Traditional construction, Modern construction, Efficiency, Sustainability, Cultural relevanceAbstract
The findings reveal that modern construction methods significantly enhance efficiency and reduce overall project costs, primarily through innovative techniques such as prefabrication and modular construction. In contrast, traditional methods excel in craftsmanship and cultural significance, often resulting in distinctive architectural features that reflect local heritage. While traditional practices demonstrate lower environmental impact through the use of locally sourced materials, modern methods are increasingly incorporating sustainable practices to mitigate their ecological footprint. This study advocates for a hybrid approach that integrates the advantages of both methodologies, suggesting that such an integration can lead to improved project outcomes while promoting sustainability and preserving cultural identity. The research contributes valuable insights for industry stakeholders seeking to balance efficiency and quality in an evolving construction landscape. Future studies are encouraged to explore practical applications of this hybrid model to enhance decision-making in construction projects.
