Abstract

This study develops a multi-factor risk assessment model for prefabricated construction projects, covering production capacity, transportation limits, on-site conditions, and worker skills. A scoring system was tested on 21 projects across three provinces. Results show that transportation delays and inaccurate component scheduling were the most significant risk contributors. The model provides a structured framework for predicting project uncertainty and improving planning reliability during the early design stage.
