We are delighted to be able to share images of a volumetric housing development we are working on with Cluid Housing at The Gallops, Co Cavan. Thirty four houses are being installed using pre-fabricated room pods and rafters. 80% of the construction takes place in a controlled factory environment, with only 20% construction required on site. See our LinkedIn Video for more images.
Cogent Associates Director Herve Besse was a keynote speaker this week at the CitA Ltd hosted event ‘Modern Methods of Construction’. This is part of CitA’s Digital Transformation series of lectures. Drawing on recent experience, Cogent presented findings from both a programme and commercial perspective.
A summary of the speakers who presented at this event is available in pdf and the various presentations on the CitA event page.

The modular element of construction is designed to maximise off site manufacture and reduce overall on site construction time, in order to facilitate a rapid delivery of the units. Similar developments in terms of scale and modular construction methods are underway at Bunratty Road and Cork Street, with other sites in planning.
This project is one of several modular developments that our Cost Management Team are currently working on, both public and private.
