| China's 'opening up' released a huge, pent up demand for buildings and infrastructure. New towns and cities appeared everywhere, and the biggest urbanization process the world has ever seen got underway. China's construction industry was ill equipped to meet the demand the world's fastest growing economy was putting on it. Fortunately the reforms also opened channels for learning and travel after the isolation of the cultural revolution, and men and women from industry, academia and government eagerly went forth in search of new techniques and modes of operation that would help meet the new challenge. Thanks to these people a huge and complex industry began to transform itself. Their stories, presented here, provide a fascinating insight into a pivotal point in China's history. |
