Integrated Perspectives in Offsite Construction offers a comprehensive analysis of the multifaceted aspects of offsite construction and addresses critical gaps to advance this promising field. The book broadens the scope of offsite construction beyond manufacturing and assembly, incorporating the entire building life cycle from pre-construction (e.g., project initiation and design) to post-construction (e.g., occupancy and evaluation) to provide an integrated perspective. The first section explores pre-construction topics, including user perception, architectural design, and offsite construction supply chain selection and management. The second section highlights manufacturing, transportation, and assembly processes, focusing on the role of computational technologies in improving efficiency and sustainability. The final section examines post-occupancy evaluation and disassembly, offering lessons from real-world projects and identifying opportunities for improvement.
This book addresses crucial gaps in current practices by providing integrated perspectives from various stakeholders, showcasing the impact of technological advancements on the process, and illustrating the importance of collaboration among diverse stakeholders to enable successful implementation. With its holistic view and practical insights, it is a valuable resource for researchers, practitioners, educators, and industry professionals seeking to navigate and advance offsite construction.
