The majority of buildings are still constructed using traditional
technology (masonry, concrete). However, in the last few
years there has been an increasing use of modern methods
of construction (MMC) for housing, driven by a range of
factors including demands for faster construction, skill
shortages, and sustainability.
The modern methods of construction primarily involve the
manufacture of components in factories, with potential
benefits such as faster construction, fewer housing defects,
and reductions in energy use and waste [1, 6], all of which
offer significant potential to minimize both construction
waste [2] and construction safety risks.
The term, modern methods of construction (MMC), comes
from the United Kingdom as a common name for off-site
and on-site methods of construction. Off-site MMC refers to
modern methods of construction which has predominantly
been manufactured and assembled in a factory-controlled
environment. On-site MMC refers to modern methods of
construction which brings together systems or components
that are predominantly assembled on site. Virtually all high
quality products are built in factories around the world.
Cars, planes, ships, computers, printers, cell phones – even
the pen you write with – are built in factories. In addition,
even homes built on site use many components that were
produced in factories
We can divide the off-side MMC products into sets, which
are further divided into systems. Systems are then
subdivided into components.
• volumetric construction
– modular construction
– pod construction
• hybrid construction
– semi-volumetric construction
• panel construction system
– open panels
– closed panels
– structural insulated panels – SIPS
– composite non-structural insulated panels
– prefabricated parts
– light-weight composite solid precast sandwich panel
• natural materials from renewable sources
– timber frame construction
– multi-layered engineered timber (solid)
– components from renewable materials
• light-weight facades
– brick slips
– facade cladding
– external insulation accessories
• sub-assemblies and accessories systems
– floor or roof cassettes
– pre-cast concrete foundation assemblies
– pre-assembled products.
Modular construction is one of the modern methods of
construction. Each modular construction consists of
several separate modules. A module is characterized
as a three-dimensional object, which, by its size, is able
to provide utility space. Each module consists of a
frame, floor, ceiling, walls, and other accessories [7].
The modules are intended for permanent or
temporary living, sanitary purposes, storage, etc.
The comfort grade of the module depends on
customer requirements or offers from suppliers. The
modules are not assigned only for new buildings; they
may be used for additions and superstructures to
buildings, or they may be built into existing buildings.
The steel structure consists of hollow profiles and rolled,
self-supporting, anticorrosion primer, and polyurethane
topcoat paint.
The standard container module has a galvanized profiled
sheet. Atypical containers can have final surface
treatment such as wood, metal, fiber-cement or plaster.
Figure 1a) shows the steel frame construction; 1b) is the
complete module.
 The construction of modular schools in Slovakia is
supported by the state government. The Ministries of
Education, Science, Research and Sport, together with
the Ministry of Finance in consultation with the Office of
the Plenipotentiary for Roma Communities, has decided
to provide financial support for the construction of
modular schools for regions with insufficient capacity of
school facilities. Can regulate the water supply remotely
 Villages could apply for the support from a school
project known as “Challenges for social and cultural
needs and solutions extremely unfavorable situation of
marginalized Roma communities” [9], worth up to
200,000 EUR. Overall, in the first stage of the project in
2013, the state managed to build or expand the
capacity of several primary schools. The project is
based not only on state funding, but also significant
contributions by municipal governments, which provide
project documentation, land and any other necessary
infrastructure.
 Based on the analysis of the basic design of five
modular schools (Tab. 1) built in Slovakia in 2013, it is
clear that two specific schools are identical in terms of
the number of classes, the number of modules for each
class, or the total number of modules. Classes consist of
three modules, with one module having dimensions of
2604 mm × 6830 mm. Cabinets for teachers are
composed of two modules. The total number and the
design of the modules for each modular school vary
depending on the number of floors [7].
We can establish the main advantages of MMC used for
modular schools: less partial processes (specialized team)
on the construction site; smaller demands on facilities and
equipment at the construction site; lower labor costs; the
possibility of using state budget funds, special purpose
funds, or foundations; safer working environment at the off-
site production of building components; faster construction;
higher productivity in construction; fewer design errors and
better quality in the manufacturing of components; easier
quality control at the factory; less waste at the construction
site; less environmental pollution during construction; better
working and social conditions in the manufacturing.
The project was implemented by the Ministries of
Education, Science, Research, and Sport, in cooperation
with the Ministries of Finance, Government Plenipotentiary
for Roma Communities, and representatives of regions
continuing in 2014. After a positive response in the regions
and more requests from the municipalities, the
government has allocated 3 000 000 EUR for additional
modular schools. The construction of modular schools has
proceeded in other villages: Chminianske Jakubovany,
Gemerská Ves, Muránska Dlhá Lúka, Dunajská Lužná,
Miloslavov and Žehra.
