WorksheetsMCQ 2: IBS & modular construction
Total questions: 10
Worksheet time: 5mins
Which of the following is considered a 3D modular unit?
Precast wall panel
Bathroom pod
Steel beam
Timber slab
Why is modular construction considered highly efficient?
Because modules are built only on site
Because most of the work is done in the factory
Because it requires more labour
Because it reduces prefabrication
Which of the following is a disadvantage of IBS?
Requires some on-site assembly
Reduces construction time
Ensures consistent quality
Minimises waste
In modular construction, what is usually done at the site?
Building modules from scratch
Only lifting, placing, and connecting modules
Manufacturing walls and floors
Installing all finishes manually
Which is true about quality in modular construction?
Quality is inconsistent because modules are built on site
Quality is high due to factory-controlled conditions
Quality depends entirely on-site labour
Quality cannot be monitored
What limits modular construction from being fully flexible in design?
Labour availability
Module size, transport, and factory standards
Site preparation time
Type of materials
Which of the following reduces construction waste the most?
Conventional on-site construction
Modular construction
Low-prefabrication IBS
Manual brickwork
Why is modular construction suitable for fast-track projects?
Modules are built on site slowly
Factory production and on-site works can occur simultaneously
It requires no planning
It needs more on-site labour than IBS
Which IBS component is most suitable for complex, curved architectural designs?
Precast wall panels
Standard 3D modules
Bathroom pods
Volumetric hotel rooms
Which of the following statements is true?
IBS always uses 3D volumetric modules
Modular construction requires more on-site labour than IBS
IBS can include both 2D and 3D prefabricated components
Modular construction allows unlimited architectural freedom
