Autorenporträt

Leon P. Gander has been in the construction industry since he graduated from the University of New South Wales, Australia in 1968. Since 1971, his experience has been in North America, specifically in Vancouver, British Columbia. In 1980 he began operating a consulting practice in the design of electrical services for buildings among other aspects of electrical consulting. He is a Professional Engineer registered with the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of British Columbia. Leon has a keen interest for the inner workings of building construction and in 1999 self-published the first version of this book, which has now been updated for relevance in 2022 and beyond. The perceived need for a knowledge-elevating book resulted from observations made in all-participant construction site meetings where the only person(s) lacking knowledge and experience were the owner and or their representative(s). Yet owners are paying for the construction and when issues arise, they are often required to pay more. It was clear that owners and their representatives deserved much more knowledge about how the building construction process operates and affects their interests.
