ABSTRACT
Construction industry has played an important position in Chinese economy and its market scale is expanding. However, the productivity of the construction industry is still very low and the waste of labor and materials is very serious. Construction industrialization is an irresistible trend and effective means to solve the problems in construction industry. So the paper integrates lean philosophy and lean tools into construction process to establish a lean construction system to improve the quality and efficiency of construction industry in the background of construction industrialization.
