MOTIVATION & OVERVIEW
Internationally infrastructure is ageing rapidly and there is increased utilisation of infrastructure due to urbanisation and globalisation.
Significant amounts are invested globally to address this issue, although funding fluctuates from year to year. One response to
this situation is to position the construction industry with advanced technological solutions such as Modular Construction and
Prefabrication. However, the construction industry is renowned for low levels of innovation. In South Africa research into modern
infrastructure is underfunded. There is a need to stimulate innovation in the construction industry to develop the uniquely South
African technological solutions required to provide and maintain economic and social infrastructure.
An investment into Modular construction and Prefabrication innovation should be based on a review of the current state of
construction technologies in the industry and an analysis of the drivers and trends that will shape the future construction industry
landscape. This Masterclass describes a new approach to integrate Modular Construction within the African construction industry
as a whole.
Construction efficiency, productivity and sustainability can be realized through the use of modular construction and prefabrication.
This 3 day Masterclass delves into ways in which modular construction and prefabrication provides a more cost effective alternative.
It looks into issues of infrastructural advancements, health and safety of modular structures, environmental effects (going green)
and construction project and risk management, it will provide in-depth discussions into advantages and disadvantages of modular
construction and integrating Building Information Modeling (BIM) and will also discuss the barriers hindering the growth of modular
construction and prefabrication in Africa. All these will be achieved through up to date case studies and presentations by renowned
local and international industry experts who will provide well-rounded global perspectives.

3. BENEFITS & OUTCOME
Modular Construction and Prefabrication is now in national development programs in Europe, United States and Australia,
where it is seen as an important way for improving quality and cost within a slow changing construction industry. With
emerging technologies and recent resurgence of interest in Modular Construction and prefabrication design globally, we are
likely to see this trend gaining momentum in the African construction industry. This Masterclass is pertinent therefore as it will
afford insight into the fast evolving Modular Construction and Prefabrication industry in Africa.
It will provide answers to issues like:
• Why Modularize?
• Is Modular truly the cost effective alternative?
• How much can you modularize?
• What determines the type of modular method to be used - Hybrid Modularization?
• Who are the key players, who should you partner with?
