Introduction to Off-Site Construction (Self-Paced Free for Members)

Interest in off-site construction is growing as communities and the building industry look to address multiple challenges around housing affordability and availability, access to a skilled workforce, building quality, sustainability, and jobsite safety. However, off-site construction can come in many forms potentially causing confusion on how to design, construct and regulate projects. Regulatory requirements and the roles of participants in the construction process can change based on the type of off-site construction used. This course provides an introduction to off-site construction covering common technologies and processes for both commercial and residential buildings, the key participants in the off-site construction process and the general regulatory approaches used. It is the first in a series of courses on off-site construction. This course is offered for free through the sponsorship of the Modular Building Institute and USG Structural Panels.
