A Component-Based Model for Novel Modular Connections with Inbuild Component

A modular steel structure building has obvious advantages in reducing construction period and protecting the environment due to its unique construction method, so it is widely used in modern construction. However, the modular building connection design and modeling are mostly based on the traditiona...
