Inside the Modcubes Modular Building Process
Modular construction isn’t just faster; it’s smarter. At Modcubes, we’ve created a streamlined, code-compliant building process that eliminates delays, increases precision, and gets your structure up and running quickly. Whether you need a modular office, retail unit, or utility enclosure, our process ensures it’s built for performance and built to code.
Here’s a look at how we take your modular building from idea to installation.
Here’s a look at how we take your modular building from idea to installation.
Step 1: Design That Fits Your Needs
Every Modcube starts with your project goals. We work directly with you to define your use case, layout preferences, compliance requirements, and finish level.
Our team handles:
- Layout and structural design
- ADA accessibility planning
- CBC and fire code compliance
- Mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) coordination
- Permit-ready documentation and stamped engineering
We don’t use cookie-cutter templates. Every Modcube is designed to meet your specific needs.
Step 2: Off-Site Fabrication in a Controlled Environment
While your site is being prepped, we begin building your Modcube in a factory-controlled environment. This step eliminates weather-related delays and ensures consistent build quality.
Benefits of off-site fabrication:
- Faster overall build time
- Consistent material quality and workmanship
- Streamlined quality control
- Reduced on-site disruptions
Each module is built from industrial-grade steel, precision-cut to your approved specs.
Step 3: Built-In Code Compliance
Permitting in California is complex. That’s why we design every Modcube to meet the latest California Building Code (CBC), ADA requirements, and fire safety standards before it even ships.
We include:
- CBC-compliant structural framing
- ADA-accessible layouts and entries
- Optional fire-rated assemblies
- Full engineering packages and stamped drawings
This helps your project pass inspection quickly, without costly revisions.
Step 4: Delivery and Site Installation
Once your unit is complete, it’s transported to your site and installed using crane or skid placement. Site connections (like electrical or water) are integrated as needed.
Depending on complexity, most builds are installed in days — not weeks or months.
Step 5: Future Flexibility Built In
Unlike traditional construction, Modcubes are made to evolve. Units can be:
- Expanded with additional modules
- Relocated to a new site
- Reconfigured internally
This flexibility makes them a long-term asset, not a fixed investment.
Why It Works
| Category | Modcubes Modular Build | Traditional Build |
|---|---|---|
| Timeline | 4–8 weeks | 4–12+ months |
| Weather Delays | None | Frequent |
| Code Compliance | Pre-engineered | Coordinated on-site |
| Flexibility | Expandable, movable | Fixed, costly to modify |
| Waste and Site Impact | Minimal | High |
Build Smarter with Modcubes
The Modcubes process puts control, speed, and quality in your hands. From engineering to final placement, we make modular construction work for your business — not the other way around.
