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.
