A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
A building module that can accommodate wiring, plumbing, insolation, stairs, and any other device or material desired in construction of structures involving intermodal containers. Embodiments of the building module contain spaces and joist structure, which can provide support for one or more intermodal containers. The joist structure can include several perpendicular beams in a grid formation. These beams can have openings for the purpose of lightening the structure, saving on materials, and allowing space for utility materials such as wiring, plumbing, and other implements used in the walls, floors, and ceilings of structure construction. Building module embodiments can also be used as a header to stabilize walls for the addition of doorways and windows.
