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).

"MODULAR COORDINATION"

These notes on Modular Coordination in the Buildable Design Appraisal System are produced as part of BCA's Buildability Series. Its objective is to introduce designers to the concept of modular coordination and its benefits. At the same time, it gives some practical advice on the application of modular coordination using actual projects as examples. The recommended modules in these notes take into consideration the need for flexibility in design and the sub-module has been introduced for this purpose. As modular coordination becomes more widely practised in the local industry, these notes may be revised and the recommendations will be reviewed to achieve a higher level of modular coordination that will benefit the building industry.
