Frequently Asked Question
about Dolphin Prefabricated Construction

Questions About the Product

How are the pipes and wires in the wall prefabricated?

Pipes and wires are pre-buried inside the wall in advance, and the wires are quickly connected through aviation plugs, which improves the assembly efficiency at the project site.

Are the walls well treated for moisture resistance, insulation and soundproofing?

Inside the wall, there is an insulating cotton layer, a physical sound insulation layer, and a one-way waterproof and breathable membrane, which can effectively provide moisture-proofing, heat preservation, and sound insulation.

How are the floor modules prefabricated?

We recommend concrete foundations (pre-embedded bolts) at the project site. However, from the point of view of improving the efficiency of the project, we can provide prefabricated floor slab pre-fabricated modules. We use the steel structure + CLT method to provide high-performance prefabricated floor slab modules. All that is required at the project site is a good foundation for the footings.

How are the roof modules prefabricated?

The roofs are also prefabricated. All roofs are evenly divided into pieces of prefabricated roof modules. At the project site, all that is needed is a good lap joint between the roof and the wall and the roof module, and the house can be installed quickly.

Do the products have local certification for the project?
  • Australia: OML’s products are material-certified (ABS-certified) and meet the requirements of the Australian acceptance process.
  • CANADA: OML’s products have Canadian Material Certification and are in the process of applying for Canadian Modular Construction Certification.
  • USA: OML’s standard modules have U.S. certification pending.
  • EUROPE: OML’s products have material certifications for compliance with European Union standards.
What is the difference between a modular home and a kit home?

OML Modular Homes can accommodate a wide range of house types and we can work with our customers’ conceptual drawings to fulfill all their visions for their home. It can also significantly shorten the project cycle and reduce project costs.
Kit homes require on-site construction, which has a longer project cycle, requires more labor, and results in higher costs.

Can I install a modular home on my property?

You can build with OML Modular Homes as long as your property allows it. Please contact your local council to find out the restrictions that apply, the amount of land that can be covered, and the number of dwellings that can be installed.
