Abstract
PPVC modular construction building has become one of the most recent construction technologies in the civil engineering sector and has piqued researchers’ interest. Few published studies consider the overall structural response to extreme wind load. As a result, there is a lack of appropriate design for PPVC modular systems under extreme wind standards. However, the existing literature has not yet studied the wind flow dynamic behaviors of PPVC modular steel construction (MSC) systems subjected to extreme wind loads. This paper, therefore, presents a numerical investigation into the structural performance and wind flow dynamic behavior of innovative PPVC modular steel construction (MSC) systems under extreme wind loads. The numerical technique varied in comparison with previous studies. The results showed that the suggested novel (MSC1) modular system is applicable to prevention of extreme wind action up to cyclone 2nd degree, the high story drift resistance compared with previous research, high stiffness performance, and overall strain energy. Additionally, the actual wind velocity surrounding (MSC2) was 31.5% higher compared to the Saffir–Simpson wind speed scale, and the 1.5 wind speed safety factor was suggested.
