Speakers

Rochelle Lane Hill

Ms. Hill comes to Halfmoon Education with a deep background in design, she specializes in design for manufacturing, modular and off-site BIM. She has spent much of her 35 years of design experience focused on off-site construction using modular or panelized construction methods and the use of CAD/CAM software for DfMA and enjoys educating others on the benefits and challenges within the industry. Ms. Hill also has a passion for passive houses that is closely tied to design for manufacturing. During her CPHC training she discovered that modular and prefab construction were passive house concepts, a concept that she has been championing since 2006. She has experienced many modular and prefab start-ups to include Transform, Katerra and Modulous. Ms. Hill’s architectural experience includes working for a local passive house builder, passive panel manufacturers and being a part of the design team for a local passive house library. She lives just north of Seattle, WA with her spouse and enjoys mountain biking, kayaking, and racing her hydroplane race boat. She champions diversity and inclusion and equality.

Course Title: Modular Construction and Prefabricated Components: Residential, Multi-Family and Commercial Buildings

Delivery Method: Live Online

Course Description: This six-hour course focuses on the materials, design, manufacturing and assembly of residential, multi-family and commercial buildings using panelized construction and modular construction methods. The course begins by explaining the principles of off-site construction before analyzing the specific materials, components and systems used. The course will also address transportation, volumetric and logistical challenges specific to these methods of construction. Lastly, the course explains fabrication facility operations and explores case studies related to prefabricated components and modular buildings.

Learning Objectives:

Learning Objective 1:
Learners will be able to explain the differences between panelized construction and modular construction and describe the principles of Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DfMA) design method.

Learning Objective 2:
Learners will be able to analyze the components and materials used in panelized construction for open and closed walls systems, floors and roof systems.

Learning Objective 3:
Learners will be able to evaluate the types of modular buildings, including cold form steel, wood and CLT for residential and commercial projects and discuss specific transportation and logistical challenges.

Learning Objective 4:
Learners will be able to explain how material types affect the factory fabrication process and discuss recent developments of automation and CAD/CAM in modular construction.
