Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2018146202A1] The invention relates to a reusable modular building (1) and a method for erecting the same. The reusable modular building comprises a self-supporting steel skeleton (2) comprising releasably coupled elongated steel profiles (4) for rectangular steel floor and roof frames that are releasably interconnected by steel supporting pillars (7). Each elongated steel profile is provided with at least two tubular steel receiving members (8) that are arranged at its opposite ends. Each steel supporting pillar is provided at its ends with at least one elongated steel protrusion (9). Each of said tubular steel receiving members and each of said elongated steel protrusions are configured to establish a releasable tight-fitting coupling upon insertion of said elongated steel protrusion into said tubular steel receiving member. Due to its simple and robust construction, the modular building according to the invention can more easily and quickly be built and can be reused many times.
