Abstract
A modular building at a job site comprises one or more volumes templates, each comprising two or more core locations and a corridor all bounded within a volume footprint. A core for each core location is selected from a core catalog. Each core includes a base, at least three walls projecting upward from a floor of the base, a ceiling closing off an interior space, and an interior kit of internal walls, appliances, fixtures, and the like. Each volume template, the selected cores, and internal kits are constructed concurrently at a manufacturing facility along with external walls to complete each volume, which is transported to the job site. Adjacent volumes are connected together, with service lines of each core being connected with supply lines at the job site.
