ºÚ¶´ÉçÇø

Barriers to adopting BIM, the reality of meeting sustainability challenges, and how the Glasgow School of Art should be rebuilt after being ravaged by fire: the topics covered in this special iPad edition of ºÚ¶´ÉçÇø cover a wide range.

All, however, have one thing in common: they have been specially selected for inclusion by ºÚ¶´ÉçÇø’s industry contributors.

In the tradition of recommending summer reads, we asked a group of contributors to our online community sections to select one article each from ºÚ¶´ÉçÇø’s past year’s coverage that they felt deserved to have another moment in the sun, by being republished for those who may have missed it to read.

Some articles were chosen because they resonated immediately; others because they did so with the benefit of hindsight

As the introductions written by our contributors explain, some articles were chosen because they resonated immediately; others because they did so with the benefit of hindsight. Together, as a collection, they also provide a chance to pause and reflect on the issues that have shaped construction over the last twelve months.

So sit back, pour yourself a glass of Pimms, and enjoy.
