The concrete module is the structural element containing the complete interior equipment and exterior finishes. Grouping modules together horizontally and vertically enables building construction taking advantage of its resistance capacity as a structural and global unit. For this unit to be achieved, the connection system has been developed in terms of structural resilience, so its seismic, acoustic and geologic properties provide an excellent behavior of the building. It is possible to apply the advantages of connections design and speed of assembly conversely to get relocatable buildings in all cases (it is an intrinsic property of the system). In cases of temporary building, recoverable foundation could also be considered.
Applied as sustainable solution
Edificio de 45 viviendas sociales industrializadas Like many of Europe's major cities, Barcelona is in the grip of a housing crisis. As in many places, the delivery of social housing is slow, expensive and rarely meets meaningful sustainability targets.
