Maximizes construction success with practical guidance on managing emerging technologies in the AEC industry
In a rapidly evolving industry, effective management of construction technology is no longer optional - it is essential. Managing Construction Technology: People, Process, and Product delivers the insights and frameworks necessary to navigate the complex landscape of digital innovation in the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) fields. Emphasizing the need for a holistic approach that focuses on process improvements alongside technology deployment, the book guides readers through evaluating, implementing, and optimizing both existing and emerging technologies, including BIM, VDC, robotics, and AR/VR.
Written by a team of experienced industry professionals, Managing Construction Technology offers actionable strategies to enhance efficiency, productivity, and sustained success. Step by step, the authors equip AEC stakeholders with tools to assess the cost-benefit balance of technology investments, craft systems for ongoing evaluation, and foster collaboration across project teams. Throughout the book, detailed management principles and diverse case studies help readers gain a comprehensive understanding of digital transformation tailored to various project types and organizational structures.

Dateiformat: PDFKopierschutz: Adobe-DRM (Digital Rights Management)
Systemvoraussetzungen:
Das Dateiformat PDF zeigt auf jeder Hardware eine Buchseite stets identisch an. Daher ist eine PDF auch für ein komplexes Layout geeignet, wie es bei Lehr- und Fachbüchern verwendet wird (Bilder, Tabellen, Spalten, Fußnoten). Bei kleinen Displays von E-Readern oder Smartphones sind PDF leider eher nervig, weil zu viel Scrollen notwendig ist. Mit Adobe-DRM wird hier ein „harter” Kopierschutz verwendet. Wenn die notwendigen Voraussetzungen nicht vorliegen, können Sie das E-Book leider nicht öffnen. Daher müssen Sie bereits vor dem Download Ihre Lese-Hardware vorbereiten.
Bitte beachten Sie: Wir empfehlen Ihnen unbedingt nach Installation der Lese-Software diese mit Ihrer persönlichen Adobe-ID zu autorisieren!
