With proper maintenance, a modular classroom can last for several decades, often ranging from 20 to 30 years or more. The lifespan can vary based on the quality of materials used, environmental factors, and the level of care provided.
How long does it take to build a modular school?
The construction time for a modular school can vary based on its size and complexity. However, in general, modular schools can be built in a fraction of the time required for traditional construction, often within a few months.
How many students can fit in a portable classroom?
