Waste Reduction Practices in Multifamily Construction

Tuesday, March 19, 10:30 AM, Suwannee 16

John Killingsworth | Associate Professor | Department of Construction Management, Colorado State University

Modular, offsite, and prefabrication practices are growing at a faster pace than traditional construction methods because these innovative solutions address concerns around workforce limitations, material supply-chain, safety, and quality. Past research efforts have typically focused on the qualitative rather than quantitative aspects of modular construction. This research gap provides an opportunity to leverage existing relationships with developer and modular communities to truly measure the quantitative benefits of offsite construction.

Colorado State University has completed a comparative study seeking to specifically measure framing material waste produced during a traditional site-built multifamily project and a modular offsite-built multifamily project. This comprehensive research outlines the significant limitations that exist in traditional building and waste management systems, and the increasing advantages that modular construction practices have in these processes. The research will provide actionable data for modular construction experts and novices alike.

ABOUT US

Founded in 1983, the Modular Building Institute is the international non-profit trade association serving the commercial modular construction industry.

OUR MISSION

As the Voice of Commercial Modular Construction®, MBI promotes the advantages of modular construction while advocating for the removal of barriers that limit growth opportunities. Through its long-standing relationships with member companies, policy makers, developers, architects and contractors, MBI has become the trusted source of information for the commercial modular construction industry.

ADVOCATING FOR THE INDUSTRY

As the world’s largest trade association for commercial modular construction, MBI has taken the lead to introduce, change, and defeat legislation and regulations that would have an adverse impact on our industry. We have successfully protected our members’ interests in numerous states and provinces on issues ranging from taxation, plan approval, code compliance, relocation and recertification. In short, MBI is the Voice of Commercial Modular Construction®

OUR MEMBERS

MBI members are manufacturers, contractors, and developers, and owners in two distinct segments of the industry:

• Permanent modular construction (PMC)

• Relocatable buildings (RB).

Associate members are companies that supply building materials, services, and financing.

BEYOND WORLD OF MODULAR

World of Modular is an event like no other, but there’s so much more to the Modular Building Institute. Maybe it’s a key contact we can introduce to you or a regulatory challenge we can help you overcome. Whatever your need, MBI is dedicated to helping make your business more successful all year round. We are confident that by becoming a member—or taking full advantage of your existing membership—you will not be disappointed with your return on investment.
