Introduction: Worldwide, the demand for housing has grown dramatically during the past ten years. It is especially noticeable in nations with rapid economic growth and high rates of population expansion. Many nations use pre-cast concrete technology, which is one of the most economically advantageous and quality-monitored systems. Objectives: Although numerous studies have looked into various facets of prefabrication in the building industry, a comprehensive analysis of its current state of development that combines environmental, economic, and social sustainability components is still lacking. By creating a systematic framework, examining the research status quos, and making suggestions for future research, this study seeks to close this research gap. Methods: In this study, the costs of residential building construction for cast-in-situ versus precast concrete were compared. This study also looked into why using a precast concrete approach for building has lower overall costs than using cast-in-place methods. Four cases - complete monolithic construction, partially monolithic construction (walls alone precast and frames alone precast), and entirely precast construction were taken into consideration. The data analysis was carried out using Primavera P6 software. Findings: After data analysis, it was shown that the cast in-situ construction and pre-cast cost differed significantly. The findings showed that employing the pre-cast construction method, 70.40% of the cost effectiveness and 54.40% of the schedule were attained. Novelty: The exact cost and schedule effectiveness of cast in-situ and pre-cast construction was reported in this study using Primavera P6 software.
