Applied Cost Engineering

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This thoroughly rewritten and updated third edition offers comprehensive coverage of cost engineering, emphasizing capital projects and focusing on both estimating and cost control. Maintaining and enhancing the style of presentation that made the previous editions so popular, Applied Cost Engineering, Third Edition furnishes an entirely new and cost-effective approach to estimating and controlling contingency, a new chapter on systems and computer applications, a new chapter on bulk material control, expanded coverage of the factors that affect estimate accuracy, an introduction to the novel concept of estimate and schedule classification, additional end-of-text case studies, and much more.
