BY MIKE LARSON
Modular construction is on the rise, both in North America and worldwide.
The Modular Building Institute estimates that the annual value of modular building in the U. S. has risen from $ 15.3 billion in 2020 to $ 19.7 billion in 2025, and that it will keep growing to $ 25.4 billion per year by 2029.
Thomasnet. com says the worldwide value of modular construction in 2025 was $ 111 billion, and that it will grow at 8.2 % per year to $ 207 billion in 2033.
That kind of investment and expected growth says that project owners, designers and builders are seeing solid benefits from modular construction.
