Abstract. Article 1 and 2 combined, if possible?

The building of the pyramids, in approximately 2600 BC., illustrates the oldest project form known in the construction industry. In spite of the industry’s long history, the project form is widely discredited for being the least developed segment, regarding productivity, in the last 50 years. (Source)
