China: Building for Joint Ventures

The last twenty years have seen dramatic changes in China as the country has moved from a centrally controlled communist state to a socialist market economy. The foreign investor will often require overseas designers, specialist contractors and suppliers to work in conjunction with local organisations on these projects. To operate effectively with the local industry, foreign organisations will have to develop an understanding of the background to the construction industry in China and familiarise themselves with the local construction process. This book aims to help foreign contributors to China's continuing economic development to gain a basic knowledge of these matters by presenting a broad picture of building in China and the system within which they will operate. More specifically, it looksat how a foreign party to a joint venture in China should go about thebusiness of commissioning, designing and constructing their buildings.
