The second is the great improvement of development benefits. Engineering design, construction level, engineering quality and safety situation, scientific and technological innovation level, and workers' skills are significantly improved. The labor productivity reaches 473,000 yuan per person, an increase of nearly 60 % over 2012. A number of new products, new formats, and new models such as prefabricated buildings, construction robots, and construction industry are initially formed.
