Construction Project Management — India Edition is a 290-page field-tested engineering handbook from 3D-LABS — covering the complete lifecycle of construction project management in India: tendering, FIDIC/CPWD contract administration, CPM/PERT scheduling, cost control, and dispute resolution, with case studies from major Indian infrastructure projects. Every concept is backed by worked examples, engineering diagrams, and the exact Indian and international standards you’ll be held to.
Why engineers choose this book
It’s written the way real projects work: no filler, just the scheduling formulas, contract clauses, and decisions an experienced project manager would walk a colleague through — so you can plan it, control it, and deliver it with confidence.
Who is this book for?
Practising civil engineers and project managers, construction-technology teams, contractors, and final-year engineering students and GATE aspirants who want India-relevant, application-first knowledge rather than generic theory.
What format and standards does this book follow?
RIBA/PMBOK-aligned project phases adapted for Indian practice, per CPWD General Specifications (Civil Works), IS 4845:1968 (CPM terminology), FIDIC Red Book 2017, and MoRTH Road and Bridge Works Specifications 5th Revision.
What CPM and Earned Value formulas are used?
Critical path float F = LS-ES = LF-EF. SPI = EV/PV, CPI = EV/AC, EAC = BAC/CPI for cost-at-completion forecasting. Total project duration = longest path (zero-float activities).
What Indian contract and procurement content is included?
CPWD DSR, MoRTH BOQ preparation, GeM e-tendering, RERA Act 2016 obligations, Arbitration and Conciliation Act 1996 for disputes, and ESI/PF compliance under Building and Other Construction Workers Act 1996.
