Abstract
Sustainable development has been one important transition goal worldwide. The flexible design extends the frequency and lifespan of buildings by meeting the ever-changing needs of users to increase building sustainability. In this research, module coordination is selected to balance the modularity and flexibility of the modular timber school project. Functional flexibility is quantified by the AHP method based on a three-layer tree diagram assessment framework. The criteria and indicators are determined from the literature following the PRISMA systematic review process. According to the British Educational Building Design Code on area, the common module of school buildings is summarised by comparing the basic spatial dimensions of school buildings of different scales. Six modular grid sizes are selected as the scenarios for comparing the overall flexibility and flexibility in production, construction and service supported by the TOPSIS multi-criteria decision-making method. The ranking for the six sets of the modular grid for timber school classroom unit are summarized in different perspectives.
