Prefabricated Volumetric Modular Construction: A Review on Current Systems, Challenges, and Future Prospects

Ajay Chourasia et al.

Summary: Rapid urbanization and population growth worldwide have increased the demand for fast and efficient construction techniques. Prefabricated volumetric modular construction (PVMC) is an emerging trend in the industry, offering advantages such as construction efficiency, speed, safety, and reduced environmental impact. However, the application of PVMC is limited due to challenges in understanding joint connections, seismic behavior, and design methods.

Additive Manufacturing in Off-Site Construction: Review and Future Directions

Jubert Pasco et al.

Summary: Additive Manufacturing (AM) is a key component of Industry 4.0 for achieving a circular economy, with the potential to improve construction efficiency in off-site construction. This paper reviews the types of AM processes and their applications in off-site construction, discussing material types, mechanical properties, and strategies for assessing cost and material considerations.

Addressing the capital cost barrier to sustainable construction

Mohammad Nasereddin et al.

Summary: This research aims to address the capital cost barrier to sustainable construction by integrating concepts and processes from sustainable construction, value management, and total quality management into a novel approach for reducing whole life costs. Findings revealed that the capital cost of a LEED silver certified building in Jordan is around 20-25% higher than traditional buildings, but clients in Jordan find an additional cost of 5-10% acceptable for LEED certification, regardless of operational cost savings.
