A building structure (1) comprises a supporting structure (2), a plurality of constructive units (3), configured to accommodate one or more users (20), at least a facility (4), which comprises a first functional portion (41) obtained inside the supporting structure (2); the supporting structure (2) comprises a plurality of seats (5), each seat (5) is configured to accommodate a respective constructive unit (3), each constructive unit (3) is independently insertable and removable from the respective seat (5), the facility (4) comprises at least a second functional portion (42) for each constructive unit (3) and placed in the constructive unit (3), the second functional portion (42) is configured to connect to the first functional portion (41) when the respective constructive unit (3) is inserted in the respective seat (5).

Presented herein is a transportable, distributed, edge-based, cloud-centered broadband command, control and communications infrastructure with built-in resilience that can be employed in data collection and integration, intelligence processing, mission planning, cognitive decision support and operational command, control and communications system. Specifically, a Modular Mission Systems (MIMS), composed of Modular Load Units (MLU), and tactical communications gateways integrated onto air platforms of opportunity in podded configurations (PODS) that can bring cloud-based, broadband communications and processing architectures to the tactical edge.

Disclosed herewith a modular integrated building and a construction method thereof. The building comprises multiple prefabricated room units (1). A bottom of a load-bearing structure of the prefabricated room unit (1) is provided with a semi-prefabricated connecting port (2). Reinforcing bars arranged at a top of the prefabricated room unit (1) of a next floor are inserted in the connecting port (2) and thus connected with reinforcing bars arranged therein, so that the prefabricated room units (1) of two adjacent floors are connected with each other through in-situ casting concrete in the connecting port (2). A cast-in-situ concrete interlayer (3) is arranged on a top plate (11) of the prefabricated room unit (1) of a next floor, for connecting adjacent prefabricated room units (1) of a same floor together.

A storage system is disclosed where goods can be stored in containers and the containers are stored in stacks. Above the stacks runs a grid network of rails (e.g., tracks) on which load handling devices can run. To take containers from the stacks and deposit then at alternative locations in the stacks or deposit then at stations where goods may be picked. The framework may be provided with one or more of the following exemplary services: power, power control, heating, lighting, cooling, sensors, and data logging devices. The provision of these services within the framework rather than across the system as a whole, can allow for flexibility in storage whilst reducing cost and inefficiency.

A multi-story building (200) is described for manufactured homes (212) such as container homes. The building (200) includes a ground floor (202), a number of intermediate floors (204), and a top floor (206). The building (200) includes a throughway (208) on the ground floor (202) that allows passage of a transportation vehicle (210) such as a flatbed truck carrying a manufactured home (212). The transportation vehicle (210) can use the throughway (208) to position the manufactured home (212) in alignment with a hoistway (214). A hoist mounted on the roof (216) can then be used to hoist the home (212) to a desired floor (204 or 206).

A structure has spaces that can accommodate at least two International Organization for Standardization compliant shipping containers. The structure has studs, joists, and rafters connected together above, besides, between, and in front of the spaces for the shipping containers. The structure provides for an attractive outdoor retail space with shading, allowing for signage, decorations, product display, ergonomics, and other retail design features. In an implementation, the structure is for a mobile retail space that is tailored for customizing and manufacture of the customized apparel, especially the laser finishing of products like jeans. The mobile retail space can be relocated to and deployed easily at various events, such as sports events and music festival venues.

The present invention is a method for accessing a model of a building; selecting a foundation; isolating a plurality of wall panels, wherein the wall panels are comprised of a set of members; selecting a group of the set of members which interface with the foundation, wherein the interface is identified as a connection between a wall member and the foundation; detecting an interface type between the foundation and the wall member, wherein each interface has a predetermined set of requirements; calculating a set of actual values associated with the interface type; comparing the set of actual values with a set of required values and determining the delta of the actual values and the required values; and identifying each interface where the delta is outside a predetermined range.

A module for a structural system may include chords oriented along a length of the module and a plurality of rib assemblies positioned between the chords. Two of the rib assemblies may include shear keys configured to be received in piers at a final installation site. A method of making a structure may include positioning the shear keys in pockets of the piers.
