Abstract: |
Mass housing is always in bulk and is referred to as mass housing and built by conventional method. However Modern methods of construction like Off-Site Construction (OSC) in mass housing has been researched very limited. In this context, this study attempted to use building information modelling (BIM) to evaluate the performance of OSC in mass housing projects. In this study BIM models of base and OSC developed and evaluated cost and time. Besides, COVID-19 impact on project also reported. The investigation results shown the cost effective of OSC in mass housing projects proven to be significant in terms of project time and cost savings by 67% and 23%, respectively. Nevertheless, this study contributes to the body of knowledge and may set guidelines for housing policy makers and construction practitioners with an option of adopting OSC and use of BIM to minimize overall project timeline and optimize the workforce. |
