  Could you please make a sentence of your title ? What you want is not exactly explicit. What do your mean by modular style and there is a problem ?

The difference between input and include is how it's included, there is an old discussion on how to use them.

No, you do begindocument things only once. Then you use includechapter3 once per chapter. You can basically cut the chapter text from the big document, place it into chapter3.tex and insert the include statement instead in the main document.

Update: Oh, an continuing scrying into your question: you compile the main document, as before. As the start of the compilation regarded, nothing changes for you that multiple included *.tex files are present.

I also recommend latexmk and git for more easy compilation and management of the source, but that's tangential.

You should input your .tex files in this way:

documentclass[options]theclass

%preamble

begindocument
sectionsection1name
inputsec1 %the file is sec1.tex 

sectionsection2name
inputsec2 %the file is sec2.tex
.
.
.
enddocument

So latex will paste the text where you call input

If I am not mistaken, include works quite the same but it starts a new page when you call include

That would be the best strategy.

If you want just one file, then write the document in this way:

documentclass[options]theclass
