An Overview of the Upcoming ASCE Report on Design of Modular Structures for Industrial Facilities
Publication: Structures Congress 2022
ABSTRACT
The state-of-the-practice engineering report on Design of Modular Structures for Industrial Facilities soon to be issued by the ASCE Energy Division’s Task Committee on Onshore Modularization for Heavy Industrial Applications will provide guiding principles that help practicing engineers design modules in petrochemical and other industrial facilities. Topics related to design and engineering of onshore modules that are addressed in this report include overview of onshore module types, philosophy, modularization study, detailed engineering, transportation and logistics, construction, and case histories. The report will also provide references to and highlights from building codes, industry standards, and common professional practices for onshore heavy industrial modularization.
