- Flat-pack panels or 3D modules
- Steel chassis for lifting and transport
- Services and linings installed off-site
- Stackable for multi-storey
- Housing, camps, classrooms, hotels
- Coordinated with WS modular homes
Two ways to prefabricate
Panelised construction ships walls, floors and roofs flat and assembles them on site – compact to transport and flexible. Volumetric modules arrive as finished rooms – fastest on site, ideal for repeated units such as camps, hotels and housing.
With World Steel
Modules combine LGS framing with hot-rolled chassis and lifting points, and can be shipped in containers or on flat racks. See also WS modular homes.
