Modular building construction relies on prefabricated modules which are assembled onsite to form complete buildings. The assembly requires modules to be connected at discrete locations and results in the formation of discontinuous diaphragms. Generally, prefab can be categorized into components, panels (2D), modules (3D), hybrids, and unitized whole buildings. On average, greenhouse gas emissions from conventional construction were higher than for modular construction, not discounting some individual discrepancies. The work undertaken is an attempt to understand the fundamentals of prefab modular building, its design & behavior under seismic loading. As no specific guidelines are available for the design of building with modular buildings in Indian code IS 1893-2016 (Part I). Two types of modular structures are compared one with bracings and another with shear walls in G+20 buildings.
