An expanded and updated third edition of this bestselling text provides the reader with the basics on what it takes to design, develop, and construct our buildings and neighborhoods.

Why contractors should avoid some jobs and how to get the right ones

How to develop cost estimates and schedules, and why they are central to project success
Why different types of construction contracts carry different levels of risk
How a contractor can bring in a job on time and on budget

How the growing emphasis on sustainability and climate resiliency impacts the construction industry

Plus much, much more:

Codes, standards, and zoning
Alternative project delivery methods
