This month we present a report relating to the design of a low-rise modular building and the requirement, or otherwise, for positive fixings between the superstructure and the substructure.
Drawing on their project experience, Alice Berry, Sahil Limbu and Heleni Pantelidou share tips on how to ensure that modern methods of construction deliver carbon savings.
James Morton and Gavin White discuss findings from a comparative analysis of MMC and 'typical' construction practices, specifically focusing on the impact on the upfront embodied carbon for the structural systems of MMC.
