Modular and Prefabricated Architecture Group

last person joined: 11 days ago 
Description
Modular and prefabricated construction have long been of theoretical interest to architects. The recent interest and growth of supporting industries and the recent construction of substantial modular buildings in the US and abroad likely means this method of construction is reaching a tipping point in implementation. The Modular and Prefabricated Architecture Group has been established to provide a central location where architects and allied professionals can share, learn and push the state of the art of off-site construction to new architectural levels.

Prefabrication and Modularization: Increasing Productivity in the Construction Industry

Group Thoughts

As a very young member of the AIA KC the Modular and Prefabricated Architecture Group has little precedent for what group members would like to get out of membership. I was wondering what members would like to see in this group or accomplish as a member of the group.

Please share your thoughts.

James B. Guthrie, AIA
