In the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) sector, prefabricated building has emerged as one of the most important research areas and drawn a lot of academics and professionals in recent years. On the other hand, not many studies have carried out a thorough analysis of the global advancements in prefabricated building research. In this study, co-authors, co-words, and co-citation analyses are performed using the scientometric approach to examine the literature on prefabricated buildings published in the last 10 years. According to the analysis's findings, Bruno Dal Lago received the most co-citations of any researcher studying prefabricated buildings, making him the most influential researcher in his country or region. Additionally, it was discovered that the top three subject areas to which prefabricated building research belonged were engineering, civil engineering, and construction and building technology. "Cladding panel," "precast concrete," and "project" earned the most citation bursts out of all the keywords included in the gathered articles. Additionally, 11 co-citation clusters containing the themes of precast facades, carbon reduction, waste management, progressive collapse, delay, precast structures, laser scanning, and prefabricated residential buildings were found in the articles. Researchers and industry professionals in this sector should gain a thorough understanding of the current state of worldwide prefabricated building research from this paper.
