BMOD specialise in the design and manufacture of steel framed, volumetric modular building systems which allows clients to apply all the benefits of off-site construction to building projects anywhere in the world.
The BMOD Construction System (Patent Pending) addresses the increasing challenges and regulations of providing rapid, flexible, and sustainable building solutions across a range of construction projects.
To deliver low cost and high quality building solutions to suit clients’ needs – BMOD have founded a team to includes award-winning architects, structural engineers, expert project managers and production teams across its manufacturing-assembly factories.
The internal and external components of the BMOD innovative Construction System allows modules to be assembled in an infinite variety of configurations to produce dwellings to suit the spatial and urban requirements of many building schemes. It is particularly suited to maximise development opportunities within high-density brown-field urban sites.
BMOD is revolutionising building by modernising construction. Contact us to discuss your project and allow us to demonstrate the many tangible and intangible rewards of using the BMOD system in your building project.
Fixed Pricing – Build to Budget
BMOD will engage with client teams early in the project cycle and establish their deliverables detail to generate price - to which BMOD will contract to deliver its solution.
This level of certainty in pricing, allows the client to better manage project finance and builds to ensure profitability.
The BMOD experience has been that our commitment to price and contract has allowed many projects to proceed to build, which if priced and budgeted in traditional methods would have remained un-built.
Building to suit required Shape, Size and Layout
The flexible design philosophy of the BMOD Construction System allows many permutations in floor plans and building layouts – all of which can be designed to the specific client requirements.
The design specifications of the external components of the BMOD system allow a wide variety of cladding and roofing options to be implemented – to suit and match the local landscape to the requirements of the local planning authorities.
Future Proofing Building for Life – Maximising use of Resources
BMOD buildings are designed with a 60-year plus lifespan, however if required, BMOD modular buildings can be deconstructed, refurbished and relocated to any other site.
The process of relocation of the modular building is the reverse of the installation process, allowing each module to be transported conventionally to its new location. The refurbishment of the modules can be undertaken using traditional building methods.
Uncompromised Construction Technology offering Innovation and Strength
BMOD modules interconnect with each other to create a robust self-supporting steel framed building that can be up to six-storey high. This limit can be extended much higher subject to fire-resisting treatments on design and structural elements.
The steel framed technology that underpins the BMOD construction system allows clients to create large open plan and contemporary layouts or can adhere to traditional designs.
Innovation, is not limited to the structural elements of the BMOD system, as we can engineer design elements of the building to encompass renewable energy units and technologies such as heat recovery systems and rain water harvesting.
Fast track Off-Site Construction without comprise to Efficiency, Cost and Safety
In comparison to traditional building methods, the offsite construction of the BMOD system reduces build time – most of the construction has occurred off-site in BMOD factories and hence allows groundwork to site works to occur unhindered.
The installation of BMOD volumetric modules on-site is simply a case of delivered units being craned and secured into position. The BMOD approach results in reductions in overall labour and effort required, as well as reliance on skilled labour to be present on-site. The whole BMOD installation process enables buildings to be rapidly built with minimal disruptions to meet project deadlines.
As modules arrive on site complete with fixtures and fittings pre-installed, the internal services are connected and the external cladding is installed, leaving the building ready for immediate occupation after just a few days of construction.
Achieve Efficiencies in Cost and Resources by using BMOD Construction Systems and Methods
Using the BMOD Construction System generates savings across the whole building project cycle - from design, build and support services.
Research by the Building Research Establishment (BRE) in the UK, confirms that off-site construction costs are proven to be in the range of 5% below to 20% above traditional construction costs.
Typically, completed BMOD projects reflect a saving of 10-15% compared to traditional build methods. By ensuring that all materials and components meet British Standards for quality and durability, they are easily replaceable, BMOD can help clients control life-cycle maintenance costs.
Quality Building Solutions to cater for different Market Sectors
Quality has been engineered into the DNA of the BMOD Construction System. Every stage of using this system from design, specification, manufacture, assembly, delivery and installation are controlled to ISO 9001 quality standards.
Utilising proprietary structural design and production techniques, BMOD are able to, within a purpose built factory environment, manufacture and assemble considerable numbers of volumetric modules each consistently finished to a high standard of workmanship and robustness – all quality checked on completion at the factory before transport to site.
All materials that are used in the BMOD Construction System are to an ISO, BS or EN quality standard. The result are long lasting and durable buildings, which have a lifespan comparable to those of traditional construction buildings.
The BMOD Construction System enables clients to capitalise on the additional benefits of utilising off-site construction techniques to building projects:
Reduction in Storage – Off-site construction contributes significantly in reducing the amount of storage required onsite, as well as increasing the amount of working space onsite.
Social Benefits - Off-site construction system results in a reduction in dust, noise and material waste when compared with traditional construction.
Reduced Commercial Vehicle Movements - Reduction in transportation of materials and labour to site and removal of waste result in the level and durations of disruptions and traffic congestion caused to the local environment, through waste collection & deliveries
Reduced Site and Labour Activity – compared to traditional construction, off-site construction reduces site labour by approximately 75%
Waste Management – with the majority of the building constructed off-site in a factory, materials such as plasterboard can be used more resourcefully. Overall reductions in waste are about approximately 70% when compared to on-site construction.
Health and Safety – Manufacturing in a factory provides a controlled environment where procedures are well established, and undertaken by suitably qualified personnel. Also access to protective equipment are always easily to hand, which is not always the case when building on-site.
