Innovative Construction of Student Residences : Frameup Project ; Innovativa byggnader for studentboende : Frameup Project
In the majority of university cities in Sweden, a strong demand for student accommodations has initiated various development and research projects focusing on costs reduction and fast execution. The present thesis brings up a solution based on the development of a feasible assembly concept and process, for a Modular Building erection, where prefabricated 3D Modules are assembled into a sway steel frame. The concept has been initiated within FRAMEUP project: Optimization of Frames for Effective Assembling (RFCS contract RFS-PR-10121). One of the main project objectives was to investigate and develop a competitive structural system suitable for fast in-situ execution and dismounting. Thus, in order to streamline the construction process, the use of optimized prefabricated frames and room 3D modules has become a very attractive alternative. The building is designed considering a six-story building, as it has been seen as the suitable choice of industrial partners in the project on market demands for the optimal payoff time. The use of Intensive Use of Steel together with Modular Construction enhances the conditions for industrialization of the construction process towards the cost reduction.The development of the whole concept is described and followed up by a 4D construction sequence. The concept is based on the original structural system for which calculations, drawings and feasibility test at full scale are made to prove the credibility of the system. The 3D Modules are designed by Norrbotten based SME, which has influenced the global concept design. In addition, development of a novel joint, by means of laboratory tests and finite element models, is shown in the thesis. It is believed that its use in the frame, for the column splice connection, may be advantageous for the execution process. The issue of execution tolerances has been addressed by advanced FEA, which has been validated by experiments. ; I majoriteten av svenska universitetsstäder har stark efterfrågan på studentbostäder initierat flera ...
