Yorkon, has launched a new building
system with thousands of
configurations that, it says, will help
realise the full potential of off-site
construction as an efficient
alternative to site-based building
methods without compromising on
design, aesthetics or layout.

The system incorporates:
Columns that are not visible either
internally or externally
The facility to fit any building
footprint, including those designed
for site-based construction
Module lengths from 6 to 18.75m
Module widths of 3 and 3.75m;
three height options for singlestorey
buildings, and seven
different heights for ground and
intermediate floors on multistorey
schemes
Connections between modules
carried out from inside the
building
The option of angled corners
A system built to engineering
rather than construction
tolerances.

Yorkon says the benefits of off-site
construction include: programme
times reduced by up to 50%; 99.9%
recycling of waste material in the
factory and 92% recycling on site;
less disruption; improved thermal
efficiency for lower running costs
and reduced carbon emissions; and
greater assurance of delivery on time
and on budget.
