Professional Construction Management

by Donald S. Barrie

Professional Construction Management,Third Edition,builds upon the success of the first two editions that offered a practical,in-depth approach to the major engineering and management techniques. The revision is expanded and made more balanced to better explain the traditional general contracting and design-construct approaches,and to emphasize the newly evolving program management approach to the successful execution of construction projects. Its value to the working professional results from the dual authorship that combines over 40 years of industry practice and professional leadership. The book's excellent examples are first-hand,and its knowledge and recommendations are based on proven experience. Rather than simply outlining the basic theoretical principles,it adds the practical details and advice that better prepares readers to apply their knowledge in today's real and complex construction working environment.
