Due to the growing housing deficit, Chile developed an initiative to densify well-located 9x18 meter lots through "small social housing condominiums." So, the question arises: What can we improve from industrialization to make this opportunity more efficient, better, and more massive? This work arises from the observation that the main gaps in the awarding of subsidies in this country are the speed of response from the executors, construction times, insecurity in the neighborhoods, access to qualified labor, quality of construction, and flexibility in design. In response to these gaps, the "Industrialized Building 4 CLT modules" proposes a permanent stock of prefabricated housing, more than 90% prefabrication of the works, zero storage on site, maximum productivity in manufacturing lines, quality control in the factory and flexible modular design.
