INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT FOR THE FUTURE

INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENTFOR THE FUTURE

Introduction

• Infrastructure development is a major concern for
  nations and governments.
• The faster they develop infrastructure, the
  better equipped they become to cater to public
  demands. Traditional construction is cumbersome
  and slow.
• It fails to meet the growing developmental needs
  of nations.

• Infrastructure development in UAE has been
  shifting from traditional to modular method to
  bridge the demand and supply gap in
  infrastructure development.
• This technology driven and process based system
  speeds up construction work in infrastructure
  development by up to 50 in comparison to
  traditional methods.

Types of units used for construction

• 1. Precast concrete unitsThese are structural
  units of buildings. they form walls and building
  facades.
• 2. Modular designed unitsThese comprise inside
  partitions, kitchen units, stairs etc.
• 3. Joinery and fitting unitsThese are used for
  fitting and joining modular units

5

• 4. Aluminum unitsThese form the skeleton of
  sections and can be filled up with multiple
  cladding panels
• 5. Stone processing unitsThey are units used to
  produce roofing and flooring

Special Technology driving prefabs

• Building Information Modeling (BMI) advantage
• How modular construction works

Building Information Modeling (BMI) advantage

• BMI transitions the traditional two dimensional
  building drawing into a full three dimensional
  representation.
• It provides a full view of the physical structure
  as well as the functional parts within the
  building. Its greatest advantage is its ability
  to provide a real time view of interior and
  exterior to all stakeholders at an early state.
• With the use of BMI units are manufactured to
  definite specifications thereby eliminating
  delays and replacements later.

How modular construction works

• Modular units are prefabricated in factories
  according to specifications.
• The manufacturing process is automated and often
  robot driven.
• The units built maintain uniformity and
  consistency in design and specifications.
• It is possible to manufacture all building
  components as prefabs columns, beams, slabs,
  walls, staircases, kitchen units, bathroom units,
  floors and facades.

Conclusion

• The prefab system provides end to end solution
  for infrastructure development needs. The
  planning and designing stage of the construction
  is the most vital.
• By using the prefab construction method in UAE it
  has been possible to gain total control over
  entire infrastructure development projects and to
  deliver world class structures in record times.
