The ongoing undertaking of construction industrialization in China is redefining the industry\nand creating a new era for building construction. In order to identify the construction industrialization\nstatus and progress, a national survey is conducted across 19 key provinces and municipalities in China.\nBased on the collected data, construction industrialization is analyzed from various perspectives:\n(1) the industrialized building floor area is profiled using maps with colours showing the different\nlevels of construction industrialization in China as of 2014; and (2) structural types and building\ntypes are analyzed for industrialized construction, and it is found that reinforced concrete is\nthe predominant structure type, accounting for 77.1% of total floor area of industrialized construction\nin 2014. The industrialization trends are also predicted for the following five years using Holt�s\nand Delphi method. This research reveals the status and the promising trends of construction\nindustrialization in China.
