dc.description.abstractThe underestimation of the conceptual divergences in the field of construction industrialization (CI) has led to the understanding of distinct positions and terms as equivalent and to their interchangeable use. This has generated ambiguity regarding the concept in literature and professional practice, limited knowledge exchange and collaboration, hindered the establishment of measurement bases and regulatory contexts, and led to incorrect assumptions about benefits. This study addresses the need for a comprehensive framework that highlights and facilitates the recognition and shared understanding of conceptual divergences in CI. An in-depth analysis of terminology and definitions was conducted through a systematic literature review, content analysis, and hierarchical cluster analysis. The findings present a comprehensive compendium of CI terms and definitions proposed between 1949 and 2023, cited at least once between 2017 and 2023. Sixty-eight underlying themes in CI definitions were identified, and the predominant conceptual approaches in contemporary literature were determined. Clarifying CI's conceptual divergences facilitates the effective exchange of knowledge and the consistent implementation of CI practices in diverse contexts. It also contributes to the work of researchers and professionals from diverse perspectives is based on the recognition and shared understanding of this diversity, promoting the advancement of the CI knowledge field.
