Professional construction management

Written as a textbook, this volume covers the material typically found in a first course on construction management. It also contains enough depth and supplementary content to support a more advanced course. Its central concerns are how projects are organized, the contractual arrangements that govern them, and the planning and control systems that keep them on track.

This revised edition expands the discussion of the industry's commercial side, including a dedicated section on business practices in professional construction management. Major engineering and management techniques are explained in detail and with a practical focus, making the book useful to both students and working professionals.
