Construction Management Primer

By Jagdish Suman

This is expanded edition (2) of this book. The book follows a sequential arrangement of its chapters similar to the sequence of activities on a construction project. Author is an experienced practicing engineer & mentor, and has managed several projects successfully. And hands on experience gained by the author has been added in the various chapters of this book. And that's what separates this book from other books on this subject. This book is a comprehensive treatment of Construction Management that encompasses all aspects of this vast subject. And makes this book a useful textbook & reference book for students and teachers alike. Most publications deal with just one or more aspects of construction management without providing an overall understanding of construction management in the construction industry. This book is intended to fill this gap by providing an overview of all types of activities and subject matters required in managing a construction project. These items include but not limited to the various contract types, bidding process, change management, conflict resolution, as well as contract negotiations. The various materials & testing and required permits are also discussed. This book can be useful to the teachers and students of Construction Management as well as to managers of financial institutions who finance construction projects. In addition, this book has enough material on offshore engineering to support a three semester hours' worth credit course.
