The authoritative industry guide on good practice for
planning and scheduling in construction
This handbook acts as a guide to good practice, a text to
accompany learning and a reference document for those needing
information on background, best practice, and methods for practical
application.
A Handbook for Construction Planning & Scheduling
presents the key issues of planning and programming in scheduling
in a clear, concise and practical way. The book divides into four
main sections: Planning and Scheduling within the Construction
Context; Planning and Scheduling Techniques and Practices; Planning
and Scheduling Methods; Delay and Forensic Analysis. The authors
include both basic concepts and updates on current topics demanding
close attention from the construction industry, including planning
for sustainability, waste, health and safety and Building
Information Modelling (BIM).
The book is especially useful for early career practitioners –
engineers, quantity surveyors, construction managers, project
managers – who may already have a basic grounding in civil
engineering, building and general construction but lack extensive
planning and scheduling experience. Students will find the website
helpful with worked examples of the methods and calculations for
typical construction projects plus other directed learning
material.
This authoritative industry guide on good practice for planning
and scheduling in construction is written in a direct, informative
style with a clear presentation enabling easy access of the
relevant information with a companion website providing additional
resources and learning support material.
