MASSACHUSETTS DOT

The Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) was in urgent need of replacing two maintenance offices. To avoid operational disruption and minimize potential safety hazards that on-site construction would have generated in the busy MassDOT yards, MassDOT chose off-site modular construction.

MODLOGIQ’s unique “build-together” process enabled the modules to install with all exterior siding and roofing, as well as highly-finished interiors, ensuring a much shorter time on site. To maximize efficiency and minimize maintenance, the modular offices include solar panels equipped with natural gas fired backup generators with auto transfer, as well as high-efficiency interior light fixtures with occupancy sensors, high-efficiency natural gas HVAC units, energy efficient Rhino windows, and reflective white EPDM roofing. Both maintenance offices feature large storefront daylighting windows, factory applied custom exterior, epoxy floor toilet/shower rooms, clean, smooth interior finishes, and industrial-style accents like an open ceiling in the common areas. Integrated factory canopies protect the entryways.

These projects combine an ideal mix of architectural, structural, mechanical, and electrical features while maintaining strict adherence to budget requirements and stringent BBRS MA building codes—including ADA compliance—while delivering maximum efficiency and low maintenance costs.
