Resilience: An Engineering & Construction Perspective

Resilience: An Engineering & Construction Perspective reflects my continued research and work on the challenges of large scale engineering & construction programs. At one level, this book considers a special type of such a program, namely the recovery following what I have termed an "event of scale" reflecting the fact that these events may be both manmade as well as natural in origin. At a deeper level, it reflects my observations from witnessing the good, bad and ugly of large scale disaster response and recovery efforts from an engineering & construction perspective. This second perspective was initially built not by design, but rather by happenstance and circumstance, but continues to intersect my professional life to this date. 9781329195424 1329195426 237 BOOK Technology & Engineering http://books.google.com/books/content?id=z-eaCgAAQBAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=5&edge=curl&source=gbs_api http://books.google.com/books/content?id=z-eaCgAAQBAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=1&edge=curl&source=gbs_api en 9781329195424
