This revised and updated edition of Construction Equipment Managementfills a gap on this subject by integrating both conceptual and hands-on quantitative knowledge on construction equipment into a process that facilitates student learning.

The book first summarizes interdisciplinary concepts that are necessary to ground student's learning on construction equipment management, including both engineering and economics. Following this introduction, the text walks the reader through an array of chapters which cover different types of construction equipment, as well as associated methods of use, before proceeding into the more advanced concept of operation analysis. This allows the book to be used on numerous courses at different levels to prepare graduates to apply skills on construction equipment when planning for a new project, estimating its costs, and monitoring field operations.

Organized around the major categories of construction equipment, including both commercial and heavy civil examples, case studies, and exercises, this textbook will help students develop independence in applying concepts to hands-on scenarios. A companion website provides an instructor manual, solutions, additional examples, lecture slides, figures and diagrams.
