In the absence of an explicit and specific theory, the management of production processes in construction is essentially based on a Taylorist view, based on the economic theory of production. Thus, given the particularities of construction, the plans developed are often unreal, with recurring delays and unforeseen circumstances during production. Thus, because of the importance and the latent need to develop a specific theory, this article uses a systematic literature review (SLR) to comprehend what has been developed and discuss the topic. The main objective is to answer the following research questions: 1) What is being proposed to develop a production theory applied to construction? 2) What is the approach used in the publications? 3) What can be proposed for the body of knowledge in question to fill gaps? Based on the results of the SLR, it was verified that the development of such a theory appears to be very incipient and not formalized in the publications, with inconclusive results and weak multidisciplinary cooperation. Furthermore, there are indications that authors associated with Lean Thinking may be leading research on production theory in construction since most of the publications have results that were conceptually based on Lean Construction principles. It is understood that the content of this article is relevant because it outlines the current stage of development of the theory and indicates possible paths to achievements.

“…The concept of flexibility and adaptability in buildings has been extensively discussed by various authors. Costa et al (2017) state that "multiple definitions are adopted by different authors, and there is even some overlap between the terms flexibility and adaptability, sometimes used interchangeably and sometimes treated as distinct concepts. "…”

“…The Theory of Supports, developed by Habraken (1979), addresses the fundamental distinction between what he called "structural supports and detachable units" of the building. The concept is based on layered construction, which allows for the anticipation of future scenarios enabled by the chosen support system (structure and services) in the design (Costa et al, 2017).…”

In this paper, the existing methods for the assessment of flexibility and adaptability in buildings are reviewed. These methods have been tentatively proposed for a number of building types / uses -notably for residential buildings -and generally propose sets of indicators, variables and weights that combine into a score of flexibility. In spite of the limited practical applicability of these methods so far, they provide a stimulating approach to greater use and incorporation of the concepts and strategies of flexibility and adaptability, aiming at an increased performance of buildings.

“…Flexibility in architecture is understood as a building's capability to be changed under social and technological circumstances (Schneider and Till, 2005a). Its constructive technology is seen as a way to foster inhabitants' preferences along the house's life cycle, with optimization of resources (Costa et al, 2017).…”

This work starts with a hypothesis that housing design process can be an open system, whose resilience becomes positive when it is understood as a process with multiple agents, among one of them is the architect. Current housing production presents inadequacies and flexibility problems that bring this system to an unbalanced situation, which makes it more difficult for people to modify the space they live. This work aims to identify if and how the insertion of other architectural strategies in housing production could foster its resilience. In order to reach this objective, this research uses an explanatory approach based on a literature review on the theme and case studies. Firstly, the concepts of system and resilience are explored under approaches that cover the reductionist and the systemic paradigm. After that, some discussions regarding housing and counter-hegemonic practices are presented. Finally, selected case studies are analysed from the perspective of the resilience characteristics in order to verify if they develop the concept of housing as a continuous process. The results enforce the need for shifting the emphasis of current housing schemes to a new configuration of dynamic balance and highlight the role of open and informational processes to achieve this goal.
