Using the Bonneville Homes modular system,
the main part of the building is factory built,
as independent modules.

The majority of the components are factory installed: outer and inner walls, doors, windows, floors, ceilings, cabinets and counters, electrical circuits, piping, plumbing accessories and sprinklers.

Once built, units are transported to the job site and installed on foundations to form the basic building element. Afterwards, finishing off and other site works begin.

The onsite work includes: excavation, construction of the foundations, manufactured modules assembly, outer walls’ surfacing, drywall taping and painting, floor-coverings, electric, mechanical and plumbing connections, as well as roof completion.

This combined construction method (part in factory, part onsite) presents many important compared to the conventional stick frame construction methods.

Also, Bonneville Homes generally acts as the manufacturer, carrier and installer of the modules to ensure efficient coordination.

Construction

At Bonneville Homes, we value your opinion. Please fill in the small questionnaire below to help us better understand your needs.

Wall assembly
Materials, such as kiln-dry lumber, are stored in dry and heated warehouses, under perfect climatic conditions.


Module assembly
Modules, including walls, floors, ceilings, doors, windows, integrated cabinets, electricity, ventilation, and plumbing are factory installed under high quality-control conditions. Even the fire protection sprinkler system can be roughed-in.


Module installation


Every module is structurally independent: it contains its floor, its ceiling, inner and outer walls, including structure and outer surfacing. Detached double floors and ceilings, and also separate double marriage walls, ensure a superior soundproofing and improved structural stability.

Modules are transported onsite by means of hydraulic carriers specially conceived for that purpose. Then, these are installed on the foundations by cranes and inter-connected according to the model and the master plan of the building. This gives an outstanding structural stability to the building. In fact, every module being structurally independent and self-sufficient, the decline of part of the building by fire or other causes will not bring the collapse of the entire structure. This same integrity system applies to the resistance to earthquakes.


Finished building
Once the installation of modules and roof are completed, the exterior surfacing, the interior finishing and the groundwork can begin simultaneously. The completed building looks in all respects as if the entire building was onsite built. However, the hidden quality of the structure and other constituents makes for a superior construction, while the total costs are kept considerably lower.
