This paper summarizes results of a policy-level workshop attended by a distinguished
group of construction people representing owners, contractors, government, and educators. The
April f975 workshop was funded by the National Science Foundation and was sponsored by the
Construction Institute at Stanford University. In 2 full days of frank far-reaching deliberations,
these industry leaders attempted to define basic problems that the industry will face in the years
ahead.
In specific terms, the workshop was designed to: (1) Identify basic research needs in the
management of construction; and (2) define and formulate goals for basic research in this area.
The participants’ efforts were concentrated in four general subject areas, including: (l) Manpower
and organizational development; (2) management methodologies; (3) innovations in construction
methods; and (4) construction industry dynamics. Before outlining the results, however, this
paper will consider the nature of basic research and its relationship to construction.
