Abstract

No abstract included; extract from Introduction: [The purpose is] (1) to develop the technique of measuring the extent of site control of the building operations exercised by the full-time site manager. (2) to study one of the organisational inputs which is the experience, judgement, wisdom and skill of the man (sic) in charge on the building site in order to develop indices of performance. (3) to devise an index of operational control based on the fluctuation in the labour force employed on the site. Finally, to incorporate the indices into a model of building site activity with a view to studying the problems arising on the building site and make suitable recommendations.
