Abstract:

Most ancient cities are unplanned, with most businesses in the central core and people from suburbs working there. CBD traffic loads are growing rapidly, straining commute facilities. Urban road infrastructure and unrestrained expansion severely impede mobility. Today, construction project duration and environmental impact matter most. Innovation involves applying solutions that meet new requirements through an engineering process that may not be fully new but adapts the approach to the local constraint and is more evolutionary than revolutionary. Innovative solutions must be optimal in design, cost-effective, and improved in constructability with prototype testing often being used to validate the design, constructability, loopholes to fix, and construction timeframe to adopt. This paper describes some of the creative construction approaches utilised to improve urban built environments, safety, and construction time.
