| Abstract: |
Innovations to achieve construction that is fit for purpose, cost effective and which delights the eye have not always been successful. Some innovations have created a legacy of deteriorating, unmaintainable, functionally inappropriate and sometime ugly structures in housing, hospitals highways, education and public buildings. Faulty diagnosis of the reasons for failure has often led to the discarding of sound innovations flawed only by easily remedied local faults. A check list for reducing risk in innovation is provided |
