A building apparatus, system, and method are disclosed in which a structural core, with a minimal footprint, provide the backbone for building units that are multiples of the size of the footprint of the structural core with minimal additional support. Such units may be combined repeatedly and in various orientations to create more complex systems. The design, configuration, and assembly process disclosed is for a composite structural system that achieves an occupiable space capture through the use of a small footprint 3-D structural box frame that is strong enough to provide the shear strength for multiples of the depth of the frame base from a foundation anchorage merely equal to the size of the structural box frame base. Thus, each structural box frame solves for its own structural performance, or a combination of structural box frames may combine to solve for the combined structural performance. This strategy reduces the structural footprint relative to total occupiable space capture and reduces the number of building parts required to achieve occupiable space capture, which accelerates and simplifies builds, and reduces the staging area demands of construction.

Proposed is a method for constructing a relocatable building by using modules, the method including a step a) of preparing a single module and installing a foundation block at a site, a step b) of forming a complex module having one room by assembling at least two single modules with each other on an assembly table near the site, a step c) of lifting the assembled complex module and installing the complex module on the foundation block, and a step d) of installing a roof module on an uppermost complex module and integrally reinforcing the foundation block, the complex module, and the roof module by using a reinforcing means.

A collapsible living compartment comprising a frame supporting and a floor which is connected to a sidewall formed from two or more panels, wherein at least one of panels includes a supporting member and a passage embedded within a space defined between two outer skins, and at least part of the space is filled with insulating material.

A connection assembly for modular construction includes an upper junction connector coupled to an upper end of a column. The upper junction connector includes an upper end that has a planar upper surface, a recessed surface, and at least one connector sidewall extending between the upper surface and the recessed surface. The recessed surface and the at least one connector sidewall define a contiguous recessed area in the upper end that extends to second, third, and fourth edges of the upper end of the connector. A slot extends through the upper end adjacent to an interior surface of a column sidewall. A transverse bore extends through the first column sidewall proximate to and aligned with the slot.

A Tubular Framing System and Method. The system and method enables users to create structures from tube stock, such as carbon fiber or other composites without the need for a specialized workspace or customized tooling. The system allows the user to create joints, attachment points and mounting points for tubular and sheet composite material. When assembled, the joints between tubular segments and the attached termination fittings provide unparalleled tensile strength without the need for adhesives or special testing for verification. The system includes base assemblies, mid-span bracket and mounting assemblies and a wide range of versatile connectors that can provide the user with the flexibility to easily and rapidly create a wide variety of structures from strong and lightweight composite tube stock and aircraft-grade aluminum connectors.

The present invention refers to a modular system for fast connection of habitable modules (2) based on coupling standardized shipping containers to adjusted receiving structures (3). This system is based on a connecting plate system (1), habitable modules (2), a receiving structure (3), an alveolar structure (7) to connect said receiving structure (3) and automatic systems for transport, lifting, docking and coupling. The present invention refers also to a method of fast connection of habitable modules (2) within this modular structure.

A building system that includes a modular panel with side members, at least one of the side members having an associated coupling for hooked connection with a corresponding shaped fixture of an adjacent structure, the coupling and fixture being adapted to be held together by a locking device that, when engaged, acts to lock the structure and the side member together and, when disengaged, allows for play between the panel and structure in order to free the panel from the structure.

A modular shelter, is provided having an assembly of at least one each of a modular wall panel, modular floor portion, and modular roof panel. The modular wall panel having a sill plate, top plate, plurality of vertical studs extending therebetween, and a skin with a first edge having a waveform profile for connecting to an adjacent modular panel; and one of the vertical studs being an end stud and having a first connector element configured to be secured to a first complementing connector element of an adjacent second modular panel; and further each modular roof panel has a peak crosspiece, bottom crosspiece, and plurality of rafters, with the first rafter having an engagement member to be engaged with a complementary engagement member of another modular roof panel, and further a second connector element configured to be secured to a second complementing connector element of a second modular roof panel.
