Description

The complete guide to building systems and successful project integration Building Systems for Construction Managers presents a comprehensive look at mechanical systems from the decision-maker's perspective, with complete guidance on design, costs, scheduling, quality assurance, and more.

Individual coverage allows for system-specific guidance, and the examinations of each system's design dovetails with discussions on quality assurance and project integration.

Photographs and drawings throughout clarify system structures and complex considerations, and case studies show how construction professionals handle system-related challenges in real-world projects.

Each chapter concludes with a series of exercises to reinforce the material, and help you consolidate the many issues at hand into a professional body of knowledge.

Successfully incorporating building systems into a construction project requires a deep familiarity with their design, installation, costs, timelines, and more.

This book provides in-depth guidance on all aspects of the major systems to help construction professionals keep the project on-time and on-budget.
