Research On The Application Of Modular Strategy In Optimized Architectural Design

Modular theory has been deeply affecting the key issues of the building design and construction since its birth. The development of the present society has brought to human not only the unprecedented purchasing power, but also the inestimable resource consumption and environmental degradation, making energy, environment, and land slowly become the major obstacles in the further development of the construction sector. In the future, in any field, standard, system, technology, and concepts will gradually begin to change, so as in the field of building design. Improving the level of the architectural design and effectively docking industrialization architecture and green architecture are the main direction and inevitable trend of future architectural design field. This paper takes modularization theory as the development trend of the future architectural design, excavate the effective technical strategy, and positively explore the influence of the modular design concept on building design.This paper mainly covers the following several parts:The first part mainly includes the review of the theoretical system of modular design strategy. The dependency relationship between modular theory and architecture design from a macroscopic view, the influence of modular theory on the development of architecture design in the urbanization process, the concept and application status of modular theory, the significance that the modular design has in architectural design and construction, and resolving social contradictions are illustrated, thus putting forward the research framework to theoretically guide the further design of research.The second part is mainly about the application process of modular strategy in the optimization of architectural design. There is an extensional analysis on how the modular theory is applied systematically in the architectural design concerning two aspects:first, through the analysis of the classic case in industrialized areas such as manufacturing, aviation, and transportation to effectively define the characteristics of the three typical strategies----integrated modular design, series type modular design, and typical cases modular design, thus establishing an evaluation system of modular design which laid an solid foundation for modular theory in construction design field; then, architecture design modularization can be devised into two research directions: the design applications of macroscopic level and microcosmic field, and the two design directions are served as breakthrough to predictably put forward the trend of future modular architecture. Relevant computer softwares are used to complete some of the special space-aided design process.The third part is mainly about the optimization design of modular strategy in the three different types of architecture which are classics and are most likely to be the agents of the application of modular strategy:residential type, complicated type, and container type.The sustainable research of modular strategy in the design of residential type is achieved through the illustration of the effects that modularized residential type has in industrialized housing area. Many designs of modularized housing type are analyzed concerning the advantages it has on industrialized architectures:convenient and economy; and some current international and domestic modular design practice cases, such as one hundred residence construction idea and IFD housing system theory, are studied. The conclusion can be drawn from the above analysis that the idea of people first is the key of modular design, no matter it is viewed from space environment, psychological factors or behavior, human engineering can be the theory basis as a function of the space module derivative research, which can provide scientific and reasonable judgment basis to all sorts of function module in household design. At the same time, this paper takes a design competition for small and medium-sized household for example, and the competition is organized by Construction Department of Hunan Province in2008. Through survey and data analysis, a demand list of all sorts of function module is made. And after analyzing the effective function space module by AHP, we got three kinds of effective and reasonable family model, and then did experimental analysis of air environment and light environment to them to check whether they are reasonable.As to the research of modular design’s answers to complicated space design, first, the design idea of construction scheme design and open design principle in the traditional design strategy is found out; Then, a primary design research is conducted concerning modularization in complicated space positioning, focusing on the following three aspects:the function space module orientation, hub space module orientation, and auxiliary space module positioning。At last, this paper illustrate the cognitive design of modularization in complicated spaces through three research directions:cognitive fraction design, inclusive type cognitive design, and serialization cognitive design. In this part, the case of office building of Chang Feng Power LTD. is taken as the modular design practice. By studying the project background, the positioning of relationship of function space module size and the classification of the function space module corresponding on the modular design system are determined, and at the same time, by establishing relevant analysis model of fuzzy comprehensive evaluation to do the derivative research of function module of the space, a better function space allocation of each floor and an ecological analysis of the internal function module of the office building of Chang Feng Power LTD. are determined.When comes to the research of module architecture design for container space, this paper first analyzes the container types and characteristics as well as the present application development trends of the container architecture by systemically introducing the development and forming of domestic and international container architecture. Then, through the studying and summarizing of the circular strategy of container architectural design, the basic principles of the modular design of container architecture, and container module’s optimization practice, a scientific basis for the research of container modular building construction system are structured. And after combining some ideas from the affordable housing design competition organized by the Construction Department of Hunan Province, the design idea of the youth apartment container building is put forward. The modular design is achieved with references to the Marseille apartments, and computer assembly language is adopted to set a variety of combinations to place in RHINO software to address the complexity in surface design and the deduction and evaluation in industrialized construction. Besides, computer virtual technology is introduced to verify indicators so as to provide experimental analysis supplements on wind environment experiment on the youth apartment container building.And finally, this paper summarizes the application research results of modularization design strategy in the optimization architecture design based on the theoretical study and practical exploration, and discovers the the advantages of modular strategy. And then a systematical, rule-governed, and theoretical-based design research is carried out to abstract and put forward a scientific-based auxiliary strategy of scientific design and experimental data and to provide some beneficial reference to the industrialization construction, space optimization, and industrial circular design.
