Small building works are an established and vital part of the construction economy and account for an increasing proportion of construction output. Small works are frequently understated, yet there can be no doubt that they require professional procurement, organization and management if they are to be successful and cost effective. Whilst the principles involved parallel those of other building activities, the management tools, techniques and procedures must be matched to the particular nature and scale of the work. This book sets out to provide a detailed guide to the principles and practices of small building works management, identifies the issues and problems involved and examines potential solutions.
