His goal: to experience the continent’s roads, railways, and bridges firsthand and to learn about the civil engineering culture through visits to local universities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this book, he recounts his experiences through diary entries, allowing readers to share in them directly – thanks in part to numerous photographs. His account is enriched by contributions from African colleagues. Schlaich’s observations culminate in seven essays that consider the current state and future of civil engineering in Africa. Thoroughly researched and supported by well-presented data, these essays encourage deeper engagement with a continent that, if only because of its population growth, will become increasingly important in the years ahead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e· Published as volume 200 in the Basics series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e210 × 230 mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e240 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e330 images\u003cbr\u003eSoftcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eISBN \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003e978-3-86922-933-1\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"DOM publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58236562997512,"sku":"978-3-86922-933-1","price":38.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1416\/5196\/files\/9783869229331.jpg?v=1784121388","url":"https:\/\/dom-publishers.com\/de\/products\/building-in-africa","provider":"DOM publishers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
