Morphology
preconstruction = construction (transparent) = pre + construct + ion
The noun is transparently formed from 'construction' with 'pre-' to denote the stage before construction begins.
Etymology
Preconstruction comes from the prefix pre- 'before' and construction 'building', so as a noun it names the planning and preparation stage that happens before construction starts.
