Numerical Study of a Novel Self-lock Connection for Modular Tall Buildings
Compared with conventional onsite construction, modular construction provides significant benefits such as faster and safer manufacturing, better quality control, and less environmental impact due to allowing up to 95% of a building to be prefabricated in a controlled factory environment. These benefits can be maximised in high-rise buildings due to the increased number of repeated modules. However, most of the success stories of adopting modular construction are limited to low-rise buildings due to a lack of a joining technique which can ensure lateral resistance, structural integrity, overall stability, and robustness of the whole modular building. This paper presents a numerical study of a novel joining technique which not only enables easy and quick installation, but also provides adequate strength and stiffness for use in modular tall buildings. A detailed finite element (FE) model is developed in ABAQUS to simulate the complex behaviour and failure mode of the connector. It is also verified with available experimental results. A parametric study is then performed to examine the effects of a wide range of geometric and material parameters on the behaviour of the connector.
