Part 4/10:
Despite technological advances in other sectors, construction has remained largely unchanged since the early 20th century. The industry saw initial breakthroughs with hydraulics in the early 1900s, which made heavy machinery more powerful and precise by the 1960s. Since then, progress has been slow, with mechanical innovations plateauing over decades. This stagnation presents an opportunity—an impending wave of software-driven innovation that could breathe new life into construction practices.
