(1) To establish the scientific fundamentals and methodology of ""Modular Integrated Construction 2.0+"" (MiC 2.0+) for the supply and delivery of high quality and efficient tall residential buildings in dense urban areas through advanced structural engineering, innovative building materials and smart project delivery. (2) To develop scenario-based solutions of MiC 2.0+, tested in university laboratories and on an established MiC 2.0+ test base, and also demonstrated in real-life building projects, for the enhanced supply and delivery of tall residential buildings in Hong Kong in short, medium and long-term scenarios, which are structurally robust and efficient, durable and maintenance-friendly, and smart in their delivery and life-cycle management. (3) To substantiate the impact of the research, with developed pathways, on the supply and delivery of tall residential buildings in systemic terms of the scientific fundamentals and methodology of MiC 2.0+, the formulation and review of policy and regulations, development of technical codes and standards, integration of supply chains, shaping of housing markets, and enhancement of community and industry training and capability.
