Abstract: The article focuses on a detailed feature by Vince Kong, ENR’s Texas and Southeast Editor, about the new JCB manufacturing plant in San Antonio, where the U.K.-based construction equipment company produces loaders, mini excavators, telehandlers, and teleskids for the U.S. market. Kong’s report highlights the plant’s expansion strategy, construction challenges such as clay soil conditions, and the involvement of contractor Joeris General Contractors from early design stages. The coverage combines on-site observations, interviews, and multimedia elements, reflecting ENR’s commitment to immersive, journalistic construction reporting that includes firsthand site visits.
