Overview

     The growing demand for higher productivity in the economy is being reflected by an increasing mechanization of construction work. Consequently it is essential that construction engineers in particular are aware of the applications and management of construction equipment, and also that experienced professionals have a readily accessible source of information on modern construction technology
