This paper investigates the robustness of a 6‐storey corner‐supported Modular Steel Building (MSB) under notional ground floor corner column removal (ie alternate path …
Abstract Modular integrated Construction (MiC) is a game changing construction approach which could significantly increase construction efficiency, quality, and sustainability. For …
Due to different integration strategies and stability requirements, the robustness analysis of multi-story modular buildings, made of volumetric units, requires collapse capacity analysis …

Corner-supported modular steel buildings (CMSBs) are mainly composed of repetitive room- sized modules and inter-module connections. However, there is a lack of relevant …
This paper investigates the progressive collapse behaviour of laterally braced steel modular buildings under various column removal scenarios. Unlike the conventional building with …

This paper investigates the modelling methods for composite steel-concrete modular buildings subject to progressive collapse using the alternate load path (ALP) method. A finite …
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 …
