Abstract:
It is important for an architect to understand the limiting factors that will affect the design of a modular building. The implementation of modular construction as a means of improving production efficiency and worker safety in the construction industry raises into question the design quality of modular buildings, and whether or not the merits of the building process can also be captured from the perspective of the architect. For this reason, the constraints and barriers to design innovation in modular construction are recorded through the lens of an architect. This study uses interviews w

Abstract:
Industrialization and the use of timber have been put forward by means of its potential for increased efficiency in housing construction. Industrialized housing is related to learning from manufacturing, but the construction culture still has to be considered when development is discussed. There is room for further improvements in industrialized housing, especially related to culture. Most scientific work on industrialized housing is based on learning from the lean concept, which also has been argued to act as a catalyst for cultural change.

The American way of life is becoming increasingly transient in nature. But at the same time there is also the inherent need to have a sense of rootedness, the need for a place to call home, to belong. The current thesis is an architectural exploration of creating a dialogue between this duality. The approach is to explore a composite system, where modular prefabricated architecture is implemented in conjunction with traditional building practices. The idea is to address the transient nature and sense of belonging by combining the prefabricated modular approach with the site-built traditional a

The concept of “prefabrication” has been increasingly applied in the civil construction industry. While satisfying the requirements for the rapid development of advanced modular constructions, prefabrication may not be an appropriate choice in earthquake regions due to its poor seismic performance. On the other hand, as one of the most favoured options in seismic design, steel structures also face many challenges. Most of the steel frames used in strong seismic areas have field-welded moment-resisting connections. This is despite the fact that on-field welding of beam-column connections lacks

Since then, a number of timber housing companies have established product strategies and developed system solutions to meet the demands from different markets.
