Overview: Based on a questionnaire study, which includes seventy three project managers representing fifty-one construction projects of varying size, project type (e.g. housing, infrastructure), and contract form, this paper illustrates the project managers possibilities to create and distribute knowledge in and between construction projects.

Furthermore, project managers with little or very large experience make most efforts to create knowledge.
