Twenty-Nine-Unit 25,000 sq ft Modular Classroom Buildings Delivered to All Four Chelmsford Elementary Schools
In summer 2017 Triumph Modular pulled off one of the largest single-season feats in Massachusetts education history: building and installing 29 modular classroom units totaling 25,000 sq ft of modular classrooms across all four Chelmsford elementary schools so every portable classroom was 100 % ready when students walked in that September.
The Challenge
Add 25 classrooms plus restrooms district-wide before the first bell, with three schools getting eight modular classrooms each and one getting five, all on separate sites and all classified as temporary yet built to permanent standards.
Solution: 7-Day-a-Week Summer Sprint
Crews worked non-stop through summer 2017. Twenty-nine factory-built modular units were installed on full foundations with concrete decks, stitched together, and finished with permanent-quality interiors. Every modular classroom building opened on schedule.
