Produktinformationen zu „Modern Construction Management (ePub)“
This new edition of a core undergraduate textbook for construction
managers reflects current best practice, topical industry
preoccupations and latest developments in courses and fundamental
subjects for students.
While the construction process still requires traditional
skills, changes over recent decades today demand improved
understanding of modern business, production and contractual
practices. The authors have responded accordingly and the
book has undergone a thorough re-write, eliminating some of the
older material and adding new processes now considered essential to
achieving lean construction. Particular emphasis is given, for
example, to supply chains and networks, value and risk management,
BIM, ICT, project arrangements, corporate social responsibility,
training, health and welfare and environmental sustainability.
Modern Construction Management presents construction as a
socially responsible, innovative, carbon-reducing,
manager-involved, people-orientated, crisis-free industry that is
efficient and cost effective. The overall themes for the Seventh
Edition are:
* Drivers for efficiency: lean construction underpinning
production management and off-site production methods.
* Sustainability: reflecting the transition to a low
carbon economy.
* Corporate Social Responsibility: embracing health &
safety, modernistic contracts, effective procurement, and
employment issues.
* Building Information Management: directed towards
the improvement of construction management systems.
The comprehensive selection of worked examples, based on real
and practical situations in construction management and methods
will help to consolidate learning. A companion website at href="http://www.wiley.com/go/MCM7">www.wiley.com/go/MCM7 offers
invaluable support material for both tutors and students:
* Solutions to the self-learning exercises
* PowerPoint slides with discussion topics
* Journal and web references
Structured to reflect site, business and corporate
responsibilities of managers in construction, the book continues to
provide strong coverage of the salient elements required for
developing and equipping the modern construction manager with the
competencies and skills for both technical and business related
areas.
