Mason’s guide maps out the work and knowledge areas associated with construction project management, from project-manager responsibilities and safety standards to scheduling, budgeting, contracts, and risk management. It introduces the Critical Path Method, resource leveling, and time-and-cost relationships, then uses three different projects to explore distinctions in construction means and methods. The book also addresses technology in the construction industry and includes a glossary of more than 250 construction terms.
