Appendix
A. Guidance
Tables
1. Preferred modular sizes based upon the multi-
     modules for horizontal and vertical dimensions
2. Modular sizes for horizontal coordinating
     dimensions of spaces
3. Modular sizes for vertical coordinating dimensions
     of spaces
4. Presentation of sizes in manufacturers' technical
     literature
5. Presentation of sizes in building designers'
     specifications
Figures
1. Basic module spacegrid
2. Examples of modular grids for specific purposes
     directly related to the basic module grid
3. Positions for the modular floor plane
4. Position for the modular floor plane
5. Positions of the structure in relation to the
     modular storey height and floor plane
6. Face and axial disciplines
7. Plans of external wall with 1 M columns
8. Plans of external wall with 2 M columns
9. Plan of external wall with 3 M columns
10. Plans of external walls with non-modular columns:
     effect on other components
11. Examples of finished faces of partitions defined
     by modular planes
12. Example of finished faces of partition not
     coinciding with modular planes
13. Assembly of modular fitment in non-modular space
14. Non-modular zone
15. Key reference planes for floors, ceilings and roofs
16. Key dimensions at changes of level
17. Positions for the modular floor plane
18. Positions of the structure in relation to the
     modular storey height and floor plane
19. Use of 75 mm brickwork courses with 100 mm reference
     system
20. Modular size = work size + joint
21. Plan of a building showing a use of multimodules
     to relate structure and cladding
22. Combinations of 3 M and 4 M components to fill every
     modular space from 6 M upwards
23. Relationship of joint reference planes to modular
     reference planes
24. Relationship between the modular size and the work
     size and joint gap width (showing that the joint
     gap width is twice the joint margin)
25. Open and closed arrows
26. Running dimensions
27. Reference lines and centre lines
Index

Rules for modular reference systems for use in the design of buildings; for the position of key reference planes; and for the sizing of buildings, their components and materials.
