Limbach Offsite Overview
Limbach has formed a strategic alliance with MEP Solutions, the premier modularized mechanical systems manufacturer from the UK. MEP brings twelve plus years of experience in modularized MEP systems in healthcare, education, government, commercial, airport and hotel projects, so that the lessons learned can be brought to bear on Limbach projects here in the US. MEP systems assists Limbach with the manufacturing engineering of distribution rack systems, generates module manufacturing drawings and materials planning packages through a proprietary Automodule(TM) software and provides temporary fabrication facility set-up assistance if needed for specific projects.
Benefits
Offsite mechanical systems offer the following benefits to the overall project:
- Safer projects – reduced work at height, less congestion and improved logistics on site
- Higher Productivity – tasks normally performed in a construction site environment are executed in a fabrication shop with stationary equipment and less material handling
- Enhanced quality control – work is performed in a controlled environment where inspection and testing practices are incorporated in standard work practices
- Schedule – compressed overall project schedules through manufacturing of mechanical system in parallel with site built elements
- Better fit and sequencing – access to the work is made easier by assembling components from all sides without the interference of building structure
- Minimization of waste – both material, through re-use of cut lengths, and time, through the elimination of the typical tool and material “searches” that occur on a congested project site
