Abstract

Off-site construction (OSC) is an architectural approach involving the prefabrication of building structures, components, parts, and equipment in a factory, followed by transportation to the construction site for assembly and installation. This method is particularly suitable for buildings with simple, repetitive structures and straightforward processes, such as hospitals, hotels, and schools. However, the inherent prefabrication characteristic has led to a widespread negative perception among the general public, resulting in significant resistance, especially from parents, concerning educational buildings utilizing OSC. In response, this study targeted users currently employing OSC in institutional buildings to analyze critical perception factors and derive avenues for enhancing the activation of OSC methods. The survey, categorized into seven factors, revealed that safety factors received the most positive responses, while social factors were identified as the most negatively perceived. The analysis of improvement requirements for OSC indicated that addressing issues related to hazardous material exposure and improving air quality are crucial in the equipment and eco-friendly aspects. In terms of design and usability improvement, maintaining harmony with the surrounding environment was identified as essential. Ultimately, this study anticipates the activation of OSC through the analysis of user perceptions and improvement suggestions for each OSC factor.
