Case Studies in Infrastructure Delivery

This book of case studies is the companion to the author's text, "Principles of Public and Private Infrastructure Delivery". Together, the books are intended to provide a look at how project evaluation, procurement, and packaging are revolutionizing the role of civil engineers in managing collections of infrastructure assets. The case studies provide real-world implementations of the problems presented in the text. Each case study provides a hands-on learning experience, including discussion questions following the narrative. These questions could be used in an instructional setting along with the accompanying CD, or for self-study. This book contains over 45 tables, 20 figures and 100 exhibits. The companion CD-ROM uses Excel (TM) and Adobe (TM) Acrobat (TM) files as an instructional aid. It contains all of the exhibits referenced in the book. In addition, there are files containing additional data to be used in solving the questions presented at the end of each chapter. This book, along with its companion text, "Principles of Public and Private Infrastructure Delivery", introduces students, at both the undergraduate and graduate levels, to definitions of project evaluation.In addition, the set should be a useful reference tool for infrastructure managers throughout the public and private sectors.
