MODULAR CONSTRUCTION AND THE POSSIBILITY OF USING MODULAR STRUCTURES FOR BUILDING EXTENSIONS
Abstract
The article is based on the analysis of a number of foreign and domestic scientific publications on the researched topic. The possibility of using modular structures, especially volumetric module-blocks, for building extensions during reconstruction is considered. It is noted that the use of transformable volumetric module-blocks significantly reduces transportation costs. Despite a number of disadvantages inherent in buildings made of modular blocks, the use of volumetric module-blocks is proposed as one of the promising options for energy-efficient reconstruction.
Keywords
