Produktinformationen zu „Ferry and Brandon's Cost Planning of Buildings (ePub)“
This new edition of the classic quantity surveying
textbook retains its basic structure but has been thoroughly
updated to reflect recent changes in the industry, especially in
procurement.
Although over the last 20 years a number of new procurement
methods have evolved and become adopted, the recession has seen
many clients revert to established traditional methods of
procurement so the fundamentals of cost planning still apply - and
should not be ignored.
The first edition of this leading textbook was published in 1964
and it continues to provide a comprehensive introduction to the
practice and procedures of cost planning in the procurement of
buildings.
This 9th edition has been thoroughly updated to
reflect changes that have occurred in the UK construction industry
in the past six years. Whilst retaining its core structure of the
three-phase cost planning process originally developed by Ferry and
Brandon, the text provides a thorough grounding in contemporary
issues including procurement innovation, whole life cycle costing
and modelling techniques.
Designed to support the core cost planning studies covered by
students reading for degrees in quantity surveying and construction
management, it provides a platform for understanding the
fundamental importance of effective cost planning practice.
The principals of elemental cost planning are covered from both
pre- and post- contract perspectives; the role of effective
briefing and client/stakeholder engagement as best practice is also
reinforced in this text.
This new edition:
* Addresses The Soft Landings Framework (a new govt. initiative,
especially for schools) to make buildings perform radically better
and much more sustainably. Puts focus on actual performance in use
at brief stage, during design and construction, and especially
before and after handover.
* Covers recent changes in procurement, especially under the NEC
and PFI
* Provides more on PPP and long-term maintenance
issues
* Offers an improved companion website with tutorial worksheets
for lecturers
and Interactive spreadsheets for students, e.g. development
appraisal models; lifecycle costing models
