TechSolutions is a leading provider of modular fabrication integrated solutions, specializing in equipment, facilities, steel structure modules and pipe modules for mining, metal, power, oil & gas, chemicals, offshore, etc. Our integrated module execution solutions ensures that every aspect of project implementation is taken care of, from design, project management to procurement, construction, pre-commissioning, and commissioning, to mitigate key risks.

What is Modular Fabrication?

Modular fabrication is an modern construction method or process that involves the constructing prefabricated modules or assemblies in a controlled environment, such as a factory, and then transporting them to the construction site for final assembly. The modules are designed to fit together seamlessly, like pieces of a puzzle, resulting in a faster, more efficient construction process.

Modular fabrication is commonly used in the construction of steel structures and pipe modules, as it allows for a faster and more efficient construction process, which can be used for a wide range of applications, from mining, metal, port to metal, power, oil & gas, chemical plants, etc.

Clients Benefits of Modular Fabrication

Modular fabrication offers numerous benefits to clients projects. Some of these benefits include:

  1. Cost savings
    Modularization can reduce costs in various ways. First, the pre-engineered modules are constructed in a controlled environment, which minimizes the need for expensive on-site construction equipment and on-site labor, and reduces the risk of costly delays due to weather conditions, ensures that there is less waste, fewer errors, and better quality control. Secondly, the use of pre-engineered modules reduces material waste, which translates to lower material costs. According to statistics, modularization can reduce project costs by up to 20% compared to traditional construction methods.
  2. Time savings
    Since the modules are off-site prefabricated in a controlled environment, there are no weather delays, and work can continue even in adverse conditions, and on-site construction activities can be performed simultaneously with the off-site construction of modules. The modules are transported to the project site only when they are ready to be installed, reducing on-site construction time. According to statistics, modularization reduces the overall project timeline by up to 50% compared to traditional construction methods.
  3. Improved quality control
    Modularization allows for better quality control since the modules are built in a controlled environment. The modules are inspected at every stage of the fabrication process, ensuring that they meet all project requirements, and any issues can be rectified before installation. Since the modules are prefabricated, there is less need for on-site rework, reducing overall project costs.
  4. Improved safety
    Off-site construction reduces the risk of accidents that are commonly associated with on-site construction activities. This is because workers are exposed to fewer hazards when constructing modules in a controlled environment.
