Good resource for me!

I'm employed as Project Manager for a company which fabricates and erects steel framed commercial buildings. When I first began this job, many administrative processes were less-than-ideal. Chapter 17 covers Safety quite well. We have made changes to our documents and breifings which replicate the guidelines within this book! I found Chapter 3 helpful. Change Orders are explained well enough for my needs. Chapter 7 is titled, Project Scheduling. I'd hoped to learn about features and use of common software scheduling programs but instead rec'd a chapter of fairly useless math calculations and symbols which are largley irrelevant in 2007. Hey, software is the way to go! In summary, I found this book to be well written and organized. I doubt it can be PERFECT for each and every Construction Manager but I'm glad this resource is on my shelf!

An excellent guide for a construction engineer

This book have excellents concepts about the construction industry. I found a lot of examples like cost control systems, construction codes, change orders and budgets. The most important thing is how the book tide all this concepts and give you an idea of the entire situation
