Amidst the housing supply and affordability challenges facing Canada, modular construction emerges as a promising solution offering enhanced efficiency and shortened project timelines. However, a widespread lack of knowledge persists within the industry and regulatory bodies regarding modular construction.
To address this gap, CSA has developed essential standards and guidelines, including CSA A277 for certification procedures, CSA Z250 for project delivery processes and CSA Z252 for approval considerations.
This workshop aims to deepen understanding of these standards and their pivotal role in supporting the modular construction sector. Participants will gain insights into the certification requirements, project delivery phases and approval processes outlined by CSA standards, empowering them to navigate modular construction projects effectively.
Additionally, the workshop will provide an overview of specialized training programs designed to educate authorities having jurisdiction (AHJs) and other stakeholders on the intricacies of modular construction, fostering informed decision-making and regulatory compliance.
