Modular Buildings and Storage Containers for Schools
United Rentals is here to design, deliver and install temporary modular buildings and storage and office containers for schools and other institutions when they need extra storage space, administration offices or additional classrooms. When schools need more space for new construction, expansion or other needs, storage containers and modular buildings provide additional storage and workspace for students and staff. Our secure shipping containers are ideal for storing seasonal equipment and maintenance supplies. Our office trailers and ground-level offices can be delivered quickly for that extra administrative space, faculty break rooms, ticket sales kiosks, and locker rooms you need for staff or for upcoming sports and extracurricular events. With the 2021 acquisition of Pac-Van, Inc., our inventory and staff are better equipped than ever to help you find the right solution for your facility.
Need temporary classrooms customized for your school’s colors? We can design, deliver and install modular classrooms built to your specifications. When customers need school trailers, expanded administrative offices, teacher break rooms and restrooms, we can provide a total solution for students and staff on shorter timelines than traditional construction.
30-plex University of Cincinnati — Wilson Auditorium Modular Building
The University of Cincinnati uses this modular school building as a swing space for the university, which was running increasingly low on space. Además de agregar más módulos en un corto período, las innovaciones técnicas para este proyecto incluyeron cambios en la disposición interior de los dos edificios escolares portátiles.
Classroom sizes at the university needed to be considerably bigger than the original classroom areas of the modular building. Our team worked with Mark Line Industries to design larger portable classroom sizes. Al retirar las paredes de carga e instalar vigas de LVL (chapa de madera laminada) soportadas en postes de acero dentro de la cavidad del techo, pudimos crear módulos de vidrio transparente. Este cambio de diseño nos permitió duplicar el tamaño de cada salón de clase.
El proyecto Espacio Provisional para el Auditorio Wilson destaca la serie de proyectos de reutilización que hemos completado con la Universidad de Cincinnati. La universidad compró los edificios escolares prefabricados usados de un distrito escolar público local por una fracción del costo original.
By reusing an existing set of buildings, the customer was able to have their entire swing space plan completed before the start of the fall trimester. With the space in place in such a short time, the university was able to move on to the next phase of its expansion and renovation project.
