1. Introduction
Contractor, Owner and Society are main parts of any project and there are a lot of information, communication and work between them. Technologies plays important rule to facilitate the project for all parties. In this research, we will see the impact of technologies on construction and contract we will see in detail how the technologies help to complete the project with low cost, avoid disputes between contractor and owner and without mistakes. Moreover, the impact of technologies on communication system will be covered in this research that will show how it 's consequential effects on the successful of completing projects. Furthermore, technologies is improving day by day so the future has a lot of technologies that will play important role in advancing projects construction, contracts and the relationship between the owner and the contractor. In this research we will see how nanotechnology is one of most important future technologies and its effects on civil engineering. (*ref 7.1-7.8)
2. Impact Of Technology On Construction
Projects construction recently has used latest technologies to enhance the performance of worker, increase the productivity and improve safety. In this part of research we will see how 3/4 Dimension technologies are applied and what they need to be used effectively. Also we will see how the technology plays important role to avoid and mitigate the conflict and dispute between owner and contractor. Finally, we will see the
