Abstract:

Today, the professional activities of consulting engineers need new functions based on a research-based approach to the design, construction and operation of sophisticated construction projects. The authors introduce new terms and use the concept of technology platforms to present a research-driven platform for consulting engineers. This platform is a complex system that has three constituent subsystems, including “Processes”, the “Database of work items” and “Participants”. Formalized interaction between the platform constituents is based on a tree of goals. The implementation of actions, foc

Reports on a narrative inquiry study exploring the complexity of engineering contexts and endeavouring to establish how engineering contexts shape consulting engineers’ collaborative information behaviour. Fifteen responding engineers recollected their experiences of an engineering project in narrative interviews. The collected data were re-storied and analysed thematically. Multi-layered contexts seem to affect consulting engineers’ information behaviour. These include engineering organisations and engineering projects.

With the anticipated workload, it is little wonder that power-generation industry leaders are deeply worried about the supply of engineers between roughly 2015 and 2040.
