Opis

Using extensive case studies for illustration, this is a practitioner's guide to an entirely new production system for construction management that uses flowline scheduling.
Covering the entire process of presenting a comprehensive management system - from design, through measurement, scheduling, and visualization and control - its emphasis is on reducing cost and increasing quality.
Bringing its components together into a management system, "Location-Based Management System in Construction" not only includes theory and explanations of how and why it works, but also examines and presents a suite of methods for successful project implementation.
Perfect as a how-to guide for researchers and advanced construction students to discover the simple application of the new techniques, and invaluable for acquiring the practical tools for planning and controlling projects.
