As one of the key ways to realize the industrialization and green development of construction, prefabricated construction is conducive to saving resources and energy and improving labor productivity and quality. Aiming to solve the problem of the lack of standardization in the design of prefabricated residential buildings, which leads to the components not being universally used and the industrial characteristics not being fully embodied, while excessive standardization leads to a lack of personalization and flexibility, the modular design theory is applied to the standardized design of prefabricated residential buildings in this study. The application route of modular design theory in the standardized design is constructed, that is, “system decomposition—module design—module combination”. Taking residential buildings within a height of 54 m as an example, each basic functional module is standardized and combined into standard plans. At the same time, the functional space module design based on modular coordination and the module combination design based on the trinity of “modulus, pattern, and mode” are discussed. This research is of great significance for giving full play to the comprehensive benefits of prefabricated concrete structures in quality improvement, cost reduction, and rapid assembly.

To investigate the anchorage performance of an innovative assembled joint with large-diameter steel bar grout lapping in a concrete reserved hole, the effects of anchorage length and high-strength grouting material types on the failure mode, load–displacement curve, ultimate bond strength and strain variation were analyzed through the pull-out tests of 15 specimens. On this basis, the calculation formulae of critical and ultimate anchorage length were established and the applicability was verified, and then the recommended value of minimum anchorage length was provided. The results showed that the failure modes included splitting-steel bar pull-out failure and UHPC-concrete interface failure. With the increase in anchorage length, the bond strength showed a trend of increasing first and then decreasing. Increasing the grouting material strength can effectively improve the bond performance. When the anchored steel bar is HRB400 with a diameter not less than 20 mm, the recommended minimum anchorage length is 15.0d~18.3d. When the grouting material strength is larger than or equal to 100 MPa, the anchorage length should not be less than 15.0d.

Prefabricated buildings are promoting building industrialization and low-carbon development due to their high quality, high efficiency and sustainability. The standardized design process and efficient design method are the fundamental ways to achieve efficient design of prefabricated buildings. In order to solve the problems of low standardization and limited design methods of prefabricated buildings, this study takes the prefabricated concrete composite wall-slab system (PCCWS) as an example and establishes a standardized design process for prefabricated components. Based on the Building Information Model (BIM) technology, a 3D parts library system was established using MATLAB software. The system stores the prefabricated components into the parts library, and the user can search, retrieve, and incorporate them. Taking a prefabricated dormitory project as an example, this study compares the design method of a 3D parts library based on BIM with the traditional design method. The preliminary findings show that the design method proposed in this study can improve the design efficiency by 42.9%. This study has practical significance for improving the design efficiency of prefabricated buildings and reducing production costs and provides a reference for the design method of prefabricated buildings.
