Modular construction can dramatically improve efficiency in
construction, through factory production of pre-engineered building
units and their delivery to the site either as entire buildings or
as substantial elements. The required technology and application
are developing rapidly, but design is still in its infancy. Good
design requires a knowledge of modular production, installation and
interface issues and also an understanding of the economics and
client-related benefits which influence design decisions. Looking
at eight recent projects, along with background information, this
guide gives you coverage of: generic types of module and their
application vertical loading, stability and robustness dimensional
and spacial planning hybrid construction cladding, services and
building physics fire safety and thermal and acoustic performance
logistical aspects - such as transport, tolerances and safe
installation. A valuable guide for professionals and a thorough
introduction for advanced students.
