Civil Infrastructure Planning, Investment and Pricing Fundamental Concepts for Owners, Engineers, Architects and Builders

Solutions to problems at the end of each chapter are available to instructors.

This book was originally published in 1984 with a focus exclusively on transportation facilities and services. Over the course of time, the book fell out of print and the copyright reverted to the authors. In revising the book for publication on the World Wide Web, we have expanded the scope to include examples and issues relevant to multiple types of civil infrastructure systems. While some of the original focus on transportation facilities remains, we hope that readers interested in other types of infrastructure will find it useful. Moreover, our focus is on fundamentals concepts and principles, which were applicable thirty years ago and will be equally applicable thirty years from now. This book is intended to be a complement to a companion volume available on the Internet addressing the general topic of Project Management for Construction: http://pmbook.ce.cmu.edu/ Both books have an Instructor’s Manual available to instructors with answers to problems at the end of chapters.
