A celebration of construction achievement over the past 100 years is the subject of a new book called The Top 10 Construction Projects of the 20th Century. The book is the fourth in the Classic Construction Series.

Projects in the book include (in alphabetical order) the Aswan High Dam, Channel Tunnel, Chek Lap Kok Airport, Empire State Building, Golden Gate Bridge, Hoover Dam, Panama Canal, Sydney Opera House, the US Interstate Highway system and World Trade Center in New York city.

The inspiration behind the new graphically illustrated book is the "Top 10 Construction Achievements of the 20th Century" poll organised by the organiser of the Conexpo-Con/Agg '99 exhibition. From a list of over 100 projects nominated by construction professionals across the globe, the final 10 were selected by votes poled from readers of the world's construction press.
