註釋
Construction projects can and should be routinely successful. This book guides building professionals in the commercial building industry - building owners and managers, facility managers, designers, project managers, superintendents, foremen, and lenders and insurers - to achieve this success. The first part of the book defines how to obtain useable facts that permit communication and analysis. Tools to manage clear observations, measurement, precision, bias, and the impact of time on construction information and decisions are presented, and solutions provided. Then an organizational structure for these fact is presented. The second part of the book provides the tools to define a project that can be made to succeed. Tools to evaluate and balance 1. product( including grade of material and essential features), 2. cost, and 3. time( of project start, execution, and completion) all at once are provided. Then the project management tools of estimating, scheduling, productivity, and people and site management are defined in workable terms. The third part of the book provides a managerial understanding of the technical aspects of construction:materials, structures, soils, concrete, masonry, life safety systems, plumbing, HVAC, and electrical. A little theory about why things work, a description of how things are done and why, and common misconceptions, problems, and solutions are presented for each work item. Management results are the focus - knowing what to do, who to hire, and how to manage them to achieve success.
