Modular-built Portable Classrooms and
Temporary Building Type Solutions

Ramtech is Your Portable Classroom and Modular School Building Solution

Carrol ISD Portable Classroom

In 1982 Ramtech pioneered the concept of modular-built portable classrooms and temporary modular buildings that are now used by hundreds of public, private, and faith-based schools throughout the Southwest. We've continued to lead the way in providing innovative portable classrooms and modular buildings that can be easily installed and relocated depending on your individual space needs and financial situation. If your requirements should call for a custom configuration or an entire modular campus, Ramtech can react quickly and cost-effectively to those too. However you need to accommodate your space needs, Ramtech provides you with modular classroom solutions and options that give you room to grow.

Purchase or Lease Portable Classrooms

Ramtech maintains an available inventory of state-approved portable double classroom buildings that are ready for immediate delivery for most areas in Texas. The same building designs are also available in the other states we service as custom buildings tailored to the local building requirements for those areas. These industry leading designs can be ordered with or without restrooms for purchase or through several short and long term leasing options. For eligible public, government, and private institutions, our portable classrooms may be procured through our approved vendor relationships with the these popular network cooperative purchasing programs:

  • Texas Association of School Board's BuyBoard
  • The Interlocal Purchasing System
  • Houston-Galveston Area Council HGACBuy

Each of these programs allow their members to buy and lease a broad range of Ramtech's products using a prequalified bid schedule, eliminating the need to go through the lengthy and expensive process that traditional bidding requires. If one of the Ramtech portable double classrooms is not large enough to meet your needs, Ramtech also has standard classroom wing designs from four to sixteen classrooms to meet your exact requirements.

West ISD Modular School Building Replacement Campus

In under two months Ramtech Building Systems was able to use modular construction to replace the entire middle and high school instructional and support facilities of West (TX) ISD. Both campuses were destroyed by the massive fertilizer plant explosion that occurred in April of 2014.

The temporary campus was comprised of 28 separate structures that included 17 new relocatable modular buildings which were designed, manufactured, and installed by Ramtech.

The 69,776 square foot modular construction project included three 10-classroom buildings, four computer and science labs, boys and girls locker rooms, an administrative office, cafeteria, large band hall, and a life skills building.

Adapting Spaces in Education: The Urgency Meets Innovation

Student population growth presents logistical challenges for educational institutions. Schools must accommodate an increasing number of students within existing infrastructures that may not have the capacity for expansion. Consequently, the search for immediate and efficient space solutions gains momentum.

The integration of new educational standards and programs further complicates the availability of space. Educational institutions now must find room for additional services, such as special education programs, computer labs, and learning hubs that these new curricular advancements demand. This strains already limited physical resources.

Portable classrooms emerge as a flexible building solution, adept at meeting the evolving landscape of educational requirements. Schools can deploy these structures quickly, avoiding disruptions common in traditional construction. Such adaptability not only serves the immediate need for space but also offers a long-term, sustainable answer to fluctuating school populations and changing educational initiatives.

Scalability: Growing with Your Student Population

As schools experience fluctuations in enrollment, the capacity to adapt and expand becomes a defining characteristic of successful education management. Portable classrooms offer a direct path to addressing these variations. By integrating these structures, schools effectively respond to increases in student numbers without the delays and high costs associated with traditional construction.

Consider a scenario where a school initially plans for a modest cohort but witnesses an unanticipated surge in enrollment. Traditional brick-and-mortar expansions will likely exceed budgetary allowances and time constraints. In contrast, portable classrooms can be installed within a much shorter timeframe. Schools can order additional units as needed, creating a scalable framework that aligns with student growth.

Providing details, portable classrooms function as modular units that schools can easily connect or arrange to create larger complexes. This modularity means an institution can start with a few classrooms and then incorporate more units, forming a larger interconnected learning environment.

  • When schools add portable classrooms, they expand their footprint swiftly, circumventing drawn-out construction projects.
  • Districts align their space requirements with a rising student population, ensuring that educational delivery remains uninterrupted.
  • Portable classrooms stand as a testament to a school's commitment to responsiveness and adaptability in ever-changing educational landscapes.

The adaptation process infers schools can acclimate not only to an increased student body but also to the evolving pedagogical techniques that may require different spatial arrangements. Portable classrooms provide the necessary agility, morphing with the school's developmental trajectory and pedagogic innovation.
