Client: Sovereign Housing Association Limited

Project: To pilot a 'modular construction' project

Need: The project was a pilot study to evaluate the potential of modular construction methods to deliver Sovereign Housing Association's housing programme more efficiently and effectively, whilst complying with the targets set by the Egan agenda.

Solution: Through a partnership approach, this 'brownfield' development project combined traditional and modular construction techniques and maximised the use of off-site manufacturing in a quality controlled factory environment.

The NHBC registered housing had all mechanical and electrical services and kitchen and bathroom areas fitted-out and tested in the factory and all rooms decorated before delivery and installation. On-site works were limited to the ground works and external finishes of face brickwork and concrete roof tiles.

This particular design and build process has also shown opportunities for greater use of standardisation and volumetric reproduction and has realistic long term improvements in terms of cost, quality, speed and satisfaction.

Duration: 11 weeks in total

This is in the process of registration as a Housing Forum demonstration project
