Rapid urbanization and population growth worldwide has stimulated the requirement of fast
and efficient construction techniques. An emerging trend in the construction industry focuses …

Corner-supported steel modular buildings were constructed using volumetric modules with
the inter-module connections at their corners and similar connections to foundations. The …

This study proposes a column-column connection with self-tapping bolts, a core tube, flange
plates, and high-strength bolts for a prefabricated steel structure, which can avoid on-site …

Contrary to conventional buildings, the structural robustness of modular high-rise buildings
has not been studied due to the lack of the numerical and experimental studies and design …

Inter-module connections (IMCs) are the key component which transforms individual
building modules into complete modular buildings. Structural design of these connections is …

Recently, modular building construction has gained massive momentum as it continues to
help many cities around the globe to tackle the ongoing housing crisis and the pressing …

Modular steel construction (MSC) exhibits widespread potential applications in civil
engineering due to its quickness and standardization. Inter-module connection is a crucial …

It is well established that building construction using volumetric modules has numerous
advantages over traditional construction; however, achieving simple, yet high-performance …

Modular steel constructions (MSCs) are assembled on-site using modular units (modules)
which are prefabricated in the factory. Their use offers advantages, such as superior quality …

The module-to-module bolted connection is an effective way of meeting the need for rapid
assembly of modular buildings. This paper presents a discussion of five full-scale tests …
