Evaluation of triangles triple restriction on conventional construction and modular construction-Example: New building of the University of the Coast

Abstract

This document evaluates and compares the modular construction system against the conventional construction system, analyzing it from the triangle of the triple restriction of the PMBOK guide (5th edition), which corresponds to the analysis of the scope, time and cost that can be achieve in the execution, which is focused directly on a real building of higher education, as a case study was used the university corporation of the CUC coast located in the city of Barranquilla. The main purpose of the research is to demonstrate the strengths, advantages and disadvantages of each construction system and once the real results were obtained to be able to make the application in professional practice for the management of the works and the execution of higher education projects, in this way the new construction processes are potentialized as a contribution to the development of architecture and innovation in Colombia, which is a country that is seeking to enter new methodologies and construction systems which must be aligned with the management issues that are being applied in the construction guild.
