Construction Site Management and Labor Productivity Improvement:
How to Improve the Bottom Line and Shorten the Project Schedule
provides common-sense management practices that are easy to
implement to avoid events leading to productivity and schedule
degradation. With more than 70 years of combined experience, Thomas
and Ellis have monitored more than 200 active construction projects
measuring labor productivity, calculating losses of productivity,
and documenting the events leading to those losses. The book is
divided into four parts and contains around 100 practices for
improving construction performance. Part 1 describes the commonly
recurring causes of site inefficiency. Part 2 provides a
straightforward planning procedure and a simple procedure for
developing an efficient site layout plan. Part 3 covers weather
mitigation, material management, workforce management, sequencing,
congestion, and subcontractor management. Part 4 addresses schedule
acceleration, environmental compliance, and project evaluation.
Each practice is explained in detail so that it can be correctly
applied and the expected outcome is clear. The practices are
illustrated with case studies and numerous photographs. Written
primarily for practicing engineers and contractors, these ""how
to"" practices can be readily implemented to efficiently manage
site operations of all sizes.
