520 _a"Construction refers to any project that involves coming up with a design for a structure at a certain location, and then putting together all the different elements to build that structure. Construction projects fall into three broad categories: Buildings and houses, Public works, Industrial projects. Construction is an ancient human activity. It began with the purely functional need for a controlled environment to moderate the effects of climate. Constructed shelters were one means by which human beings were able to adapt themselves to a wide variety of climates and become a global species. Construction scheduling organizes activities and their sequence in a construction project. It's a project management process that acts as a blueprint for how the project will be executed. It not only organizes the activities and tasks but the overall timeframe for the project, including milestones. Project scheduling tools are used to help managers organize and execute their project's tasks and resources within a given budget. This book helps students learn the processes, tools, and techniques used to make projects run smoothly, with expert guidance toward the realities of this complex function"-- Back cover.
