Management of Construction Projects is a highly illustrated series of case studies based on seven live construction management projects, demonstrating the very practical nature of managing projects. The detailed case studies cover a variety of construction projects, varying in value from £1million to £117 million, including a major inner city office block, a portal framed factory unit, a university refurbishment project, a superstore and car park, and a new school building. The case studies emphasise detailed onsite management procedures and identify a predominantly functional approach to managing projects. A number of related chapters covering practical and theoretical aspects of construction management support and illustrate the individual case studies UR - https://ndl.iitkgp.ac.in/result?q={%22t%22:%22search%22,%22k%22:%22Construction%20management%20%26%20planning%22,%22s%22:[%22DDC=\%22600%3A%3ATechnology\%22%22],%22b%22:{%22filters%22:[]}} ER -
