Book Description
Excerpt from Cost Keeping and Management Engineering: A Treatise for Engineers, Contractors and Superintendents Engaged in the Management of Engineering Construction This book is intended to assist engineers, contractors and superintendents in reducing construction costs to a minimum. To accomplish this it is necessary to understand the laws or rules of management, and to have daily reports that show the efficiency of the men and machines employed. That there are any scientific laws of management will be denied by many men of the old school, but such a denial cannot be logically maintained. If there is a science of psychology, there must be a science of management, for management is a mental process that follows certain definite laws, obscure and complex at times, but none the less definite when once they are understood. The Farady of the science of engineering management is Mr. Frederick W. Taylor, Past President of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, for he not only perceived and applied certain of the fundamental laws of management, but, in his various papers, and particularly in his presidential address to the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, gave definite verbal form to the laws he had discovered. In a subject so complex it is impossible for any one man to discover all the laws of management. Each student of the subject will be able to add his quota, until, in the course of the next few years, the science of engineering management will become as complete as any of the other younger sciences. We have spoken of the science of management as being a branch of the science of psychology. It is, and it is more. Engineering management involves not only the directing of the human agents engaged in production but the economic application of the forces of nature through the medium of machines. Hence engineering management postulates a knowledge of the physical sciences, and particularly the science of applied mechanics.

Book Description
Excerpt from Construction Cost Keeping and Management: A Treatise for Engineers, Contractors and Superintendents Engaged in the Management of Engineering Construction Construction Cost Keeping and Management has been pre pared in response to the request of the publishers for a second edition of Cost Keeping and Management Engineering. The old book, published in 1909 and reprinted in 1916, can hardly be said to be out of date because it confined itself to principles illustrated by a number Of practical cost keeping forms and methods but in the last twelve years some new principles of what may be justly called the Science of Management have been discovered and a great many new forms and methods have come into use. Therefore we have endeavored, in preparing the pre sent work, to supplement the original material by what has come out in the evolution of the last twelve years, rejecting very little of the Old material. This book, as was stated in the preface to Cost Keeping and Management Engineering, is intended to assist engineers, contractors and superintendents in reducing construction costs to a minimum. To accomplish this it is necessary to understand the laws or rules of management, and to have daily reports that show the efficiency of the men and machines employed. That there are any scientific laws of management will be denied by many men of the old school, but such a denial cannot be logically maintained. If there is a science of psychology, there must be a science of management, for management is a mental process that follows certain definite laws, obscure and complex at times, but none the less definite when once they are understood. Many an ordinary foreman possesses a fair working knowledge of applied mechanics, having acquired it by observation and experiment; but such a foreman would be far more efficient as a manager if he also had a grasp of the theory of the principles that he applies.
