Due to different integration strategies and stability requirements, the robustness analysis of multi-story modular buildings, made of volumetric units, requires collapse capacity analysis …
In modular buildings made of volumetric units, robust structural action may be established by considering various scenarios for localisation of damage, corresponding to loss of supports …
This paper investigates the progressive collapse behaviour of laterally braced steel modular buildings under various column removal scenarios. Unlike the conventional building with …
Compared with conventional buildings, the design of interconnections in multistory modular buildings requires special attention, due to different load distribution mechanisms, level of …
Steel modular building structures are being increasingly adopted for a variety of building applications since their method of construction, despite being relatively new, offers many …

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 …
The limited knowledge of the behaviour of modular buildings subjected to different loading scenarios and thereby lack of design guidelines hinder the growth of modular construction …

Progressive collapse is an important failure mechanism that must be considered in the design of critical and essential buildings. For steel moment structures, beam-column joints …
Steel modular constructions involve the manufacture of fully equipped three-dimensional prefabricated modules in factory-controlled settings which are then transported to …
