About TEKTRA

Off-site construction is a streamlined process that includes planning, designing, fabricating, transporting, and assembling building elements with a higher degree of finish than traditional on-site construction and in much less time, reducing labor costs, and burdens associated with traditional on-site stick built methods.

Although the terminology varies depending on region, common terms used to describe Off-site Construction include:

Off-site Manufacturing (OSM)

Precision Engineered Building Systems (PEBS)

Modern Methods of Construction (MMC)

Rapid Build

Essentially all terms lend definition to the same premise: buildings which include a proportion of plant or facility- manufactured elements for assembly on site.

Off-Site Construction can be used for all types of buildings. A few examples of the types of buildings:

• Ultra-Luxury single family homes and family compounds

• Ranches and multi-structure properties

• Large developments that need to scale fast

• low-rise housing developments

• townhouses/rowhouses

• duplexes

• multiplexes

• high-rise apartment developments

• commercial buildings

• multi-family developments

• Custom acreage estates

• Custom urban infills

Essentially, there are few, if any, limiting factors when it comes to the construction applications of Offsite Construction.

Building Information Modeling (BIM), is the foundation of digital transformation in the architecture, engineering, and construction industry.  It’s a digital method of working collaboratively on construction projects, which improves sharing of information and data between all parties in a construction project.
