Problems solved by technology

Despite the fact that buildings of various sizes can be established in short time by connecting a number of containers, it is typically experienced that buildings made from containers are less attractive seen from an architectural point of view.
The standardised and uniform sizing of the containers limits the fre

Embodiment Construction

[0005] It is an object of the present invention to provide an improved method for transporting building components to a construction site and for erecting a building. Accordingly, the invention, in a first aspect, provides a method for erecting a building on a construction site, wherein the building is made from building components comprising components which are pre-fitted for the building, and wherein at least a first part of the components are transported to the construction site in a container which is at least partly made from a second part of the components. The second part of the components comprising components which are pre-fitted for the building and which can be joined and separated, preferably reversibly.

[0006] Since the container is made from pre-fitted building components which can be joined and separated, it is possible to transport building components to a construction site in a container which, at the construction site, can be disassembled into single pre-fitted co...

Abstract

The invention provides a method for erecting a building on a construction site. The building is made from components which are pre-fitted for the building and for a container for transporting the components to a construction site. The pre-fitted components can be joined and refitted to allow reuse of the components. The invention further provides a set of components which are pre-fitted to allow construction of a container of one shape and a building of a different shape. The invention further provides a configuration system for configuring a set of components for a building or a container, a container made from such components, and a building made from such components.

Description

INTRODUCTION [0001] The present invention relates to a method and components for moving, configuring and erecting a modular building. The invention further relates to a building and a container for moving components for the building to a construction site. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] In general, movable and configurable construction units for buildings exist. As an example, construction workers are often housed in modular systems comprising numbers of containers stacked to form temporary apartments. Such systems offer a certain degree of freedom with respect to the size of a construction and to a certain extent also to the shape of the construction. As an example, the number of interconnected containers may be varied and the containers may be connected sideways in rows, upwardly in piles or a larger number of containers may be joined both sideways and upwardly to form larger buildings. Furthermore, some of the existing containers may have walls which can be shifted sideways t...
