In Russia, there is an increasing concern about the need for relocation from old housing that does not meet modern standards of living and is considered to be in emergency or dilapidated condition. The share of such housing continues to grow every year, making it one of the most significant challenges of modern housing policies. To address this issue, it is essential to develop effective strategies for maintaining the technical condition of existing buildings or constructing new ones. One promising approach is the use of steel modular structures, which are versatile, quickly assembled, and disassembled units that can be used for a variety of purposes. This innovative technology has many advantages and is becoming increasingly popular worldwide. The prefabricated and modular construction market in Russia is also growing rapidly, providing a promising avenue for addressing the housing shortage and improving living conditions for citizens. By adopting this approach, the country can create a more sustainable and efficient housing system that meets the needs of its citizens. However, like any other technology, steel modular construction has its weaknesses. One of these is that buildings constructed with a metal frame and malleable nodal joints may not meet the standards for dynamic comfort. The authors propose a potential solution to this issue, which involves the development of a special type of metal bolted nodal joint. They also compare different modeling methods for this joint in rod and plastic formulations. Based on the results of their research, a computational model of a modular building was created using the proposed nodal connection. The model was then tested to ensure that it meets the current standards for dynamic comfort. Further research is needed to improve and develop this approach. Recommendations for future studies in this area are provided.
