Abstract
Innovation is seen as one of the major factors to improve construction industry. However, new technologies and processes are difficult for construction companies to adopt due to the conventional structure of the industry. Therefore, it needs to be regulated and promoted by the decision makers of whom prevailed of the benefits of innovation practices. This study aims to develop a structural equation model illustrating the impact of innovation on construction industry with a case study. The study results approved that there is a significant relationship between the innovation practices of construction companies and construction industry innovation.
期刊介绍：
The scope of Teknik Dergi is naturally confined with the subjects falling in the area of civil engineering. However, the area of civil engineering has recently been significantly enlarged, even the definition of civil engineering has somewhat changed.
Half a century ago, engineering was simply defined as “the art of using and converting the natural resources for the benefit of the mankind”. Today, the same objective is expected to be realised (i) by complying with the desire and expectations of the people concerned and (ii) without wasting the resources and within the sustainability principles. This change has required an interaction between engineering and social and administrative sciences. Some subjects at the borderline between civil engineering and social and administrative sciences have consequently been included in the area of civil engineering.
Teknik Dergi defines its scope in line with this understanding. However, it requires the papers falling in the borderline to have a significant component of civil engineering.
