What is Technology? The answer depends on to whom the question is asked. Or, more aptly, when. As “The application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes, especially in industry,” the answer depends on scientific knowledge.But that doesn’t tell the full story.Technology and Advanced Technology—the cutting edge stuff—have different stories of adoption that are not only related to when they are developed, but also how and why. Different societies may give priority to a particular field of research and economic development more than others. Historic times certainly do the same, and even then, the industries have something to say about that too. As often happens, the bottom line is that generalization is useful to grasp a generic view of the concept. Still, if you really want to understand the specifics, we must dive in vertically. This is what we do in this episode.In today's podcast, we try to understand how technology moves in the construction industry, and to do so, we invited Ioannis Brilakis, Laing O'Rourke Reader in Construction Engineering at the University of Cambridge, and Tim Embley, Group Research &amp; Innovation Director at Costain.This is a conversation that unveils the intricate paths that technological advancements take in an industry that is almost as old as humanity—at least since when we decided that a cave wasn’t good enough anymore—we decided we could do much better than that.From development to adoption, we explore how construction is not just about putting bricks on top of the others and why we have autonomous machines, robots, AI, and IoT solutions with tons of data to create today's buildings. Still, we see workers digging in with the good old shovel.As usual, with our guests, we look at the past, the present, and the future of an industry where, perhaps more than many others, affect or society and way of life. From the way we live and work today, to our infrastructure, the urbanist planning, and for our environment. To put it simply, advanced technology in construction affects the vision of what our future can be—and, especially, what we want it to be.Get your shovel, and let's dig into this conversation. Guest(s)Ioannis Brilakis, Laing O'Rourke Reader in Construction Engineering at the University of CambridgeTim Embley, Group Research &amp; Innovation Director at CostainThis Episode’s Sponsors:BlackCloak: https://itspm.ag/itspbcwebTo see and hear more The Cyber Society content on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/the-cyber-societyAre you interested in sponsoring an ITSPmagazine Channel?https://www.itspmagazine.com/podcast-series-sponsorships
