Money Has Enabled Humans To Design, Build And Move Things At Incredible Speeds.

If we look back to projects such as the Eiffel Tower, which wowed at the time, they now seem a little futile compared to the skyscrapers and construction creations of today.

If something seems impossible, it is likely that mankind will try and conquer it. We have already done many amazing things, such as building tallest Skyscrapers.

Here are the top 7 expensive yet fascinating projects in the history of mankind.

Canada’s wood construction industry has adapted to meet the needs of our audiences despite challenges presented by the COVID crisis. The Canadian Wood Council and it’s Wood WORKS! program are working together with its members and industry partners to overcome any challenges. We’re […]

It takes a long way through planning and installation until the machine is used for the first time – the report accompanies the creation of a mega crane.

Bridges built over water are marvels of engineering no matter how shallow or deep the water may be. But how exactly are these bridges built, particularly over deep water? It turns out there are three main techniques for the construction of such bridges and they are battered piles, cofferdams, and caissons
