The question about transporting Prefab structures is one of the most popular. It is always important for our clients to understand where the structures are made and how they are transported to the construction site.
There are several transportation methods:
Road haulage using low loaders
Road haulage using low loaders on which 2 modules are simultaneously placed. At the factory the modules are packed in a special heat-shrink film, which protects the module from environmental influences during transportation.
The standard overall dimensions of modules are designed specifically for transportation by road as oversized cargo, but without police escort.
Rail transportation
Transporting modules by rail over longer distances and to hard-to-reach areas is the second possible way to deliver structures to the construction site.
Knauf Group factory in Krasnogorsk city has its own railway dead end, where loading on the railway platform is carried out. The modules have special packaging that protects structures from environmental influences, dirt and other negative factors.
Sea Transportation
Transportation by sea is used to deliver the modules to hard-to-reach areas including the Far North, and other areas where it is impossible to reach by road and rail.
The overall dimensions of the module may vary depending on the method of transportation and customer needs for optimization of logistics costs.
