  Global Reconstruction 2026: From CAD Scales to City-Scale Recovery As I sat at my desk this morning looking at a set of maps, I couldn't help but reflect on the sheer scale of what is happening globally. In my world, we talk about 1:50 scales and the precision of a 0.5mm technical pen . But in Ukraine, Israel, and Iran , the "scale" of construction required over the next decade is almost unfathomable.
