Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a thorough guide to cost data for engineers and contractors, designed to improve cost estimation, and the organization of forces. The author contends the secrets of successful contract costing are not solely in price books but in the analysis of costs. By including a deta…iled description of methods, machines, and organization used in construction, this book provides the reader with an in-depth understanding of how costs are calculated. It begins with the premise that observed daily output is the key to accurate costing, and outlines several recording methods for measuring daily output of individual workers and teams. The author argues that piecework is not the only way to improve productivity, and that the introduction of record cards alone can increase output significantly. The book provides useful tips and tricks, such as using a mimeograph to print record cards and slide rules to reduce computation time. The author is an advocate for recording all work by timing with the minute hand of a watch, which he believes enables foremen and managers to discover inefficiencies in methods and identify opportunities for improvement. Ultimately, this book offers a wealth of practical advice and real-world examples, making it an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to improve their cost-estimating abilities and gain a competitive edge in the construction industry. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
