The National Institute of Building Sciences\u2019 (NIBS\u2019) Off-Site Construction Council (OSCC) conducted a survey and found the majority of respondents have used and will continue to use off-site construction methods.<\/p>\n

OSCC conducted the survey in the fall of 2014 to gain an understanding of how the U.S. construction sector is using off-site construction techniques and technologies. The participants (who could select multiple categories) used off-site elements for commercial construction, industrial, healthcare, education, multi-family, and hospitality.<\/p>\n

The survey found 93 percent of respondents said they utilized off-site fabricated components over the past year, and 83 percent expected to use the technique more often or the same amount in the next 12 months. When asked about the related lifecycle benefits, participants said they saw schedule reductions (more than 73 percent identified a reduction to the overall project schedule), overall cost benefits, reduced defects, and increased quality.<\/p>\n

The OSCC is using the results from the survey\u2014along with case studies\u2014to inform development of an Off-site Construction Implementation Guide.<\/em><\/p>\n
