All About Prefabrication and Modular Construction Asia: The use of modular construction techniques as well as the size, scale and specialised engineering methodologies has advances considerably in the past 10-15 years. Engineering firms and project owners are becoming
increasingly aware of the potential benefits (namely time taken and project costs) which can be seen as the main catalyst for adopting a modular construction project management framework.
As those charged with the project management responsibility look for
cheaper, faster and less risky options, Chinese fabricators offer a viable solution; Chinese fabricators, now more so than ever are becoming the fabricator of choice. While concerns regarding the quality of works produced by Chinese fabricators as well as the relatively low production efficiency remain key sticking points for the global market, Chinese manufacturers are confident their products can fulfil the requirements of every scope of works whether that be from the marine, oil and gas, mining, petro chemicals industries etc
Having said that, the use of modular construction itself still has numerous constrains to the project, and if not planned and managed effectively, the anticipated benefits may not be fully accomplished.
Prefabrication and Modular Construction Asia is an insightful purpose built forum that will provide a platform for EPC s, fabricators as well as service and material providers both within China and regionally to discuss, share and educate an array of industry topics that impact the industry as a whole.
Topics will include:
- The advancements in modular techniques
- Design methodologies of integrating modularisation
- Effective procurement strategies for China business
- Project management methodologies used in multinational projects
- Case study of design and construction of different processing plants
- Cost/benefits of using modularisation
- Future of modularisation
- New processing techniques in prefabrication and modular construction
- Modular construction automation
