Компания ABG передала пять сейсмоустойчивых модульных классов школе в Генерал-Сантосе

ABG Modular Development Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Asiabest Group International Inc. (ABG), formally handed over five prefabricated classrooms to the Department of Education (DepEd), providing safe classrooms for a public school in General Santos City. ABG Modular supplied one single-story building containing five classrooms to Romana C. Acharon Central Elementary School. The classrooms were delivered under DepEd’s Basic Education Facilities Program, which aims to provide students and teachers with a safe learning environment, following the magnitude 7.8 earthquake that struck near Sarangani in June. At Romana C. Acharon Central ES, the earthquake damaged several classrooms and disrupted classes for approximately 4,460 learners. The school was compelled to implement blended learning and shifting schedules while damaged buildings underwent structural assessment. The five-classroom building supplied by ABG Modular was manufactured at the Palanas Precast Plant in Leyte through its ongoing partnership with Concrete Stone Corp. The classrooms were delivered with school furniture and can accommodate up to 45 learners each, allowing the school to restore part of its classroom capacity without waiting for conventional construction to be completed. Highlighting the strength of prefabricated concrete modular systems (PCMS), the classrooms are designed to withstand a magnitude 8.0 earthquake and winds of up to 340 kph. With the country facing a backlog of more than 166,000 classrooms, ABG Modular believes that PCMS can complement conventional school construction.
