Yes. Modules are built more precisely with machine tools in a factory environment. Gypsum board panels are foam bonded and screw fastened to wall and ceiling framing. The use of oversized gypsum board panels avoids butt end seams common in site building. The modules are over-designed structurally to withstand the rigors of shipping. Redundant structural systems provide reduced sound transmission between floors and yield a superior product.
