This first edition of Construction Management Fundamentals is general in terms of individual construction process activities and comprehensive in terms of construction fundamentals (get work, do work, keep score). This is a comprehensive new text for the emerging Construction Fundamentals course taught to non-construction engineering and architecture majors taking only one or two construction courses. These students are not majoring in construction and have very little knowledge of the construction industry, construction processes, or how projects are executed.

Construction management is about controlling time, cost, quality, and safety, and acting in a socially, politically, and environmentally acceptable manner. Undergraduate non-construction majors and graduate Construction Management students need a general, yet comprehensive, text that covers the fundamentals of construction so that they may operate within the aforementioned parameters. 
The first edition of Construction Management Fundamentals gives students a solid understanding of construction so that, as designers and constructors, they will be better prepared to make intelligent design decisions and to interact in a meaningful and productive manner. For those students who may take only one or two construction courses, the material is covered in a logical, simple, and concise format.

The Seventh Edition of Construction Planning, Equipment, and Methods, follows in the footsteps of the previous editions by providing the reader with the fundamentals of machine utilization and production estimating in a logical, simple, and concise format. Our text features expanded coverage of building in today's global environment. Hundreds of photos and illustrations have been added to the seventh edition to make this dynamic text even more accessible to both students and professionals. In addition, since technology is constantly evolving, this text provides an understanding of machine capabilities and how to properly apply those capabilities to construction challenges. 
 The media package includes: Web-based exercises have been added to many chapters to draw attention to the expanding volume of information available over the Internet. The computer monitor icon in the text margin will direct you to the text website (http://www.mhhe.com/engcs/civil/peurifoy). In addition, extensive web resources are provided at the end of every text chapter.

Construction Management Fundamentals is intended as an introduction to both technical and business sides of construction, and is intended for use in an undergraduate Civil Engineering curriculum or for graduate courses in Construction Management. The text covers fundamentals of construction in a logical, simple, and concise format, and many examples reinforce construction and management concepts through applications, photographs, and illustrations derived from actual projects. Based upon professional practice, standard formats for analyzing common problems are presented and explained preparing students for fast-paced bid preparation. The second edition of Construction Management Fundamentals includes coverage of the Construction Specifications Institute’s new MasterFormat 2004 edition, as well as a completely rewritten safety chapter incorporating the latest OSHA required safety practices and reporting practices. The book will help prepare the student who may take one or two courses in construction or the construction management professional.

As the construction industry more frequently uses alternative project delivery methods and performance specifications, implementation, and continuous improvement of quality programs--including those associated with quality management, quality assurance, and quality control--will become increasingly critical to the successful planning, design, delivery, and operation of projects. In Construction Quality in the Alternate Project Delivery Environment, Tara Cavalline, Ph.D., P.E., Dennis Morian, P.E., and Clifford J. Schexnayder, Ph.D., P.E., provide detailed guidance on all aspects of construction quality in the heavy / highway, building, and industrial fields. Topics include quality management, quality assurance, prescriptive versus performance specifications, quality assurance in the design and construction phases, quality control processes, variation and sampling techniques, tools for construction quality improvement, control charts, statistical sampling and percent within limits, benchmarking, and special inspections and acceptance. Engineers, technicians, and construction managers engaged in project design and construction will find this a single source of recommended quality management and quality assurance practices to support the work of engineering professionals when both conventional and APD methods are used.
