Building Project Management: A Practical Guide to Planning and Scheduling is written by Dr. Reza Foroughi, an associate professor of Building Sciences, to support students and emerging professionals who need to learn not only the principles of project management but also how to apply planning and scheduling methods in real construction environments.
This book is designed specifically for courses focused on construction planning and scheduling within construction management, construction engineering, and related programs. It emphasizes practical, application-driven learning, focusing on the tools, techniques, and workflows practitioners routinely use to plan, schedule, monitor, and control building projects. Rather than presenting project management as an abstract managerial function, the material connects core concepts directly to construction sequencing, logic development, resource constraints, and schedule-based coordination, skills that are essential for professional practice. Kendall Hunt publishes this book, and it is available at the Appalachian State University Bookstore or online.
