Modular and offsite construction, also known as the industrialized construction process, saves on both time and costs while also creating high quality products in safe and healthy work environments. This year’s MOC Summit will unite industry experts and researchers in highlighting and exploring the challenges and benefits to modular and offsite construction.
The Summit consists of three full days of sessions, speakers, and networking opportunities in addition to two manufacturing facility walking tours at Lafarge and AQBUILT – providing attendees with insight into the construction process.
