This is the main output of the Sustainable Modular Houses for People in Need, Project Number: 2021-1-EL01-KA220-VET-000025502. The “research–knowledge hub” (RKH) is an electronic library developed and created for containing detailed items of applied research in the field of timber construction design principles, circular economy, sustainable development and material availability in different regions of Europe.

RKH is an innovative tool for bibliographic search, an electronic library in all languages of the partners in which the project partners have uploaded complete methods of construction (assembly and disassembly), studies, reports, practical guides and case studies which are expected to assist on finding all the necessary resources under one umbrella. The purpose of the RKH is to be a valuable tool in the hands of both researchers but mostly for the professionals who are actually involved in the whole phase of delivering a modular unit for people in need (from design to construction).

APPLICATION OF MODULAR COORDINATION CONCEPT IN CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY

The modular coordination system is the process of organizing the dimensions which can be applied to the traditional as well as partially prefabricated or totally prefabricated or industrialized building. Modular coordination which comprises Interrelated Concept for building and construction process. This can be applied comprehensively or partly depending upon the particular circumstances. The modular system can be applied to determine the size of building components and assemblies, installation and service systems to the design of the building. This can be achieved by application of the internationally agreed 100mm Module. Modular Coordination provides the easy grasped layout of the positioning of the building components in relation to each other and to the building and facilitate collaboration between planners, manufactures, distributors and contractors.
