Design and construction approach

• Architects, engineers, and the modular factory collaborated from day one.
• Building Information Modeling (BIM) was used to create a detailed 3D model.
• The team used BIM for early clash detection and alignment of structural and MEP systems.
• Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DfMA) principles were adopted.
• Unit sizes were standardized to simplify construction.
• Off-site production and site preparation happened in parallel.

Schedule and quality

• Modular construction shortened the schedule by 40%.
• Factory production improved quality control.
• The process reduced defects and rework.
• On-site noise and disruption were reduced in the dense urban area.

Sustainability features
