The construction site

Roles, documents, procedures and project management for engineering and architecture

Edizioni Glyphe · first edition, September 2026

Anyone arriving on site from university knows how to size a beam and draw a dimensioned plan. On the first day they discover the questions are different: who signs this document, what happens if nobody signs it, how do we know whether we are behind schedule. The book answers those questions, treating public and private contracts in parallel without confusing the two.

Inside the book
  • The roles on site: who does what and who signs
  • The documents, from the detailed design to handover, with the procedures that link them
  • Applied project management: work breakdown structure, programme, progress control
  • Public and private contracts treated in parallel
  • Four accompanying worksheets, ready to use on site
