When you think of honeycombs and construction sites, not too many parallels immediately come to mind. But after reading about new research from engineers and entomologists, they may have more in common than you think. According to the latest research, the way in which honeybees build honeycombs could actually lead to new fabrication techniques in the human construction industry. Editor-in-Chief Ellen Parson recently wrote an Industry Viewpoint on the fascinating findings. Our February cover story, written by Dr. Perry Daneshgari and Dr. Heather Moore of MCA, Inc., highlights the evolution of prefabrication in the electrical construction industry. And, just for fun, let’s see how much you know about the building habits of bees.
