Question 9 • SVHS Building Construction ##FA

Why are some modular constructions exempt from the rule that buildings must be built from the ground up?

Answer
A
The components are prebuilt, meaning they may be assembled in a nontraditional order.
B
They are limited to only one or two stories, which means that they do not have to strictly follow the rules of construction.
C
They change regularly so they are not fixed to the ground like traditional structures.
D
They must be built from the top down to maintain structural integrity.

Explanation

Modular construction uses components that are built in advance, often in a factory, and then transported to the site for assembly. Because the pieces are prefabricated, construction does not have to follow the traditional ground-up sequence. The correct choice is A: the components are prebuilt and can be assembled in a nontraditional order.
