This kind flat packed container house has been widly used in various modular hospitals, such as Huoshenshan, Leishenshan makeshift hospital, HK Tsingyi modular hospital, Macao modular hospital, Xingtai modular hospital, Foshan and Shaoxing modular hospital, totally 7 modular hospitals.
The Advantages to Choose Modular Hospital
Speed — Modules can be manufactured in the plant while the site is being prepared (e.g. clearing, excavating, grading, and foundation work). This overlap in processes can shave weeks or even months off your construction schedule!
Quality — Manufacturing in a factory typically results in greater precision compared to construction in the field. This is especially important for complex, high tech buildings, such as hospitals. After inspections at the factory, modules can be delivered to the site almost completely finished. This means that damage (e.g. to plumbing fixtures, medical equipment, and paintwork) is less likely.
Less waste, greater efficiency — Designing for factory manufacturing leads to less wasted material than on-site construction. Workers are also more efficient because the equipment needed for each task can be kept at each workstation on the factory line. In contrast, on a building site, workers need to walk to find tools and bring them to all the different points they work on in the building.
Less labor — Factories are designed for efficiency and require less labor than conventional construction to build an equivalent structure. This is important given the current shortage of skilled tradespeople.
No weather delays — Delays are standard for conventional construction. When a hospital is built in a factory, there are no weather delays. This can make a huge difference, especially in areas with a short construction season, or with unpredictable weather.
Cost certainty — All the materials for prefabrication are ordered up-front and stored in the factory, ready to use. This means the exact price for materials can be known right away, rather than estimating the price for materials weeks or months in the future when a conventionally built structure is ready to have them delivered to the site.
Repeatable design — If all your patient rooms are the same, the efficiencies of repeatable processes in the factory are a particularly good fit for your project.
Customizable — Prefab doesn’t mean cookie-cutter though. Just as with conventional construction, the designs for modular healthcare facilities can be adapted to your needs.
