Download Construction Projects Scheduling And Control Third Edition By Saleh Mubarakn Easily In PDF Format For Free.
This Is The Third Edition Of Construction Project Scheduling And Control. I Am Very Pleased With Its Continuous Success. The Book Has Become Popular Throughout The World, Both In Paper And In Digital Form. I Continuously Receive Correspondence Comments, Suggestions, Requests For Instructional Materials (Instructor Support Materials Including An Instructor Manual And PowerPoints.
Was So Happy And Proud When The Language Editor (Of The First Edition) Corrected Me Regarding An Activity’s Total Float In An Example In The Book. She Had No Technical Background But Had Learned The Critical Path Method While Linguistically Reviewing My Book!

Although I Was Very Happy And Content With The Way The Book Came Out And Was Received, I Believe There Is No Such Thing As The Perfect Human Product.

There Are Just Different Ways Of Doing Things. However, In A Project Management Team, All Must Sing Together In Harmony With One Common Tune—What A Challenge! Keep In Mind, Our Field Is An Empirical, Not An Exact, Science! Believe It Or Not, I Enjoy Every Minute Of This “Clash Of Cultures.” I Think Of It Like This: “One Cubic Meter Of Concrete Mix: $100; One Ton Of Steel: $600; One Workday With 30 Different Nationalities: Priceless!” This Edition Contains Many Additions In Almost Every Chapter And Part Of The Book. One New Chapter (Chapter 15) Has Been Added On “Building Information Modeling (BIM) And Scheduling.
