Hurricane & Disaster Relief: Immediate Delivery of Emergency Portable Buildings

Maria Oriendo2022-09-23T02:00:55+00:00

The last few years have brought many devastating natural disasters to communities across the country. Since 2016, every hurricane season has had above average activity bringing infamous hurricanes such as Harvey, Maria, and Irma in 2017 alone. Just last year, Louisiana was slammed by Hurricane Ida on the 16^th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina making landfall. Unfortunately, other natural disasters – such as tornadoes and wildfires – have also left their mark across the country, and communities have been forced to endure unspeakable destruction. It is difficult to imagine how to rebuild and go on. Here at Aries, we work to provide relief to those in some of the worst times of their lives through our emergency portable buildings.

However, Aries also provides affordable emergency portable buildings during difficult times of disaster. In the middle of an emergency, time and organization is essential for first responders.

Different populations will have unique needs in the aftermath of a natural disaster. One of the most vulnerable populations are patients in hospitals and those who require medical attention caused by the extraordinary circumstances. Aries has portable medical trailers that can serve as triage stations for rescuers. In addition, we work with local hospitals to provide larger modular buildings that can work as “hospitals on wheels.” Lastly, Our buildings, despite their size, can be moved quickly to keep both employees and patients safe in a disaster zone.

Our Priority is Always Safety

One of the biggest problems after a disaster is the displacement of a huge part of the population. Those who stayed to brave the storm have nowhere to go. And those who left have nowhere to come back to. Our priority is always safety, which is why we provide portable emergency housing. An area after a natural disaster is full of potential accidents and danger. Water is often unsafe to drink. The improper use of electric generators can kill, and there is often extreme heat or cold which causes more fatalities. All these can be avoided when people are provided a clean, warm bed under a stable roof. We can provide and contact every service necessary to make our portable buildings habitable and comfortable.

We have long strived for the title of the best modular building company. Aries has worked with big and small clients from a variety of sectors. Aries brings them creative solutions and also professional logistics planning. We believe some of our best services comes from providing relief to people in need during a very hard time. As we approach peak hurricane season, we hope there will be no need for our services, but we remain prepared to act at a moment’s notice.

Online Inventory: Modular Buildings Delivered Immediately

Maria Oriendo2022-06-16T01:59:47+00:00

Have you ever wondered how your old high school suddenly acquired new classrooms outside the main buildings almost overnight? Have you ever scratched your head trying to figure out where the cleanest bathrooms ever to grace a festival came from? These buildings almost feel mysterious, popping in and out of existence easily. Well, after today you will wonder no longer! Aries, the leading modular building provider, is the answer.

Aries, has been bringing unique portable and permanent modular construction solutions to a wide range of customers for over 20 years. When we say a wide range, we really do mean it. Let us dive into Aries’ vast online modular building inventory to learn about the wide scope of industries and end-applications using modular construction.

Education

Let us begin with those mysterious classrooms. It may have been odd to suddenly see a new building spring up, but in fact these are just portable classrooms. Aries offers many different custom floor plans tailored to the needs of each school district.

Just as you can customize the design, customers can also choose temporary or permanent uses for our prefabricated buildings. Your modular building is what you make of it. Community colleges, universities, public, and charter schools across the country use them, and the best part is that they are not limited to portable classrooms. Made to last, our clients have turned their modular buildings into cafeterias, preschools, and libraries. In short, portable schools are a safe and affordable option for all educators.

Healthcare

It may seem far-fetched, but your doctor’s office or local hospital may actually be a portable building. Sometimes a growing hospital needs expansions, but a construction site is not ideal in this environment. That is why relocatable medical facilities can be the solution.

In addition to planned modular building projects in the healthcare sector, Aries takes its role in saving lives seriously when assisting in disaster relief. During the pandemic, Aries worked quickly and tirelessly to create solutions in providing fast, portable emergency buildings.

With manufacturing capabilities, Aries allows construction to be performed off-site. Aries can complete your healthcare project in just half the time of traditional construction.

Customizable modules and an expert team of engineering professionals make it easy to select from a wide variety of healthcare facilities. Aries also makes it easy to design a facility from scratch that meets any and all of your specific requirements. Because every one of our modular buildings is under stringent codes and regulations, you will never have to worry about the quality and safety of your Aries’ modular facility.

Recreation

Here is where Aries’ fast delivery of portable buildings really comes into play. Big events or festivals really need to cater to the masses. Just as with the previously mentioned industries, Aries provides hundreds of floor plans in their used modular building inventory. Their modular buildings are fully customizable to accommodate the needs of any and every event, including prefabricated restrooms, locker rooms, and mobile cafeterias. Additional uses are office trailers, portable kitchens, and “swing space” for people to come together safely and efficiently.

Government

Aries is also capable of delivering professional-looking facilities for local, state, regional, and federal agencies. We recognize the urgency of governmental needs, and using modular buildings makes the time from construction to occupancy 50% faster.

Aries is proud to be a General Services Administration (GSA) approved vendor for modular buildings for more than 15 years. We are fully capable of meeting the stringent budget and time sensitive needs. Especially those of different branches of government agencies looking to expand using GSA-approved modular buildings.

Aries has an extensive track record of meeting the modular building needs of governmental agencies and educational institutions. From portable public classrooms to multi-story government buildings, Aries provides and installs structures of all sizes and for all applications. Aries also provides to customers across the United States and Canada. Aries has purchasing agreements in place with several cooperative purchasing organizations that enable their members to buy direct.

Workforce Housing, Crew Quarters, and Hotels

As a leading modular provider, Aries can tailor any project to fit your needs from headquarters to soldiers’ barracks. While Aries does deal in exceptional modular buildings for work crews, do not think that our portable buildings cannot provide great comfort as well. We understand that big operations require lots of manpower. That is why we offer crew housing with comfortable rooms, beds, kitchens, laundry facilities, and appliances. We commend companies who want to create a great “home away from home” for their traveling employees, and we are happy to be a part of it.

If you would like to delve deeper into our expertise on the topic of offering the best workforce housing accommodations in North America, see how Aries Residence Suites does it. Simply put, Aries isn’t just a modular building provider. We created an entire division devoted to hospitality and comfort for seasonal workers, energy workers, executive camps, and workforce housing for discerning companies who care about the comfort and productivity of their employees.

Commercial

This may feel like a “catch-all” category, but that is precisely the point! Our relocatable buildings are perfect for any need. Perhaps you are looking for a mobile office or construction trailer for a traditional job site. Aries provides both small and large floor plans for these exact needs. Our buildings are also great for entrepreneurs wanting to start their own small businesses. In fact, our mobile trailers act as great storage containers for any industry, commercial or not. Of course, Aries also features portable storage containers with floor plans viewable on our website available for immediate delivery.

These are just a few of the examples listed on the Aries online modular building inventory. As you can see, it is not an exaggeration to say your creativity is the limit when it comes to modular construction. Moreover, it saves time, money, and energy, while allowing clients flexibility in plans.

The Scariest Modular Building Inventions of All Time! (Scary Cool, That Is…)

catheryn2020-10-22T19:09:17+00:00

Oh, the autumn season. Here come the ghouls, ghosts, zombies, monsters, and witches. Halloween is meant to be scary, so we’re bringing you some wildly interesting modular building feats and that just might keep you on your toes… and peeking around the next corner…

Take, for example, Zhang Yue, the infamous founder and chairman of Broad Sustainable Building based in China’s Hunan Province; and the 30-story building he built in FIFTEEEN days. In a classic interview with Zhang covered by Wired Magazine: “Traditional construction is chaotic,” he says. “We took construction and moved it into the factory.” According to Zhang, his buildings will help solve the many problems of the construction industry. They will be safer, quicker, and cheaper to build. And they will have low energy consumption and CO₂ emissions. When Wired asked Zhang why he decided to start a construction company, he responds “It’s not a construction company,” he says. “It’s a structural revolution.” (Watch the time lapse here.)

Of course, many assume that modular building is a fairly new invention, perhaps something that came into being during the 20^th century. Let modular.org enlighten us:

The origins of modular buildings date back to the 1600s. One of the first reported modular homes was brought to life by a colonial American fisherman who had recently moved from England and wanted a home built with trusted English construction methods. The solution to this was to have a disassembled home shipped by boat across the Atlantic Ocean.

In the 1800s, as the United States expanded westward, modular construction began to make a more prominent appearance. During the California Gold Rush, mining towns boomed, and as they flourished, a quick housing solution was needed. More than 500 preassembled homes were built in factories in New York and then shipped across the country to California.

But it wasn’t until the end of the 19th century that the demand for modular homes started trending upwards. In 1897, E.F. Hodgson opened a manufacturing plant in Dover, Massachusetts which profited from the rapidly growing American population. The E.F Hodgson Company developed a catalog from which they sold modular homes across the country. Sears, Roebuck and Montgomery Ward soon followed in their footsteps and http://www.searsarchives.com/homes/history.htm of modular homes over the next few decades. (Read full article on modular.org.)

Now what about indigenous cultures that sought suitable housing for their lifestyle and climate? Could we consider these modular? You be the judge:

For nomadic tribes that followed the buffalo, it was imperative that their entire village was able to pick up very quickly and move along to another location (sounds a bit like workforce housing, no?) These relocatable quarters, or teepees, were built using many long wooden poles for the frame, then tied together snug at the top and spread out wide at the ground, making an upside-down cone shape. After this frame was tested for sturdiness, a giant covering made from buffalo hides was placed over the structure. This process took around 30 minutes, making it an extremely efficient way to live.

As tribes migrated, each family in the village would carry along their own poles and hides, erecting teepees around 12-feet tall. After horses came into the picture, they started building them twice as tall. Modular buildings, delivered by horse!

What do you think? Could it be our counties’ original portable buildings were invented on America’s Great Plains?

The modular construction team at Aries has slain the many-headed hydra that is modular construction and turned the process into a tame, effective operation; but there are still many aspects of the business that are frighteningly impressive.

One is the insane adaptability of the modular buildings. Whether its mobile offices, storage containers, modular educational facilities, or workforce housing, every client is accompanied by a specialist whose job is to design the building’s specs that exactly match the client´s needs.

For example, as the COVID-19 pandemic swept through the country, many schools began requesting that their modular classrooms come designed for disease prevention. A team of seasoned experts sat down with our school clients to design choices and buildings solutions that would allow them to get their academic processes back on track. Soon after, from the Aries´s owned factory, brand new units with automatic doors, non-contact infrared thermometers, and wall-mounted hand sanitizer stations began rolling out. How terrifyingly efficient!

But customization is not the only “freaky,” scary thing about modular construction. For years, modular buildings have solved challenges, offered innovation to the building industry, and downright fascinated us with visual flair and new ways to look at construction. From modular skyscrapers, to ultra-modern architectural design and specialized medical units, the modular construction industry has applied its time-tested process in diverse fields.

The “scariest” aspect of all is just how fast the process can go from first contact to final delivery. Everything from hooking up power and energy to permit acquisition can be done at a blistering rate, sure to scare the socks off the competition.

So, this Halloween come be scared in all the right ways with a new modular building or modular office, designed and delivered for you!

Immediate Modular Buildings for Disaster Relief

marshall2019-02-08T20:28:32+00:00

What do we do after the most powerful storm of the century hits the Atlantic region? First, we cast down our heads and hearts, and mourn the loss of “all that was” before tragedy struck. And then… we rebuild. On the heels of Hurricane Harvey, Hurricane Irma tore her way through the Caribbean up through Florida, Georgia, and beyond on September 6^th, 2017 – leaving pure devastation in her path, leveling communities and stamping out power grids. The Category 5 storm delivered a deadly mix of flooding and wind. A desperate situation, but not one without hope. Communities have pulled together, including our team at Aries, in order to help the effort – in the form of modular buildings for disaster relief.

The Telegraph reports The devastation wrought by Hurricane Irma across the Caribbean will not dampen the region’s resolve to continue to be one of the world’s most popular holiday destinations, tourism bosses have said. Though some islands, notably the British Virgin Islands, Barbuda and St Martin, suffered extensive damage from one of the strongest storms to hit the region in a decade, the Caribbean tourist board said fewer than 10 per cent of hotels and resorts are set to be closed for longer than a week.

“The best way to help us rebuild is to continue with your holiday plans, keep making your holiday plans,” said Colin James, the CEO of the Antigua and Barbuda tourist board, the latter of which was reduced to “rubble” by Irma, which damaged 90% of the island’s buildings. “We are working very hard to help Barbuda, but it will take a year for repairs to be fully completed.”

Meanwhile, President Trump makes his third visit to storm-ravaged parts of the United States in the past few weeks after two major hurricanes, and he again praised the federal government’s performance. “We’re doing a good job in Florida,” Mr. Trump said to reporters on Air Force One, according to the New York Times.

The role of modular buildings for disaster relief efforts is a large one. Immediate solutions are what is needed, and portable buildings are a quick answer to the call for help. Those who have been affected by Hurricane Irma who are in need of emergency modular buildings may choose from the existing inventory of portable structures or request construction of a new building with custom design. Aries Building Systems can also provide emergency assistance on a larger scale, e.g., delivering a structure to serve as a temporary schoolhouse or medical facility.

It’s important to remember that modular building companies in Texas, Florida, Georgia, or the Caribbean aren’t always able to provide the “full scope” of services like Aries Buildings is capable of providing. Besides having the ability to finance, develop, design & manufacture modular buildings, Aries offers every option possible in the face of emergency housing or building needs:

Design/Build Engineering
In House Manufacturing
In House Transportation Arm
Construction Services and General Construction
Civil Work
Land Development
Capital and Finance Leasing
Logistics Contracting including:
Food Service and Cleaning
Security and Transportation Services
Laundry and Tailoring Services
Waste Management
Vector Control
Labor Support and Supply
Tailor made Maintenance Contracts
Power Transmission and Design Including Generators
Water Storage, Pumping and Sewer Treatment
Consulting

Aries has a history of providing emergency modular buildings for disaster relief, including the devastating Canadian wildfire of May 2016 and recent flooding in Louisiana resulting from long periods of torrential downpours in August 2016. With the experience and expertise of the Aries’ workforce, exceptional and fast service is guaranteed.
