Title of Thesis:‘ High Strength Grouted Cold-formed Steel Sleeve Intermodule Connection for Concrete Modular Buildings.’
Modern construction is shifting from 2D panels to 3D modules, especially for high-rise buildings using reinforced concrete. These structures need less maintenance and have easier on-site connections compared to steel. Existing connections are often complicated and cause delays. Grouted Sleeve Connections( GSCs) are typically used, but cylindrical GSCs don’ t work well for thin walls. This research introduces a simpler rectangular grouted sleeve connector, which is easier to use and requires fewer workers. Its performance was tested under different loads using real-world experiments and computer simulations, aiming to create simple guidelines for future use.

Title of Thesis:‘ Behaviour and Design of Lightweight Concrete-filled Cold-formed Built-up Box Section Columns under Axial Compression.’
Cold-formed steel( CFS) sections have surged in popularity within practical engineering applications due to their lightweight nature and versatility but have suffered from premature buckling failure. This thesis investigates lightweight steelconcrete composite compression members made from CFS and lightweight concrete. These members are tailored for integration into light gauge framing systems and modular construction, aiming to propel advancements in affordable housing solutions. The thesis presents design methodologies and recommendations that can be served as reliable tools for practitioners and facilitate informed design decisions.
