component in the factory takes several hours. In the factory, Unihouse is able to produce an average of around 5-6 modules per day, taking into account working days and being aware that this is an average figure. Please note that the above figure depends on a number of factors, such as the complexity of the project, customer requirements and working conditions.

    What is the largest room that can be made into modules?

    There are no restrictions. Modules can be combined with each other, so it is possible to build schools and kindergartens with rooms such as classrooms using modular technology.

    How long does it take to build with modules, how much faster is it than traditional construction?

    Construction times are shorter with modular technology because many of the production stages take place in the factory, minimising the impact of adverse weather conditions and other site-related delays. It is possible to carry out multiple stages of the project simultaneously, e.g. the foundations are built on site and several floors of the building are produced simultaneously in the factory. Prefabrication speeds up the entire construction process considerably and makes it a very attractive option for projects that require rapid execution.

    How does the construction process of making a building in modules work?

    The process of building from modules consists of several stages:

    1. Design using BIM.
    2. Production of floors and ceilings.
    3. Production of walls.
    4. Assembly of the modules.
    5. Finishing work.
    6. Assembly of kitchen furniture, bathroom fittings.
    7. Transporting finished modules.
    8. Assembly of modules on site.

    We encourage you to find out more about how the production process looks like at Unihouse.

    How are the modules combined? Can modules be combined?

    The modules can be joined both transversely and longitudinally. In large buildings, vertical and horizontal connections are used. These are technical connections, related to the statics of the building, as well as connections of installations (cables, pipes) and façade, roof and interior elements. After assembly and finishing, a modular building usually does not differ in appearance from a traditional building.

    How do you connect installations between modules?

    Each module, already at the production stage, is equipped with a complete set of installations. The water installations are checked for leaks in accordance with regulations and the electrical installations (cables) are tested. Once the modules have been delivered to the construction site and the entire building has been assembled, the installations from the individual modules are connected together using a crane. During production, special areas (revisions) are left where the installations will be connected. After checking the tightness of the connections, the revisions are closed - sometimes permanently and sometimes with the possibility of later opening and technical access to these areas.
