Bridging the gap between classical engineering economics and detailed cost estimation and control, this text focuses on the application of fundamental cost-engineering principles in the preliminary capital and operating-cost estimation of major engineering projects. This revised, updated, and expanded edition adds a chapter on the estimating of retrofit and expansion projects in existing, operating plants; and another chapter that provides some reference sources for international cost data. A new bibliography is included and numerous problems and questions have been added. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
