Pre-fabricated homes are a hit when it comes to the factor of sustainability. But many of us are not aware of the concept of pre-fabricated or modular homes. To create a finished structure, modules or prefabricated distinct pieces are stacked on top of one another. Dubai-based company LINQ has understood the importance of the Modular concept and has now introduced upcoming projects in Jebel Jais and Saudi Arabia.
LINQ Is Building Modular Components For Jebel Jais Hotel & NEOM
On the summit of Jebel Jais, LINQ has already finished building modular components for a brand-new luxury hotel. However, we are yet to hear the name of this project from the company. To create a finished structure, modules, or discrete prefabricated pieces, are stacked on top of one another. There should only be a need for connecting bolts for the structures on the property.
The massive, 26.500 square km Neom smart city project in Tabuk Province, northwest Saudi Arabia, is set to start construction under the direction of LINQ. So you might experience modular home facilities in the NEOM: The Future City of Sustainability.
Modular construction might provide a long-term answer to reducing residential waiting periods. The expanding world population is leading to an increasing demand for housing. It’s a challenging situation to meet the demands in less time. Hence, modular homes are creating a buzz. From its application in constructing opulent mountain hotels to creating massive new towns in isolated deserts, Modular houses are becoming a hit and the upcoming projects at Jebel Jais & Saudi’s Smart City will be sustainable and efficient.

What Materials Are Being Used For Such Pre-Fabricated Homes?
The growing business is experiencing a moment as the building industry transitions to a more sustainable future by reducing the use of concrete and utilising volumetric steel, timber, and biological waste materials compacted to make lasting slabs.
Considering that the world’s population is predicted to reach over 10 billion people by the year 2050, housing is a major worldwide issue. Another cause why modular building is no longer under the radar is the potential for shorter housing wait periods. Construction might start in the factory while the location is being equipped. A project moves ahead faster and is more productive as a result.
The first regional licence to develop structures up to six stories tall using the modular design has been awarded to Dubai-based LINQ Modular. We can’t wait to witness this modular beauty at the peak of Jebel Jais.
