Abstract

The need for construction in the least amount of time, with the lowest cost and the best quality, has pushed the building industry towards industrial buildings with fast moving and quick installation. In this regard, the necessity of using new structures and materials to increase the speed of construction, lightening, and prolonging useful life more than ever has been proposed. The aim of this study was to study the 3D PANEL, LSF, and ICF modern systems with a focus on economic and operational and technical measures to test the utilization of these systems in villas in northern Iran. At first, library studies were conducted to get acquainted with these systems and effective measures to select the most appropriate method for making of articles, books, and documents related to the research. Then, the required data with comments from experts and building industry experts in construction contractors of Mazandaran province were collected through questionnaires. Finally, after the data collection, the most appropriate structure has been introduced using ELECTERE method. Considering all the criteria, it was revealed that among the structures mentioned above, the structure of the 3D PANEL was considered as the most appropriate structure for the construction of villas in northern Iran.
