This book provides information on some of the studies from the past 30 years on construction productivity and attempts to provide practical guidelines on how these studies may be applied to practical situations. Subjects covered include: labour productivity defined; overtime and shift work; acceleration; the effect of change orders on productivity; productivity losses related to weather; learning curves; project characteristics that affect labour; project management impacts on productivity; nonwage labour costs; measuring productivity; predicting labour productivity losses and the presentation of productivity analyses. Also contains a table of cases.
