Thus, the planes form free modular spaces which, according to the component are located. Thus, the planes form free modular spaces which, according to the design, may be filled out with modular components. The distance between the planes in such design, may be filled out with modular components. The distance between the planes in such a system is equal to the basic module (basic module grid) or to a multimodule (multimodular a system is equal to the basic module (basic module grid) or to a multimodule (multimodular grid) (an example is shown in Figure 1).

1.5.5 Location and dimensioningLocation and dimensioning
For the purposes of design, each building component and assembly is assumed to be located For the purposes of design, each building component and assembly is assumed to be located in a space within the reference system defined by reference planes or lines, i.e. its allocated in a space within the reference system defined by reference planes or lines, i.e. its allocated modular space. This space includes the space required for joints and permitted dimensional modular space. This space includes the space required for joints and permitted dimensional deviations (see Figure 5). Thus, in modular planning, the modular plane or grid line defining deviations (see Figure 5). Thus, in modular planning, the modular plane or grid line defining the location of a component does so by boundary reference (see Figure 6). In some cases it the location of a component does so by boundary reference (see Figure 6). In some cases it may be practical, however to define the location of, for example, the centerline of a may be practical, however to define the location of, for example, the centerline of a component in relation to the modular grid (see Figure 7). The latter can, however, be component in relation to the modular grid (see Figure 7). The latter can, however, be considered as a special case of a boundary reference.
