ABSTRACT

The domain of container architecture is also expanding. The basic unit of buildings, which used to be a standard container has turned into specially designed modular blocks. This new type of modular frames shares similar superiorities with the original container architecture. With all the modular blocks prefabricated in factories, little work needs to be done on site, which improves the construction efficiency a lot. Also, those highly industrialized blocks make it possible to retain the movability and provisionality of the architecture.
