dc.description.abstractAI-GENERATED ABSTRACT: Abstract: The increasing demand for sustainable building methods and environmental awareness has driven the field of architecture to explore innovative solutions. Prefabrication, as a construction approach, offers potential for more environmentally friendly and efficient building practices. This thesis delves into the concept of prefabrication, encompassing various techniques like modular construction and panelized systems. The research aims to explore how prefabrication can significantly enhance sustainability in future construction practices, examining its history, design principles, environmental implications, and challenges. Through a comprehensive qualitative literature review, this study provides valuable insights into the potential and limitations of prefabricated architecture, contributing to the ongoing debate on sustainable construction. Keywords: prefabrication, sustainable construction, modular construction, panelized systems, environmental implications, efficiency, innovative materialsen
