Raising capital and managing liquidity. 330 3 $aThe world of construction is intrinsically linked with that of finance, from the procurement and tendering stage of projects right through to valuation of buildings. In addition to this, things like administrations, liquidations, mergers, take-overs, buy-outs and floatations affect construction firms as they do all other companies. This book is a rare explanation of common construction management activities from a financial point of view. While the practical side of the industry is illustrated here with case studies, the authors also take the time to build up an understanding of balance sheets and P&L accounts before explaining how common tasks like estimating or valuation work from this perspective. Readers of this book will not only learn how to carry out the tasks of a construction cost manager, quantity surveyor or estimator, they will also understand the financial logic behind them, and the motivations that drive senior management. This is an essential book for students of quantity surveying or construction management, and all ambitious practitioners. 606 $aConstruction industry$zGreat Britain$xFinance 606 $aConstruction industry$zGreat Britain$xManagement 606 $aConstruction industry$xFinance 606 $aConstruction industry$xManagement 615 0$aConstruction industry$xFinance. 615 0$aConstruction industry$xManagement. 615 0$aConstruction industry$xFinance. 615 0$aConstruction industry$xManagement. 676 $a690.068/1 676 $a690.0681 700 $aHigham$b Anthony.$0866850 701 $aBridge$b Carl$f1963-$01240546 701 $aFarrell$b Peter$f1955-$01240547 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bQCQU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910155117503321 996 $aProject finance for construction$92878013 997 $aUNINA
