Structural Design of Prefab and Modular Building Construction

Programme Structure

The program focuses on:

• Structural design of prefabricated and modular buildings: Learn key concepts relevant to the modularisation, structural design, and offsite manufacturing of building structures

• Transportation, lifting and handling of modular buildings: Assess best practice techniques and current guidelines to design prefab and modular units for various stages of their construction until final installation

• Building facade technology and structural design consideration:  Learn best practice approaches relevant to structural design and the performance requirements of facades, including prefabrication technologies for fully offsite manufactured facades

• Structural design workshop: Use the latest methods and technologies taught during the course to design prefabricated and modular buildings following a practical case study
