The construction industry is facing a labor shortage challenge that is expected to worsen in years to come. This has motivated more companies and governments to explore modular construction, which is faster and solves the labor shortage problem. Additionally, companies in this space have digitized the design process to make it more efficient and affordable.

I’m your host, Jennifer Piper, and today I’m joined by Derek England, NX Product Manager for AEC and BIM at Siemens Digital Industries Software. He’ll help us understand modular construction and its impact on the industry. He’ll also help us understand the role of Siemens NX in this relatively new field.

In this episode, you’ll learn the factors that have led to the rise of modular construction. You’ll also learn about the two types of modular construction and the benefits of each. Lastly, you’ll hear about the benefits of using the digital twin in the building design process.
