Offsite construction for the


Ministry of Defence

Rollalong has considerable experience of providing high quality design and build buildings for use by MoD personnel and their families. Our building systems are adaptable to the diverse needs of the MoD.

Since 2006, Rollalong has successfully delivered over 2000 bedrooms for military personnel across Salisbury Plain and Aldershot.

With an emphasis on quality, Rollalong buildings are manufactured to exacting standards to provide high performance modular buildings that satisfy the MoD's requirements.

Strong Steel-Framed Modular Buildings for our Armed Forces

The Rollalong Building System designed for the Ministry of Defence:


  • Designated a steel-framed building; the preferred multi-storey
    construction*
  • Ability to absorb bomb blast energy by deformation without collapse**
  • Counter terrorist compliant accommodation modules
  • Approved foundation/anchorage interface to resist uplift

 

Key Benefits

Speed of Delivery

Our buildings are delivered 30% faster than traditional for single living accommodation.

Sustainability


Our design process ensures that the building achieves the energy rating target, in the MoD's case DREEAM. Our procurement team ensures that materials used are responsibly sourced and fully documented.

High Quality

Our modules are manufactured in a factory environment that is controlled by an ISO 9001:2008 system. The manufacturing process produces high performance, high quality and reliable buildings.

Health & Safety

We strictly adhere to all Health & Safety procedures in the factory and on site at all times. Using offsite construction methods the work is brought to the operative; it is presented at the right height, with all of the materials, tools and consumables necessary to carry out the work – right first time.


Minimum Disruption

The manufacture of the modules offsite means less labour on site, which is beneficial with the strict security requirements of a working Ministry of Defence establishment. Additionally there is less waste, less noise and less transport.
