Modularization & Prefabrication On this edition of BuiltWorlds Modularization and Pre-Fabrication Calls we met with Sam Tikriti, Volumetric Building Companies’ chief operating officer to discuss the state of modularization generally and also the story behind his firms’ recent acquisition of Katerra’s state-of-the art facility in Tracy, CA. Sam brings over 20 years of national and international experience in design, construction and development across different industries including traditional, modular, pre-engineered, and precast construction in a multitude of project applications including commercial, residential, industrial, healthcare, retail and education. Joining Sam on the call to provide another perspective on modular in the industry, is James Dunn, President of Stack Modular, a Vancouver-based modular building company. Stack leverages a partnership with leading Canadian contractor, Bird Construction and a global supply chain to offer what they claim is “the most economic modular steel structures on earth, finished with some of the best construction products, fixtures and furnishings on the global market today.”
