The rapid completion of the Hermeus Office and Engine Testing Center, a modular structure (a structure built in pieces elsewhere and assembled on site) located in the United States, led an employee at another company to collect data on other facilities built using modular construction methods. The employee concluded that modular construction is more efficient than other construction methods.
Based on the text and the table, is the employee’s conclusion supported?
A
No, because the data in the table show that modular construction projects vary considerably in their number of construction days
B
No, because not enough information has been provided to allow a comparison of different construction methods’ efficiency
C
Yes, because the Constitutional Hill Coffee Shop was completed in only 23 days
D
Yes, because even the project with the longest construction time shown in the table was completed more quickly than it would have been if a different method had been used
