A wooden module may include four cross-sectionally square longitudinal pieces of timber, at least six cross-sectionally square transverse pieces of timber, and at least two cross-sectionally square plugs, which may be connected to one another via a plurality of connection plugs. The four longitudinal pieces of timber may be arranged parallel to and spaced apart from one another such that the four longitudinal pieces of timber span a square. The at least six transverse pieces of timber may be arranged over a length of the four longitudinal pieces of timber and may be arranged between the four longitudinal pieces of timber. The at least two plugs may be arranged vertically parallel to one another and to at least four vertical transverse pieces of timber on at least two horizontal transverse pieces of timber and may project from a lateral face of the wooden module.

A kit of modules of a framework, each module comprises struts connected among each other, each strut comprising a first and a second side, the modules being connected by a set of fixing elements and comprise each at least two gussets placed on two adjacent struts, each strut being provided with at least a first and a second perforation, said gussets being provided with a third perforation and extend in parallel to the second side of the struts, the third perforation being oriented along a direction which crosses the second side, a first respectively a second fixing element of said set being housed in the first respectively the second perforations of two modules when they are assembled side by side with their first sides of the struts of each of the two modules, which fixing elements are provided for enabling to establish a connection between the two adjacent modules while they are connected to each other.

A structure has a plurality of modules of cementitious material; a first module exhibiting a reciprocal coupling surface and hooking portions defining at least one cavity, a second module exhibiting a respective reciprocal coupling surface—countershaped and in contact with the reciprocal coupling surface of the first module—and a hooking portion defining at least one cavity extending along at least partially the stratification direction; a connecting element engaged, on one side, inside the cavity of the hooking portion of the first module and, on the other side, inside the cavity of the hooking portion of the second module. The connecting element is configured for stably constraining the first and second modules and holding these latter in contact with each other. Further, a process makes a structure of reinforced cementitious material.

A modular floor platform includes a floor made of a plurality of individual composite floor panels interconnected by tongue and groove joints. The individual composite floor panels have a foam core and a rigid cover over the foam core. A frame attaches the floor panels together along a perimeter of the floor. Legs beneath the frame and upwardly support the floor.

A new civil infrastructure construction scheme is provided that is capable of meeting various objectives, including reducing climate change, addressing labor shortage issues, and enhancing construction productivity. Methods of forming load-bearing structures include placing a first reusable load-bearing element adjacent to a second reusable load-bearing element. The first reusable load-bearing element is fixed with respect to the second reusable load-bearing element without any adhesive or mortar. The first reusable load-bearing element and the second reusable load-bearing element respectively have a compressive strength of greater than or equal to about 25 MPa. The first and second reusable load-bearing elements optionally may be formed by additive manufacturing with a printable cementitious composition, such as an engineered cementitious composite.

Modular building methods and systems using lightweight modular panels, and specially configured transition panels for transitioning from wall to floor, or from wall to roof. Identically configured standard panels are used for constructing the walls, floor, and roof, with transitions from one structure to the next (e.g., wall to floor, or wall to roof). Each of the variously configured panel types includes channels (e.g., 2 pair of channels) formed through the length of the foam body, where the channels are configured to receive splines (e.g., flanges of an I-beam) therein. In the standard panel, the channels may include pairs of top and bottom channels, with the channels offset towards the respective panel major faces. In the transition panels, the channels may be similarly configured, but positioned differently to make the appropriate transition. The splines are connected to a frame, which acts as a template and transfers loads to a foundation.

A double-shelled load-bearing structure module of any geometric shape, is formed from top and bottom secondary shell elements. A double-shelled load-bearing structure in the form of a primary shell structure is joined with the module, made of individual assembled load-bearing structure modules of this kind having statically necessary filling rods. The secondary shell elements have, in each corner, a connection pocket, which is open at the top or bottom or is open at the top and bottom, of appropriate size for connecting a plurality of load-bearing structure modules. The connection pocket, at least on the outside, on the outer vertical surfaces of the secondary shell elements, is delimited by preferably metal profiles or metal sheet. Connection tabs can also be disposed in each corner instead of connection pockets. The connection tabs are formed from angular surfaces, preferably metal sheet, protruding towards the intermediate space between the secondary shell elements.
