Problems solved by technology

However, since these shear walls used as supporting structures cannot be demolished or removed, this results in less flexibility in the interior design of the building
Furthermore, a modular construction involves only five wall modules (e.g. modules without a roof)
The use of five-wall modules in this modular construction reduces the ease and safety of on-site assembly as workers are not provided with a platform to work on top of these five-wall modules during final assembly on site
Furthermore, such five-wall modules cannot be fully completed internally off-site (for example, mechanical and electrical connections cannot be pre-installed since there is no ceiling for each five-wall module), resulting in longer assembly and decoration times on site

Embodiment Construction

[0078] It is an object of the present invention to provide an improved method of construction which contributes to increased productivity and safety while reducing construction time. Specifically, a PPVC module with six walls (i.e. floor, four walls and roof) is provided which advantageously provides protection for workers and decor from the weather elements and enables installation of a safety fence for on-site assembly / installation of PPVC modules Improve worker safety. Having a roof increases construction efficiency, as interior finishes can be done off-site to a greater extent, and provides a platform for light traffic during PPVC module assembly, while also allowing simple stacking of PPVC modules for ease of installation. Additionally, since each PPVC module is self-contained, six-sided PPVC modules minimize structural connection inspections and building maintenance. Concrete six-sided PPVC modules can also improve fire control in the event of a fire. Furthermore, sinc...

Abstract

Pre-fabricated pre-finished volumetric construction of a building. A method for constructing a pre-fabricated pre-finished volumetric construction (PPVC) module for a building is described. The methodcomprises: (i) casting of concrete to form a body of the PPVC module, where the body of the PPVC module comprises one or more load-bearing columns and beams, and six walls including a roof that covers a top of the PPVC module; and (ii) substantially finishing an interior of the PPVC module before the PPVC module is transported to a site for assembly into a building.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to methods of building construction. In particular, the invention relates to a method of prefabricated predecorated volume construction of buildings. Background technique [0002] Traditional construction methods for infrastructure involve the construction of major structural elements entirely or largely on site, often following a linear specific sequence in which appropriate steps need to be completed before the next step can begin. As such, the construction schedule and quality of infrastructure built using traditional construction methods are often easily affected by external factors such as weather conditions, available manpower, quality of workers, etc. [0003] An alternative method of construction, modular construction, is gaining a lot of popularity in recent years. Modular construction is the process by which structural elements (or modules) are prefabricated off-site before the completed or largely completed mo...
