摘要: To look at the origin of modular construction, you can go back to the 1670s; however, the real boom in America occurred after the Second World War when it was utilized to provide fast, low-cost housing for workers and returning servicemen. Since then, modular construction has been used primarily in residential housing and low-rise buildings. In recent years, this concept makes more and more sense as we see multiple ways prefabricated panels can enhance quality and reduce wasted resources. Modular construction and factory fabrication of geosynthetics also yields a smaller carbon footprint because electrical power generated from renewable sources or less carbon-intensive sources can be used for 60%-100% of the geomembrane and geotextile seaming instead of the hydrocarbon energy sources used for field fabrication. In summary, modular construction/factory fabrication results in high-quality, sustainable, innovative, efficient, cost-effective and faster geo-synthetic installations (Figure 6).
