Contents:

1. The professional approach to management of the whole building process -- 2. New ground rules for common sense -- 3. Organization for professional construction management -- 4. Anatomy of a project -- 5. Clients: public and private -- 6. Contracts and proposals -- 7. Computers in perspective -- 8. Participating options of small professional firms.

Summary: The whole professional field of architecture and engineering has been helping me write this book for many years. For almost two decades of journalism in the mechanical engineering field and another one for Architectural Record, I have been granted literally hundreds of interviews by thoughtful and articulate practitioners. To all of these, my deepest thanks. The converging forces of time and urgency that focus now upon the need for professional construction management as a definable set of ideas have been keenly perceived and eloquently described by a host of those practitioners. Robert F. Hastings has crystalized many of those ideas in his writings and, as president of AlA, sparked the project of this book in January of this year.
