Abstract


The use of industrialized systems often clashes with the inertia of traditional construction methods, the lack of technical knowledge and fear of a budget increase of all those agents involved in the process of design, construction and dwelling. This article stresses the relevance of systematize and rationalize the entire process. The promotion of industrial systems requires a wide understanding of the industrial context and the need of changing construction habits. It is an strategic and conscious effort to boost the construction industry, as well as a means to achieve higher quality in the product, and safer construction sites. To support the implementation of industrialized construction systems, is important to stress the environmental benefits of their use, such as recyclability, energetic efficiency of their production and the smaller amount of waste material. At last, never forget the satisfaction and participation in the whole process of the final user.
