I’m talking mostly about huge, designer buildings or skyscrapers that take a team of architects and years of experience to design. How are then the construction workers, who, in my narrow-minded world do not necessarily have to be very educated, able to synchronize in such a way that everyone knows exactly what to do to turn the architects’ plans into reality, and in such a short time?

Generally a single company is hired to do the overall site management. They set the schedule, organize the sub-contractors, manage deliveries of materials, and do everything else it takes to make sure construction proceeds. Each individual sub-contracting company will have their piece of the project schedule and plans provided to them, and then they break that out into individual tasks for their teams of workers. So when you show up to the site with your tools you know what your job is for that day/week, but you don’t need to know the entire project plan.
