GREEN, ALAN C.; KOPPES, WAYNE F. – 1967
THE OBJECTIVES OF THIS STUDY WERE--(1) TO DETERMINE THE INFLUENCE OF MODULAR COORDINATION OF BUILDING DESIGN, (2) TO INVESTIGATE CURRENT ATTITUDES OF THE BUILDING INDUSTRY TOWARD THE MODULAR CONCEPT, AND (3) TO EVALUATE THE CONCEPT'S SIGNIFICANCE, MERIT, AND IMPLICATIONS IN TERMS OF SCHOOL BUILDING DESIGN. THESE OBJECTIVES WERE REALIZED BY A…

Stephens, Suzanne – Progressive Architecture, 1975
To hold down construction costs of student housing, Brockport College decided on a fixed-cost competition, in which architects had to team up with contractors. The winning firm used a French industrialized building system and exterior panels of weathered steel to construct a village of 27 four-story buildings. (JG)

New Jersey State Dept. of Higher Education, Trenton. – 1972
The major special feature of a planned college building is the application of Academic Building System (ABS) planning concepts to the building design and construction. The primary feature of this approach is total future flexibility of general academic space by use of movable and compatible subsystems. These subsystems appear in the form of…
