Abstract
The Scandinavian construction industry is characterised
by high quality craftsmanship, but also by an array of highly
industrialised, but not always coordinated building systems.
This book aims to shed some light on these systems and
their underlying concepts.
By looking at both the systems themselves, the way they
are produced and the business models behind them, the
systems and concepts are assessed in their broader organisational
context and not just as physical manifestations of
their design intentions.
Acknowledging that there is more than one possible way of
enhancing the application of industrialised solutions in building
and architecture, the present work introduces a framework
of several different strategies for industrialisation and
assesses their viabilities.
