The different materials used in modular design include:
1. Steel: Modular buildings are often made using steel frames which provide a strong and durable structure.
2. Wood: Wood is a popular choice for modular construction due to its eco-friendliness, cost-effectiveness, and versatility.
3. Concrete: Concrete is used in modular design for its strength, durability, and fire resistance.
4. Glass: Modular buildings can also incorporate glass panels for both aesthetic and practical purposes, such as natural lighting and energy efficiency.
5. Plastics: Some modular designs require the use of plastic materials for their flexibility, strength, and resistance to environmental factors.
6. Brick: Modular buildings can be constructed out of bricks, which provide a highly durable and fire-resistant building material.
7. Aluminum: Aluminum is used in modular design for its durability, lightweight, and resistance to corrosion.
8. Fiberglass: Fiberglass is often used in modular buildings for its insulation properties, flexibility, and strength.
9. PVC: PVC is a common material used in modular design for its water-resistant properties, durability, and low cost.
