【 摘 要 】

In construction industries, deployable structure has the capability to transform the structures components into predetermined configurations, safe and designated final known direction to achieve their architectural function. This construction technique provides ease of transportation and erection, more space and rapid completion time. This review aims to provide an overview of current potential deployable structure and system towards prefabrication modular construction application to overcome space and transportation limitation. This paper reviews the principle, application, characteristics, types and classification and design consideration of the deployable structures. Based on the literature reviewed, the deployable structure with simple folding configuration principle in linear direction is practical in application. Beside, the strength and stiffness of deployable structure depends on the proper design, material quality, elements thickness, dimension, joint rigidity and deployment technology. However, shape and direction of movement for deployable structure elements need to be determined in the initial stage to minimize the design failure. The findings from this review will contribute to the transformation of prefab volumetric construction practice to solve the limited space and transportation constraints issues.
