Define Modules and modular co-ordination

1 Answer

Answer :

Modules:

Modules are a standard unit of size used to coordinate the dimensions of buildings and components. They are of two types:

1. Multi modules

2. Basic modules

 Modular Co-ordination:

The modular coordination is defined as the basic module is in adopted the size of which is selected for general application to building and its components. The value of the basic module chosen is 100 mm for maximum flexibility and convenience.

The symbol used for basic module is M

1M = 100mm

100 mm = 1M = It is international standard value.
