Construction Planning Equipment and Methods
by R.L. Peurifoy, Clifford J. Schexnayder, and William B Ledbetter
Published June 1985
Robert Peurifoy was a giant in the field of construction engineering and authored several classic books during his lifetime. "Construction Planning, Equipment, and Methods", sixth edition, deals with a diverse set of construction planning scenarios. Clifford Schexnayder has improved on a classic treatment of the topic by updating, improving, and adding material important to instructors in this area. This sixth edition of "Construction Planning, Equipment, and Methods" has sharpened in focus to concentrate on planning. New methods and data are incorporated throughout with many contemporary examples.
The late Robert Peurifoy was a giant in the field of construction engineering. In this latest edition of one of his many books, computer calculations of costs and of modelling have been added as well as updated statistics, computer related examples and new problems. Civil, environmental and construction management engineering majors and professionals will benefit from having this title on their shelf. The conceptual strengths of the Peurifoy approach and organisation are retained from the previous edition, but the new problems and computer-based examples and new up-to-date construction data make it the only choice in academia or industry.
