Abstract

The article discusses the currently developing technology for building economical and energy-saving modular houses. Based on the literature analysis of historical and new modular construction solutions, an attempt was made to classify modular houses and the advantages and disadvantages of individual construction systems were presented. The authors present modern modular house systems, pointing to innovative, ecological and energy-saving construction solutions that meet the criteria of sustainable construction.
