Megascale engineering (or macro-engineering) [1] is a form of exploratory engineering concerned with the construction of structures on an enormous scale. [2] Typically these structures are at least 1,000 km (620 mi) in length—in other words, at least one megameter, hence the name. Such large-scale structures are termed megastructures .

In a megastructural project, orders and hierarchies are created with large and ...
