This book was released on 2014-06-20 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: R&D Investment and Impact in the Global Construction Industry brings together contributions from leading industry researchers in a diverse group of countries to investigate the role of research and development (R&D) in the construction industry. Investment in R&D is a proven factor in economic growth, and helps develop a more productive and innovative industry. This book explores how policy makers and industry leaders can better target future investment; and how industry and researchers can manage their efforts to improve productivity whilst addressing the environmental and social needs of their communities. Case studies present projects where R&D ideas funded by both the private and public sectors have been translated from research into practice or policy, and examine drivers, successes and barriers to the delivery of R&D in industry. Based on research from members of the CIB Task Group 85 (R&D Investment and Impact) and concluding with key insights for maximising the impact of R&D in the future, the book holds valuable lessons for practitioners, policy makers and researchers across the international construction industry.

Download or read book The Global Cement Industry written by Sui Pheng Low and published by NUS Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cement is one of the most basic building materials in the global construction industry. Nevertheless, although it occupies an important role in construction, its characteristics in the global sense are still relatively unknown. The findings in this book reveal, for example, that the manufacture of cement is predominantly capital intensive; that the production and distribution of cement is a highly vertically integrated trade; that the major cement producers resort to large scale price cutting when there are production surpluses; that geographical affinity can determine the flow of the global cement trade; and that the global demand for cement is erratic, and more.

Part 2 then focuses on the Singapore experience over a 25-year period as it attempted to develop its industry without a central agency for construction development, later set up as the CIBD of Singapore, while Part 3 considers the circumstances behind the Board's formation and assesses its work.

Book Synopsis Global Construction Data by : Stephen Gruneberg
Download or read book Global Construction Data written by Stephen Gruneberg and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-08-12 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global construction data is vital for contractors, governments, international organisations, policy makers, academic researchers and statisticians. As the global population of the world expands, the sustainability of the built environment raises the political agenda and the need to manage infrastructure and buildings in both urban and rural contexts becomes ever more pressing. How much more can the built environment grow and how can it be managed sustainably? This edited volume addresses how we can find a possible way through the inconsistencies between national construction data sets to devise a consistent approach to national construction data to further the global sustainability agenda and inform policy making. This search begins in Part I, which looks at the methods and definitions used in construction statistics in different countries. Part II considers examples of different types of construction data from the cost of materials, measuring work on high rise buildings and existing stock. In Part III, the authors consider construction data internationally, beginning with the problem of comparing data in different countries using exchange rates and purchasing power parities (PPPs), comparing innovation processes in different countries and looking at the provision of building design internationally. In Part IV, the international theme is continued by comparing accounting practices and company performance in different countries and concludes with an international comparison of construction industries. This book raises awareness of the significance of the construction industry globally and the importance of data to measure it. It informs the discussion of the best ways of handling the consequences of policies affecting the built environment and the effect of the built environment on the rest of the economy and society. It is essential reading for international economists, construction industry consultants, policy makers, construction statisticians and academics.
