Construction seems to be the most distant of any discipline from any notion of philosophy. Philosophy asks basic question such as “why” and engages in a rigorous process of inquiry about the way we think and act in the world. In any project we have met people from carpenters to senior managers who also ask deep questions and seek strong explanations. So maybe we in construction just pretend it is all about getting our hands dirty and getting the job down without thinking. In reality we are all philosophers as many a banter on site alludes to. In the face of this, the creation of a project which reveals the philosophical aspects of construction and sees it as a tool of community development is not that strange, even if the presence of a professional philosopher in the team as a productive member may still be a long way off.

The project involves three stages with a total of 30 practitioners including trades-people, professionals and managers. The first stage introduces the language and concepts of expertise-in-practice to the participants and explored methods of working in dialogue. The second stage works closely with practitioners on their own real world perceptions in a therapeutic and diagnostic manner using a critical dialogue technique. The final stage involves exploring with groups of practitioners how such techniques can be used to develop the company processes.

Construction is a rich environment displaying the use of “expertise-in-context” at a variety of levels in very intense and unique situations. It is in exploring this that we believe there is value to individuals and to the companies that we are working with. The fact that construction is often presented as not operating effectively gives the project and construction an additional challenge. Those operating in it mostly do not actively seek failure and believe that they are performing a good job. Practice is based on this knowledge of the world, however, practitioners are continually being told to modify their knowledge and thinking to change practice in construction. Everyone knows it is not that simple but we continually pretend that it is. The problems with construction industry do not lie in the practices themselves but in the conventional expression and analysis of what these difficulties are. Improving practice requires a different kind of expression and analysis with expertise-in-context based language and concepts providing this as they align with actual practice. The therapeutic and diagnostic application of these ideas in a Wittgenstein and fashion can release practice from its self imposed conceptual problems.
