Somundy Century manufactures their own frame, so they
can be tailored to suit your needs. The average weight
of a preboarded
frame is only 200kg, which does not compromise the durability
of the Modular. The sections are manufactured from steel
which is 80% recycled and 100% recyclable. The building
environment
has a life expectancy in excess of 60 years according
to the report "Durability of Light Steel Framing".
All
of our design is carried out with future maintenance in
mind. All architectural, M & E, Structural, acoustic
and fire details are assessed and incorporated into our
design. Working jointly with the client’s professional
team we will advise on sound attenuation and fire properties
between modulars should they be in a back-to-back situation.
The general floor depth of the modular is 90mm from underside
to finished surface and average weight is just over 1
Ton. The overall dimensions usually determine the weight
of the modular although the frame itself is usually only
50% of the weight of the steel frame and as low as 10%
of a concrete modular, without compromising durability.
This can lead to massive savings in the depth of the main
floor structure
