Offsite construction is increasingly adopted in Canada's construction industry, bringing the benefits of reduced construction waste and improved productivity. However, the current tools and management systems within the construction industry are not suited to directly serve this newly adopted approach. In this regard, Fortis LGS Structures Inc. is collaborating with the University of Alberta to develop specific tools for their offsite construction operations. Fortis is an Edmonton-based residential builder focusing on a panelized construction approach whereby components such as walls are prefabricated in a factory and delivered to the site for installation. Four tasks are proposed for this CRD program: (i) to develop a Building Information Modelling (BIM) system that can automatically perform the quantity take-off, based upon which construction schedules can be planned and daily updates can be achieved; (ii) to apply target cost analysis to compare designs based on BIM models; (iii) to develop an integrated management framework for panelized construction applying lean principles; and (iv) to find a hybrid structure design method that can be used as a benchmark for Fortis's high-rise residential projects. This research project will benefit Canada in the following aspects: (i) the proposed research will establish a framework for improving productivity for modularized/panelized construction, which can be achieved by applying lean manufacturing principles and implementing BIM tools to automate the design and drafting process; and (ii) the proposed research will form a management system that is suitable to the modularized/panelized construction industry, which optimizes material usage and mitigates carbon emissions.

加拿大建筑业越来越多地采用异地施工，减少了建筑垃圾，提高了生产力。然而，建筑行业目前的工具和管理系统不适合直接服务于这种新采用的方法。在这方面，Fortis LGS Structures Inc.正在与阿尔伯塔大学合作，为其场外施工作业开发特定工具。富通是一家总部位于埃德蒙顿的住宅建筑商，专注于面板化的建筑方法，即在工厂预制墙壁等组件，并交付到现场进行安装。该CRD计划提出了四项任务：（i）开发一个建筑信息模型（BIM）系统，该系统可以自动执行数量计算，在此基础上可以规划施工进度并实现每日更新;（ii）应用目标成本分析来比较基于BIM模型的设计;（iii）应用精益原则为面板式施工开发一个综合管理框架;（iv）开发一个可用于建筑的建筑信息模型（BIM）系统。以及（iv）找到一种可用作富通高层住宅项目基准的混合结构设计方法。这一研究项目将在以下方面使加拿大受益：㈠拟议的研究将建立一个提高模块化/镶板化建筑生产率的框架，这可以通过应用精益制造原则和实施BIM工具来实现，以使设计和绘图过程自动化;及（ii）建议的研究将形成一套适合模块化/嵌板化建造业的管理系统，其优化材料使用并减轻碳排放。
