Moladi Speaker-Abu Dhabi CONSTRUCTION CONFERENCE

MODULAR CONSTRUCTION
FOR RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS
26 - 27 November, 2014
Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates

Moving forward towards a smarter design and eective modular concepts
26 - 27 November, 2014 | Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates
“65% of user respondents indicated that the use of prefabrication/ modularization had a positive impact on project budgets,
with 41% indicating that it reduced projects budgets by 6% or more.”
WHY YOU CANNOT MISS THIS EVENT
Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region is becoming a hotspot for constructions projects
as more than $2 trillion has been awarded for this purpose for the next three years. In United
Arab Emirates (UAE), there are about $75 billion worth of construction projects planned in
Abu Dhabi in the next three years, along with numerous project opportunities in the Western
Region. Prefabrication has not had a steady increase in its utilisation in the Middle East for
commercial and residential projects; however, property and construction developers are
looking at this as one of the ways to mobilise further growth.
Prefabrication and modular construction is taking a leap frog now as technologies, such as
BIM, has enabled better integration of prefabricated/modular components as changes in
design such as the emergence of green have made certain advantages of
prefabrication/modularisation more important. Over the past decade, these processes
developed a stigma of “cheapness” and “poor quality”. Through modern technology, that
image has changed.
Modular Construction by Trueventus is designed to unleash the forefront in construction
technology. It’s a key component to improve productivity in the construction industry.
Constructing mega cities within months rather than years might not be a distinct possibility
in the future. We seek to address key issues involved in driving high quality and sustainable
construction solutions that are delivered at cheaper cost that provides signicant benets to
owners. In short, the sheer amount of money to be made using this technology is unlimited-if
you play your cards right.
KEY BENEFITS TO ATTEND THIS CONFERENCE
• Winning support from government agencies
• Devising strategies on the integration of modular
• Implementing latest design and modular concepts
• Assessing the economic viability of modular construction
• Driving success in modular construction projects through successful case studies
