It shows not only what needs to be done, but how to do it. In addition to the many examples that illustrate procedures, the book includes over 25 case studies, each one addressing a specific theme.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKey topics, such as: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eproject selection\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003enegotiations\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eplanning and scheduling\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ecost and budgeting\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eproject control\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ecommunications \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ehuman resources\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eenvironmental impacts\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003erisk management\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003efinancial evaluation\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eare discussed in project simulations based on real-life situations from a diversity of fields, using a step-by-step approach.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBeginning at the grassroots level, some cases are solved by hand to illustrate the mechanics of a procedure, while others are solved using advanced computer programs. In this way the reader has a clear idea of the problem, how and when to raise the issue, information needed (and who can provide it), how to solve it by hand, when possible, and also its resolution using the latest informatics tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe author has over 30 years of experience in project management in different countries, working on both large-scale projects with major companies worldwide and with urban\/regional planners on local projects. He has written more than 15 books on different facets of engineering, lectured in over 80 technical courses and spoken at numerous international conferences. His engineering experience in large undertakings in such fields as hydro-electricity, mining, the environment, and urban planning provides the reader with a wealth of knowledge on the practical side of project management.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book will be of interest to students in engineering, professionals in the field of project management and project consultants.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45274239959191,"sku":"9789400792388","price":7345.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9789400792388.webp?v=1769279322","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/project-management-for-environmental-construction-and-manufacturing-engineers-a-manual-for-putting-theory-into-practice-9789400792388","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
