Descrição do livro
Every construction project must answer the same handful of governing questions: what is being built, in what sequence, at what cost, and how will the people responsible know something has gone wrong before it becomes expensive to fix. Construction project management sits at an uncomfortable intersection. It borrows the vocabulary and quantitative tools of general project management — critical path scheduling, earned value analysis, risk registers — yet operates in an environment general project-management theory did not originally anticipate: a fixed, unrepeatable piece of ground; a temporary coalition of independent firms with different financial interests; a product that, once built, cannot be recalled or quietly patched. Many people responsible for these projects end up piecing the discipline together from scattered sources — a scheduling manual, a safety handbook, a contracts primer — each covering its own slice in isolation, with nothing connecting the estimating desk to the jobsite trailer to the owner's boardroom. This comprehensive, sixteen-chapter guide builds construction project management as one connected, cumulative discipline instead of a set of disconnected topic summaries. Each chapter builds directly on the vocabulary and techniques established earlier, works through fully explained numerical examples, and closes with practice problems and a complete answer key, so a reader who works through the book in sequence accumulates a genuinely connected understanding of how a project is planned, priced, scheduled, controlled, and delivered. Inside, readers will be able to: • Compare project delivery methods and contract types and match them to an owner's risk tolerance and schedule pressure. • Build a cost estimate from quantity takeoff through markup and contingency, and work complete forward-pass and backward-pass critical path calculations, including resource leveling, schedule compression, and full earned value forecasting. • Convert an awarded estimate into a working control budget and decompose a cost variance into its quantity, price, and productivity components before it becomes a crisis. • Structure a competitive bid and subcontractor buyout process, and build a safety program around the hazard categories behind most serious incidents. • Run a submittal and quality-nonconformance process, and build and score a project risk register using both qualitative and quantitative methods. • Apply a working vocabulary for model-based project coordination, change-order and delay-claim documentation, and a defensible project closeout sequence. The book moves from the industry's structure and contractual foundations through estimating and cost engineering, critical path and advanced scheduling, cost control and budget management, procurement and subcontractor management, safety, quality, and risk management, site logistics, project technology, claims and contract administration, and project closeout, sustainability, and the trends reshaping the profession. Its back matter consolidates a full glossary, a cost-estimating and unit-price reference, a scheduling and earned-value formula reference, a symbols and abbreviations summary, quick-reference field checklists, and a complete index. This book is written for construction management and engineering students building a foundation before their first internship, project engineers moving from field observation into planning and control responsibility, and practicing project managers and superintendents who want one coherent, dependable reference connecting every stage of a construction project. Begin building a clearer, more connected understanding of construction project management with a guide structured around the way the work actually unfolds, from the first feasibility study to the final closeout report — get your copy and start working through it chapter by chapter.
