Value and Waste in Lean Construction

Book Overview

This book builds a common understanding of the role and contribution of value-adding activities in achieving stipulated objectives and continuous improvement in construction projects, and contrasts this with what lean construction calls "waste". This international collection seeks to create a paradigm shift, which will shape work processes and future directions for how value is conceptualized and operationalized in both the project management and business aspects of construction.
