GOALS FOR BASIC RESEARCH IN CONSTRUCTION

This report and the workshop upon which it was based were designed to identify, set priorities for, and focus high-level attention on the need for basic research in construction engineering and management, especially in manpower and organizational development, management methodologies, innovations in construction methods, and construction industry dynamics. Closer working relationships were developed between the construction industry, private and government consumers of construction services, and university programs in construction engineering management. In the private sector, several participants suggested that an organization such as the Business Roundtable could provide leadership in establishing a coordinated program for funding basic research in construction.
