Abstract

The present application relates to a volumetric module constructed from a module chassis, an exterior wall attached to at least a portion of the module chassis, a floor assembly attached to at least a portion of the module chassis, and a façade adjustably attached to at least a portion of the module chassis. The volumetric module may be configured to interface with a separate accommodation module.

Claims (20)

1. A volumetric module comprising:

a module chassis;

an exterior wall attached to at least a portion of said module chassis;

a floor assembly attached to at least a portion of said module chassis;

a bracket assembly attached to the chassis directly adjacent to the floor assembly; and

a façade adjustably attached to the module chassis by the bracket assembly, wherein said volumetric module is configured to interface with a second volumetric module including a second module chassis,

wherein the bracket assembly comprises a first bracket attached to the façade and a second bracket attached to the module chassis,

wherein the module chassis comprises a plurality of horizontal structural members and a plurality of vertical structural members attached to one or more of the plurality of horizontal structural members, and

wherein the second bracket is attached to the module chassis in parallel with the floor assembly and directly above a first face of a horizontal structural member of the plurality of horizontal structural members and the first bracket is configured to have translational motion perpendicular to the floor assembly and directly in front of a second face of the horizontal structural member.

2. The volumetric module of claim 1 , wherein said bracket assembly is configured to have translational motion along multiple planes in a three-dimensional space.

3. The volumetric module of claim 1 , wherein at least three exterior walls are attached to said module chassis.

4. The volumetric module of claim 1 , wherein a maximum of three exterior walls are attached to said module chassis,

wherein said maximum of three exterior walls are configured such that at least one side of said module chassis remains unobstructed by said maximum of three exterior walls, and

wherein said module chassis has an open top portion such that the top portion of said module chassis remains unobstructed.

5. The volumetric module of claim 1 , further comprising an interior wall attached to said module chassis.

6. The volumetric module of claim 5 , wherein said interior wall forms a doorway.

7. The volumetric module of claim 1 , wherein at least one of said exterior wall or said floor assembly comprise a protective material.

8. The volumetric module of claim 7 , wherein said protective material is at least one of a fire resistant material and a water proof material.

9. The volumetric module of claim 1 , wherein said floor assembly comprises at least one of a joint protective material, a panelized material, a corrugated metal floor deck, and a fiberglass.

10. The volumetric module of claim 1 , wherein the façade is a wall.
