This work focuses on the application of fundamental cost engineering principles to the capital and operating costs estimation of major projects. It provides detailed coverage of profitability, risk, and sensitivity analysis. This third edition: discusses novel strategies for calculating preliminary estimates using MasterFormat; presents new information on estimating the retrofitting and extension of existing plants; contains current international cost data; and more.;A solutions manual is available to instructors only.

Explains the engineering profession's codes of ethics using case studies drawn from decisions of the "National Society of Professional Engineers' Board of Ethical Review", examining ethical challenges in engineering, construction, and project management. This title considers the merits and drawbacks of professional codes of ethics.
