Analysis of Prefabricated Systems and Their Role in the Development of Sustainable Construction in Iran, with Emphasis on the Book Prefabricated Systems and Principles of Construction

Population growth, the increasing demand for housing, the expansion of deteriorated areas, high construction costs, and the long duration of project implementation are among the factors contributing to the development of prefabricated systems. The use of these systems in Iran requires effective planning, management, and organization. The present study aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the formation, development, and application of prefabricated systems through an analysis of the book Prefabricated Systems and Principles of Construction by Knaack et al. (۲۰۱۲). The book consists of seven chapters. The research method is based on library studies and content analysis. The results indicate that, in addition to reducing construction time and costs, prefabricated systems can contribute to achieving sustainable architecture and environmentally compatible construction through reducing material consumption, controlling construction waste, increasing energy efficiency, and optimizing resource use.Population growth, the increasing demand for housing, the expansion of deteriorated areas, high construction costs, and the long duration of project implementation are among the factors contributing to the development of prefabricated systems.
