Construction Planning and Technology, 2nd Edition (PDF)

by Rajiv Gupta

The book js a supplementary to the course in which all the building materials components of a building (doors windows finish staircase etc.) are taught. The author feels that these components can be understood if one goes through them. This is the reason for not including these topics in this book. These topics can be found in any book dealing with construction and building materials. In the text Costing and Estimation is covered in chapter one which is the first phase of planning to execute a project. After estimation CPM or PERT networks can be drawn with proper duration of the activities involved. Once network is prepared resource levelling can be done.
