Nonlinear Dynamic Analysis of Modular Steel Buildings in Two and Three Dimensions

Modular construction is a relatively new technique where prefabricated units are assembled on-site to produce a complete building. Due to detailing requirements for the assembly of the modules, these systems are prone to undesirable failure mechanisms during large earthquakes. Specifically, for mult...
