Identifying Trends and Typologies of Modular Constructions in Architecture

Often contemporary buildings undergo several modifications during their life cycle, usually targeting the retrofitting of their inner or outer shell or the reinforcing of the structural system. A modular construction strategy often forms the solution for a quick and standardized production or modification of architectural spaces. The paper departs from the ambiguity by clarifying terms and strategies in modular construction to further discuss the typologies of modular architecture, the historical and theoretical context in which they have evolved and their design and construction process. Finally, it conducts a critical analysis and classification coupled with a study of structures that are formed by the synthesis of modules that have the same shape and size, to identify current trends and extract conclusions about the impact of modularity in architecture.
