Designing A Modular Building: A Case Study For Modular Vs.Conventional Design For An Apartment Building, Christine Piper, Arun Thodupunoori
The Professional Constructor
To alleviate the diminishing number of tradespeople in the US construction industry, modular construction is an alternative construction process that could be used for repetitive construction applications. However, there are some misconceptions about modular construction including: limited architectural design options, design restrictions, lower quality, unaffordable and inability to design for sustainability. Modular construction is a process that streamlines the construction process and saves a significant amount of time while delivering a high quality building. In response to the misconception of design options, this case study presents the design considerations for transforming an apartment building that was designed and constructed using …

With the continuous demand for construction of new buildings, an easier, more sustainable, energy-efficient and environmentally friendly building method is necessary to save time, energy and cost. Hence, there has been an increasing need for a system such as BROAD sustainable building (BSB). A form of prefabricated building by BROAD Sustainable Building Co., LTD (BSB). It consists of flooring and ceiling, embedded shafts of ventilation, water supply & drainage, electricity and lighting. Other items include pillars, diagonal bracings, doors, windows, walls and sanitary wares, air conditioning, air quality products, lifts, building thermal insulations.
