Abstract

With the demand for carbon neutrality, adopting a high assembly rate in modular buildings has become the development trend in China’s civil buildings. This paper analyzes non-modular design examples in civil steel structure buildings, summarizing the principles of modular decomposition and temporary support system design. The wheel-buckle scaffold system, independent support system, and foldable steel structure support system were selected for finite element simulation. The simulation results indicate that an independent support system should be chosen for high load-bearing capacity and rigidity requirements scenarios. A lifting analysis is also conducted for a decomposed module in the case study. Combining modular decomposition, temporary support systems, and lifting point selection methods, an application framework is further proposed. This framework will contribute to achieving modular construction in non-modular design civil steel structure buildings and promote the development of prefabricated construction.
