Design optimisation towards lower embodied carbon of prefabricated buildings: Balancing standardisation and customisation

The design principle of standardisation is widely acknowledged for its potential in reducing embodied carbon emissions (CE) in prefabrications through the facilitated reuse of prefabricated elements. Yet, its effectiveness in optimising CE in precast constructions remains underexplored. This article...
