End products in the construction industry
An end product is anything that is the intended or unintended result of a specific action or process, be that physical or conceptual.
A building is the end product of the design and construction process; while a car may be said to be the end product of the design and manufacturing process.
A fire may be the end product of ambiguous regulations that are exploited by unscrupulous builders, etc.
An end product may also be conceptual, e.g a revolutionary new idea that might have resulted from a brainstorming process. While in virtual reality, an end product can be experienced without having to create a physical object.
