Modular Buildings: A Timeless Solution Since Before the Pilgrims

marshall2024-11-13T18:36:52+00:00

“So you know the trailer classrooms at my school?” said my niece. “Yes,” I responded. “I realized today the Native Americans were making those modular buildings long before that Aries company you work with!” Hmm. The holidays often bring about introspection, especially for children. But my niece had a point worth pondering, so I did. And now I’m passing these wispy thoughts and information on to you, so as you walk forward in the world of construction trailers, mobile offices, and other prefab dwellings, you can think back to the original portable buildings of America’s Great Plains.

For thousands of years, Native Americans sought housing suitable for their lifestyle and climate. 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. In the summer time, the buffalo hide could be raised, allowing the cool plains air to flow through the gap at the bottom. And in the winter, the teepee could be quickly insulated by adding additional coverings over the structure and building a fire inside, allowing the smoke to flow out the hole on top of the teepee.

When it gets down to it, not much has changed when it comes to what we look for in a portable building.

Time savings

Since the construction of modular buildings can take place simultaneously with the site & foundation work, projects can be completed in almost half the time as traditional construction, not to mention the elimination of weather delays.

Safety

Prefabricated buildings are built to meet or exceed the same building codes and standards as site-built structures, and the indoor construction environment reduces the risks of accidents for workers.

Quality

Modular buildings are assembled with the same materials, building codes, and architectural specifications as traditional construction, using BIM technology to assess energy performance and identify the most-cost effective measures in advance.

Environmentally conscious

Modular construction takes place within a controlled facility, minimizing site disturbance, besides reducing waste and continued need for raw materials – as the same modular unit can be used time and time again.

Adaptability

A portable classroom can have another life as a mobile office. A mobile container can be customized into a construction trailer. Modular units can also be designed to fit in with external aesthetics of any existing structures, making them virtually indistinguishable from any other architecture.

When it’s all said and done, the most important part of the equation is the families which make up the village. Although the days of the North American nomadic tribes are passed, the responsibility to “create your own space” still remains in the hands of the families within our communities. The Native Americans worked together as a unit in order to make sure their community was safe, fed, and had the opportunity to grow in the face of change. Here at Aries, we still value that keeping people cool, warm, safe, and comfortable is still the goal. And as a family-owned business, we believe in helping our communities grow in every way we can.

How Will My Used Modular Building Be Delivered?

marshall2018-12-18T17:44:57+00:00

It all comes down to process. For modular buildings they are able to become a more practical, environmentally friendly, and efficient alternative to traditional construction because they consider how to increase productivity every step of the way and provide a fully constructed building upon delivery. The question is, how in the world does Aries Building Systems achieve such a delivery?

The Prep

Before delivery even begins, there is a substantial amount of prep work done in order to ensure that not only the delivery, but installation upon arrival is possible. When selecting the location where the modular building will be placed our clients and us consider grade, soil, proximity to water and sewer lines, existing structure, etc. in order to ensure that the building can be safely delivered and installed. Once the location is approved, a site crew can begin to prepare the site for the delivery. This preparation can include foundation work, utilities, walkways and many other critical components to a successful delivery.

The Delivery

Modular buildings are built to withstand the rigors of transportation and craning onto foundations but that doesn’t make the process any less impressive. The buildings are built with what are called pick points where the panel or module can be lifted by crane onto trucks designed specifically to tow them. The crane may vary depending on the building but the most common is a hydraulic crane; crawler cranes or tower cranes are also used in certain circumstances. Once loaded onto the truck the building makes its very slow journey to the site.

During transport, these trucks typically are accompanied by escorts because of the vast size of the units (often taking up more than one lane) and because they often drive below the speed limit to ensure the building does not become damaged. This entire process not only requires the coordination between Aries and our clients but also state governments. Each state has differing permits, codes, lead cars, and fees required for such a delivery which means the delivery for a used building may change slightly on a case by case basis. Once arrival at the site, another crane is used to lift the building off the truck and onto the foundation. At this point external connections such as water, alarm systems and data lines can be made to the building.

The Advantage

So in this complicated waltz, what makes it worthwhile? Simply, time and money. While this individual step may seem more complex than the delivery of materials to a traditional construction site, the time saved by building off-site and delivering the completed building can cut a projects time in half. Aries Building Systems’s process creates an efficiency designed to save you money in the long run and have a building delivered, ready for use after just a few easy steps.

What You Need to Look for in a Modular Building Manufacturer

marshall2018-12-18T17:54:16+00:00

Modular buildings are taking the world by storm, gaining new interest daily. If you are among the many that have decided a modular building would be your best option, there are a few things to consider when choosing a modular building manufacturer. As with any service, some companies shine far brighter than others. Here are a few key things to consider.

Building Quality and Versatility

Almost every company’s website includes an “inventory” tab. Browse this tab to get a feel for the company’s building style and availability. A lot of variety in size, dimensions, and style is a good sign of the company’s creativity and versatility.

The inventory usually consists of buildings that are currently available, but most companies will work with you to develop your own design, and custom build for you.

Value-Added Services/Features

In addition to versatility and originality in design, your chosen modular building manufacturer should offer services that help your building “keep up with the times.” For example, some companies offer video systems for uses such as security and conferences.

Variety in Industries Served

While browsing company websites, check out what types of industries the company typically works with. Your manufacturer may have experience producing buildings to be used for education, government, healthcare, disaster relief, etc. Also check whether the manufacturer has experience with any “specialty buildings.” For example, blast-resistant modular buildings are specifically manufactured to resist explosive damage and increase personnel safety.

Alternative Construction Method

By going the modular route, you are almost guaranteed to save time, relative to traditional construction. You can save even more time by choosing a modular building manufacturer that offers alternative construction methods. With this method, land is prepared while manufacturing is in progress. This way, the foundation for the building is fully ready for installation once the building is ready for delivery.

Cost Savings

Again, by going the modular route, you are almost guaranteed to save $$! Save even more by choosing a modular building manufacturer that offers financing options. Explore the manufacturer’s financing options, and don’t settle for less. The company may offer financing for both renting and purchasing.

You can also save money by choosing a manufacturer that specializes in “turnkey” projects. Turnkey projects typically involve all aspects of production occurring under one roof. That is, one company handles the design, manufacture, engineering, transportation and installation, saving significant time and money.

Maintenance

If your chosen modular building manufacturer has a site location permit, this means the manufacturer is legally permitted to manage the maintenance of your building, including check-ups and repairs, as needed. This can be very convenient for you, as you won’t need to hire an outside source, and your manufacturer will already be familiar with your building’s needs.

Consider these factors when shopping for a modular building manufacturer to get the best bang for your buck. Aries Building Systems offers the turnkey advantage with exceptional customer service and cost savings. Contact us today at: 780-910-1548 or [email protected]

Behold The Prefab Wonderland in Aries’ Used Relocatable Building Inventory

marshall2024-11-13T18:06:53+00:00

James Cash Penney wisely stated, “Growth is never by mere chance; it is the result of forces working together.” Katie Roman, VP of Sales & Marketing at Aries said, “Collectively, our growth strategy is to skillfully work hard. We did, we are, and we will. Which is why we consistently find success.” Coincidence? We think not! Great industry leaders, from the department store business to the modular building industry, understand that mountains can be moved when people work together with undivided passion and skill towards a defined goal. The recent growth of modular building leader Aries Building Systems reflects this mindset, and they continue to strive to be the industry game changer when it comes to new modular construction, prefab used buildings, and relocatable housing. But alas, today we are focusing on Aries’ vast wonderland of used relocatable building inventory… and it’s gonna leave you slack-jawed if you’re a fiend of this sort. A modular building fiend, that is.

Recently, Aries Building Systems – and their partners at Advanced Modular Space – coordinated the launch of a spectacular online inventory of prefab buildings. We’re talking hundreds of used modular buildings that can be bought, leased, and even financed, thanks to the “Aries Turnkey Advantage” way of doing things. From entire workforce housing solutions to relocatable construction trailers, you can find what you’re looking on Aries’ used modular inventory pages. (They are known for their proficiency at delivering custom prefab buildings, too. So you really can’t go wrong.)

Let’s take a deeper dive into the specifics…

Commercial

Relocatable buildings for commercial use can encompass everything from prefab real estate offices to the ever-so-hip-right-now restaurant trailers and any modular custom facility you could dream up. Amongst the wide scope of offerings, Aries has multiple mobile office trailers in a plethora of sizes: single, double, triple, quad, and higher available.

Recreation, Kitchen, and Rest Rooms

Maybe even in that order, because that’s a sign of a full life and a joyful existence! Whether you’re in the market for relocatable workout gyms or ringing the dinner bell to feed the masses, mobile trailers come in all shapes and sizes, and Aries has them all.

Crew Quarters & Hotel

It’s no secret that one of the many reasons Aries is a leader in used relocatable buildings is because they lead a double life. This is not a tawdry tale of secretly leasing modular restrooms to the enemy, but their noble effort to provide temporary workforce housing to companies that care enough to give their employees a “home away from home.” The vessel to this noble quest: Aries Residence Suites. Feel free to Google the heck outta them. They are killing it on the workforce housing front. Mobile crew trailers are the name of the game and relocatable hotel buildings which possess comfortable bedrooms, fully functional kitchens, and even up-to-date appliances upon request is how Aries aims to please. Visit our super special devoted landing page on the Aries Residence Suites website which features pictures and floorplans, or just get to it on our used mobile crew trailer inventory pages. By the way, you’ll even find mobile laundry trailers, prefab locker rooms, and all the kinds of things you’d expect to find in the area of crew quarters and modular hotels.

Classroom (Education)

Much like the Crew Quarters & Hotel section above, we’d be remiss in not mentioning, well, Aries doesn’t lead a double life, but maybe a triple life. In fact, let’s just scratch the covert references all together. This whole thing is out in the open, and Aries has way more going on that any other U.S. modular building company. There’s a certain division of Aries named Class Leasing devoted, but not limited to, relocatable classrooms. Aries as a whole have been very busy in the educational sector, recently winning awards from The Modular Building Institute for their work with Birdville ISD, a school system in Haltom City Texas, and taking home top honors in the relocatable education category for their work with the Ascension Parish School Board’s Flood Recovery Temporary Classrooms, in Gonzales, LA.

Medical

Aries can help you help them! From customized modular hospital buildings to mobile medical trailers and beyond, Aries provides a plethora of customizable options to meet all your temporary and/or permanent healthcare needs. Because every modular buildings Aries sells or leases, new or used, is under stringent codes and regulations, you will never have to worry about the quality and safety of your Aries modular facility.

Container & Construction

Aries now offers container buildings. Single mobile container, storage container, standard container buildings, generator container buildings, portable storage units… the list goes on! Portable construction trailers are a hot item, and Aries has a wide selection on their used portable building inventory pages.

A Special Note: Temporary Buildings for Disaster Relief

“Sometimes in life we get the opportunity to bring our work life into our personal life and ethics. Knowing that we have made a real difference in the face of disaster is the biggest career reward.”

Katie Roman, VP of Sales & Marketing, Aries Building Systems

Aries has a history of delivering emergency relocatable buildings for disaster relief, including the devastating Canadian wildfire of May 2016 and, recently being awarded by the Modular Building Institute for their work in response to the flooding in Louisiana resulting from long periods of torrential downpours in August 2016. Aries has a devoted international emergency relief page on their website.

Aries is owned by Reliant Asset Management, a leading specialty rental company providing premier modular space solutions to customers throughout North America.

Aries to Attend Permian Basin International Oil Show

marshall2018-12-18T17:59:03+00:00

The Permian Basin International Oil Show is a convention showcasing products and services pertaining to the oil and gas industry. This three-day event will be held from October 16^th to October 18^th 2018 in Odessa, Texas with hundreds of vendors featured including Aries Building Systems LLC. The oil and gas industry is one of the most prominent industries around the world and is a staple in the world economy, making this convention a hub for big business opportunities and networking.

The Permian Basin has been a hub for oil and gas production since the 1920’s and continues to remain a steady region. Aries Building Systems is all too aware of this because of the workforce housing we provide to oil field workers through Aries Residence Suites. We will be in attendance at the convention in order to establish new contracts, share our ideas and experiences in the industry, and develop our relationships in the oil and gas industry.

History of the Permian Basin Oil Show

Starting off with a mere 35 exhibits in 1940, this now world-wide event has transformed from a ‘little international oil show’ in the boomtown of Odessa to a booming event all of its own. The convention lasted two years then had to hold off during World War II, reconvening in 1950. The project was revived by oilmen from the Permian Basin and they formed the non-profit organization – The Permian Basin Oil Show, Inc. They initially presented in October of 1952 and have held the event every two years since.

In 1994 the show was renamed to The Permian Basin International Oil Show, Inc. to aptly represent the large number of international companies in attendance.

This year’s show

With over 700 oil- and gas-related companies, this year’s Permian Basin International Oil Show, Inc. will have over 1,167 spaces. The event is held in the Ector County Coliseum and will have a variety of attendees including geologists, field operators, businesses owners, and everything in-between.

The event is an opportunity to educate industry professionals on the latest trends and technologies in the industry and bring professionals together; all while honoring the history of the oil and gas industry and its leaders.

If you will be in attendance, please visit our booth to see what Aries Building Systems has to offer and learn how we specialize in supplying full turnkey man camps, remote workforce housing, and commercial modular buildings systems to a wide range of industries and applications across the US and Canada.

Our booth will actually be a full crew quarters unit for those that want to see first hand what Aries can provide. Stop by to see the layout and top-notch accommodations!

VisionARIES – Q&A with Jim Benedict (Spotlight)

marshall2024-10-16T14:15:54+00:00

Your formal title at Aries:

Vice President of Sales- RAM Modular Canada

Your job duties & responsibilities:

Business development, sales, operations.

How long have you been at Aries?

4 years.

Where did you work prior to Aries; was it in the same industry or something totally different?

I was introduced to the remote camp/ modular accommodation sector during my 10 years in Sales at SYSCO Foodservice. Building an extensive network and relationships in foodservice selling to camp caterers led me to a career in Modular, and ultimately with RAM Modular Canada.

When you’re not at work, what would we find you doing?

My wife (Brandee) and I spend most of our time volunteering for my daughter (Makenna) at her local gymnastic club or as “roadies” for my oldest daughter (Hailey) as she pursues her career as a country singer/songwriter. Otherwise I try to stay active playing flag football, golf or hockey when I get the chance.

Hometown?

St. Albert, Alberta

Family, children?

Married to Brandee for 17 years, 2 daughters, Makenna 14 and Hailey 16.

What would “your perfect day” consist of?

A long term lease award to start the day, followed by a round of golf and spending time with my family.

What’s your favorite part about working for Aries so far?

I appreciate the communication and expertise of the employees and senior management. As the lone Canadian employee I am continually included and supported by everyone in the organization. I also value the confidence and shared vision our senior team has in the Canadian market as we strive to increase our market share.

What sets Aries apart from other companies that deliver the exact same things?

Primarily what sets Aries apart from our competitors is how everyone in the organization performs day to day tasks with purpose, integrity and honesty. Our clients appreciate dealing with a company that is interested in sharing in their success and growing together.

What do you hope to bring to Aries in terms of leadership and company culture?

Canada has been a challenging market over the last 4 years. I hope that our existing clients continue to see the quality and commitment to our brand and to their success and that potential clients understand that they have a competitive, viable option from a company that will work relentlessly on their behalf.

If you weren’t working for Aries, what job would you probably have?

Haha, I don’t think an 18 handicap would put me on the PGA tour so I’m probably exactly where I should be!

What do you think the future holds for Aries?

I believe that the modular business in North America is poised to grow as costs to build permanent structures increase and skilled labour becomes tougher to keep. Institutional, construction and the resource sector are all growing and relying on relocatable structures more and more as a means to save on large capital expenditures and meet tough time constraints. Our business model allows Aries to take on these burdens for the client so they can focus on their core competencies.

Aries: Proud Vendors for Allied States Cooperative

marshall2024-10-16T23:18:55+00:00

Aries Building System LLC. is a proud vendor for Allied States Cooperative, a.k.a. the ESC-Region 19 Purchasing. The ESC-Region 19 is a national governmental purchasing cooperative that bids and awards contracts to vendors at every level that comply with local, state, and federal procurement laws and regulations. They focus on contracts available to public schools, charter schools, private schools, community colleges, universities, cities, counties, other governmental agencies, and nonprofits.

The role of the organization is to aid teachers and administrators in the El Paso, Texas area by linking the districts and charter schools they serve and the Texas Education Agency (the administrative unit of the Texas public education system). So… why is it important for Aries to be a vendor of this Cooperative? Let us give a detailed explanation of Allied States and the benefits/advantages it provides for its customers… and you will see why.

What exactly does Allied States Cooperative (ESC Region-19) do? Why be a vendor?

The mission of Allied States Cooperative says they are, “…committed to ensuring success for all students by providing quality services to all educational partners in our region through a continuous improvement process.” As mentioned before, Choice Partners offers procurement and contract solutions to meet educational purchasing requirements. This means that the organization completes the legal, competitively-bid procurement process so that their members can instantly access contracts.

This can be for anything from food contracts to technology products or even facilities planning & facility contracts. The latter is the category Aries falls under. We help with repair, remediation, renovation and remodeling of facilities.

As a vendor, Aries puts out bids to work with these members and provide them with any modular building needs they may have. It allows members direct access to our products without having to jump through the government regulation hoops.

Advantages for members and vendors

Because the contracts are already competitively procured, members are able to make purchases quicker, therefore creating more business opportunity for Aries. The quick turnaround time for getting the contracts squared away means Aries can work with more organizations, within a wider range of industries.

Allied States Cooperative is just one of many cooperative memberships that Aries is a vendor for; check out our ‘Purchasing Contracts’ for more details. Or, if you believe that Aries could be of service to your organization and provide you modular building solutions in some other way, please visit us at ariesbuildings.com or give us a call at (888) 702-0134.

Know Your Different Modular Building Leases

Know Your Different Modular Building Leases

As the business world becomes progressively faster paced, the utility and usefulness of modular construction has become well-known to project managers looking for a versatile solution to their space problem. From a portable container to store on-site construction materials, to a full-scale temporary modular campus, modular buildings are being used more and more every day.

To help companies that are looking to quickly finance modular buildings, Aries Building Systems has put into place several attractive leasing options to choose from. Low interest rates make leasing an incredibly affordable option, even when considering additional costs like delivery and installation.

Leasing modular buildings also means that you can avoid amortization fees. Leasing includes all the same things that purchase does: delivery, installation, site work costs – although some costs may not be rolled into the leasing contract and may have to be paid up front.

The aesthetic design of modular buildings have come a long way and are a far cry from the grey, drab structures of yesteryear. Now, they can be custom built and designed to fit any floor plan for any application – from portable containers to modular classrooms and offices, with a wide array of potential amenities to boot. With all that being said, what’s the best leasing option for you?

SHORT TERM LEASE

A vast majority of our business comes from companies who are looking to make use of a modular building for a short period of time. In this instance, a short-term lease is preferable. Rather than make a commitment to a long-term lease with a traditionally constructed building, a modular building gives you the freedom to lease only the time that you need. This can potentially save your company thousands of dollars in costs!

Low monthly payments are the main benefit to choosing a short term modular building lease. Monthly rates are based of the type of building you and length of lease that you choose. A short term modular building lease delivers with it a high level of flexibility, and typically range from 12 to 60 months.

OPERATING LEASE W/ BUYOUT

With an operating lease with a buyout option, you are able to own your modular building at the end of the lease term that you select. When choosing this option, you are allowed to choose both the lease term and the buyout amount. You simply pay the monthly lease rate, and, at the end of the lease term, you can complete the building purchase by paying the buyout amount you selected.

Typically, an operating lease w/ buyout has a term length between 24 and 72 months, with buyout options in the range of a few thousand dollars. Another major benefit is the fact that Aries owns the building entirely throughout the lease term. That means that you don’t have to be bothered with maintenance costs. At the end of the lease, you take full ownership.

MUNICIPAL LEASE

This is a low interest financing alternative available to government and municipalities, schools, and some charter schools.

LONG-TERM LEASE

Longer-term modular building operating leases offer lower payments and peace of mind knowing you are locked in at your rate for the term of the modular building lease. Short-term portable modular building leases are perfect for swing space or when you are not exactly sure how long you will need the temporary space. All of our operating leases can be renewed an unlimited number of times, giving you the flexibility to effortlessly balance your budget and space needs.

Knowing the variety of lease types available prepares you to select the right modular building to fit your needs. All of these lease types are available at Aries Building System and can be browsed via our online modular inventory page.

If you believe that Aries could be of service to your organization and provide you with the lease you need, please visit us ariesbuildings.com or give us a call at (888) 702-0134.

We love to work with any industry, but we have picked the Top 5 industries that utilize our modular buildings.

1. Commercial

Our projects are completed 50% faster than traditional on-site construction making us an ideal choice for a business that is ready to move forward quickly. Because our buildings are designed in modules, we help bring commercial visions to life by catering to a business’ specific requests. Take our work with Les Schwab Tires for example. We provided the company with modular buildings to serve as temporary showrooms while they remodel over 470 locations. Other examples of commercial applications that can utilize our modular buildings are:

Real estate offices
Corporate offices
Banks
Restaurants
Community or country clubs
Hotels and motels
Entertainment facilities
Camps
Franchises
Any other custom facility

2. Government

Building a government facility means adhering to rigid requirements and specifications; something Aries is more than capable of doing. Whether for local, state, regional, or even federal facilities, we can provide top quality modular buildings for a variety of projects. The Aries’ advantage is especially evident when creating military facilities that have ever-changing needs. Whether it is a military trailer headquarters or soldier barracks, we can meet the specific codes and regulations they may require.

Administrative/Support
Operations
Medical/Lab

Data centers training
Education
Military barracks
Social services
Parks and recreation
Community centers

3. Education

Our team of experienced professionals work closely with school administrators to design both temporary classrooms as well as permanent fully-functional schools. For example, Aries worked in Windham, New Hampshire with a school that needed to address the problem of overcrowding. While the old school was being torn down and a new one built in its place, Aries provided 4 classrooms, an office space, and “gang” style bathrooms.

Additionally, we have our California-based office, Class Leasing LLC, that has been the preferred provider of DSA-approved relocatable classrooms for over 20 years.

4. Disaster Relief

After a natural disaster, time is one of the most precious resources; those affected need shelter as soon as possible. Aries has worked closely with local, state, and federal governments, as well as disaster response organizations like FEMA and the American Red Cross, to get relief to affected areas as quickly as possible. Whether providing modular housing, modular classrooms, or modular clinics, Aries can help organizations with everything from financing to logistics. We also highly encourage organizations to think about preparing for these potential disasters ahead of time, especially during hurricane season.

Aries also has strategic partnerships with government cooperative agencies that can help save the organizations significant amounts of money. If you purchase or lease through these co-ops, you receive prime access to our products and services at discounted rates.

5. Workforce Housing

Our full-service workforce housing focuses on quality, value, delivery, and service. These houses help fulfill the needs of oil field companies and other remote labor industries. With the oil industry booming, the demand for housing is exponentially increasing. Aries is working to fulfill these needs and provide top-quality accommodations to those in the oil and gas industry.

More classrooms. Expanded extracurricular facilities. The list goes on and on.

Along with the extra classrooms, there is also the need for extra office space that may include administrative offices, receptionists, nurses, counselors, custodians, and extra personnel.

Making these additions can be a long and costly process – particularly in the case of one Windham, NH school, who opted to demolish an existing wing of the campus and and create a new one, entirely from scratch.

THE PROBLEM

Obviously, while this major construction is going on, school needed to remain in session. Enter Aries Building Systems – while the existing school is demolished and rebuilt, faculty, staff and students can continue school activities in the turnkey modular campus provided by Aries Buildings Systems.

OUR SOLUTION

Aries worked with the school, designing and installing a building that covers 6500 square feet. This includes 4 classrooms, an office space and “gang” style bathrooms. As pictured, the building came complete with ramps for safety and accessibility. All needed utilities and HVAC units are also provided.

The building was installed with the full extent of our turnkey services, meaning school operations did not have to skip a beat. Thanks to Aries Building Systems, education will not be interrupted and students and faculty have a place they can call their own for 12 months while their main campus is renovated.
