It provides a practical guide for the transformation of the industry by detailing appropriate and effective implementation methods, required skill sets and structural changes necessary to facilitate the practical and innovative application of technology. The construction industry is behind other industries in its level of innovation and adoption of technology, and is of critical importance to many of today's global challenges, such as climate change, global warming and resource scarcity. There is therefore a need for smarter and more efficient ways of managing available resources. This book elaborates on how the innovative application of technology could offer hope for the construction industry in it's imperative to rise to current and future global challenges. It includes the real-world case studies of innovative projects that go beyond the current state-of-the-art academic research, and have improved productivity, quality and performance in the construction sector. This book provides readers from both industrial and academic backgrounds with a comprehensive guide on transforming the construction industry with the efficient and effective implementation of technologies and modern methods of construction. 001445421 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed April 6, 2022). 001445421 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001445421 650_0 $$aConstruction industry. 001445421 650_0 $$aConstruction industry$$xTechnological innovations. 001445421 650_6 $$aConstruction$$xIndustrie. 001445421 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001445421 7001_ $$aGhaffar, Seyed Hamidreza,$$eeditor. 001445421 7001_ $$aMullett, Paul,$$eeditor. 001445421 7001_ $$aPei, Eujin,$$eeditor. 001445421 7001_ $$aRoberts, John,$$eeditor. 001445421 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z3030957977$$z9783030957971$$w(OCoLC)1291171579 001445421 852__ $$bebk 001445421 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-95798-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001445421 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1445421$$pGLOBAL_SET 001445421 980__ $$aBIB 001445421 980__ $$aEBOOK 001445421 982__ $$aEbook 001445421 983__ $$aOnline 001445421 994__ $$a92$$bISE
