Modular building construction system

A facility comprising:

• a plurality of primary function modules, each primary function module is configured to house equipment for a primary function;
• at least one transition module connected with at least two of the plurality of primary function modules such that people are able to move from at least one of the primary function modules to at least one other of the primary function modules via the transition module, and
• a support module configured to house equipment for supporting the primary function modules and the at least one transition modules,
• wherein each primary function module includes multiple preassembled service modules mounted inside the primary function module, each one of said preassembled service modules includes a support framework, at least one of ventilation ducting, an electrical cable tray, and piping for supply of at least one fluid to the primary function module, and
• wherein said ventilation ducting, said electrical cable tray, and said piping are preassembled into the preassembled service module and are configured such that said ventilation ducting, said electrical cable tray, and said piping of one of the service modules mounted in said primary function module can be connected to ventilation ducting, cable tray, and piping of an adjacent service module mounted in said primary function module.

A method of assembling a facility comprising the steps:

• providing a plurality of primary function modules, each primary function module configured to house equipment for a primary function;
• connecting at least one transition module with at least two of the plurality of primary function modules in order to allow people to move from at least one of the primary function modules to at least one other of the primary function modules via the transition module, and
• connecting at least one support module configured to house equipment for supporting the primary function modules and the at least one transition modules to at least one of the primary function modules and/or the at least one transition module,
• mounting multiple preassembled service modules inside each one of the primary function modules, said preassembled service module includes a support framework, at least one of ventilation ducting, an electrical cable tray, and piping for supply of at least one fluid to the primary function module, and
• connecting said ventilation ducting, said electrical cable tray, and said piping of a service module mounted in said primary function module to ventilation ducting, cable tray, and piping of an adjacent service module mounted in said primary function module.
