🏢 Modular Buildings: Construction Standards in NY and NJ ! We would like to share information about construction standards for modular buildings in New York (NY) and New Jersey (NJ). 🏗️ Modular Buildings in NY: Factory Manufactured Buildings (Modular) in NY are commercial or residential structures constructed using a method where components are manufactured off-site. These buildings are intended for permanent installation on a building site. Modular buildings in NY must adhere to the requirements of the Uniform Code and State Energy Code. Each modular building must bear an Insignia of Approval issued by the Department of State, indicating compliance with standards and regulations. The installation of a modular building must conform to local requirements and be subject to permitting, inspection, and approval by the local Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). While the Department reviews and approves modular buildings for compliance with the Uniform Code and State Energy Code, it does not handle “above code” or “stretch” codes. 🏠 Modular Buildings in NJ: Modular buildings in NJ are intended for installation on permanent foundations (without relocation) and are designed to meet the state’s adopted building codes. NJ participates in an Interstate Compact for the construction of modular buildings. The federal government oversees the installation of manufactured homes in NJ, and installation contractors must be licensed by HUD and attend continuing education classes. This information is crucial for professionals in the construction industry. Feel free to share your experience and insights in the comments! 👷♂️🏢 #ConstructionStandards #ModularConstruction #NYConstruction #NJConstruction #BuildingCodes #ConstructionIndustry #BuildingDesign #Architecture #UrbanDevelopment #ConstructionManagement
