Abstract
Contrary to industry perception, opportunities to make projects better are not exclusive to the scoping and design phases. It is often thought that the construction stage is about building according to the plans. In this session we will look at changes made during construction that greatly benefited the project, owner, and contractor. These changes range from minor plan adjustments to major redesigns that resulted in constructing a brand new bridge instead of a rehabilitation.
