Author: Joachim Thiel, Venetsiya Dimitrova, Johanna Ruge (eds.)
The construction sector is not exactly known for its innovation. The reputation of large-scale projects builds less on their capacity to generate novelty than on their likelihood to fail. Yet throughout the history of construction, the sector has regularly experienced the introduction of novel technologies and techniques, often advanced through large-scale projects such as the Eiffel Tower or Sydney Opera House. This book seeks to shed light on this aspect of large-scale construction projects.
