Flanagan Roger, Norman George. Risk Management and Construction

Blackwell Science, 1993. — 228 p. — ISBN-13: 978-0632028160; ISBN-10: 0632028165.The construction industry is subject to more risk and uncertainty than perhaps any other industry. Yet, surprisingly, managerial techniques used to identify, analyse and respond to risk were not applied in the industry until the 80's. Existing texts deal with the theoretical concepts of risk and the techniques that identify and manage it. This book provides a set of tools that enable these management techniques to be put into practice in the construction industry.
