How Does Modular Construction Differ from Standard Best Practices?

Hello everyone.

I’m exploring the differences between modular construction and traditional building methods. From what I understand, modular construction involves prefabricated sections assembled on-site, while standard practices typically build everything directly on location.

One fascinating aspect is how the modules go into place and the building comes together, which seems to streamline timelines and improve quality control. I’m curious about how this impacts overall cost.

Are there specific best practices in modular construction that deviate from conventional standards, like inspection routines or material selection?

I’d love insights or examples from anyone with experience in modular projects.
