3.0 out of 5 stars Review of Basic Estimating for Construction, Second Edition, November 6, 2006

T & S (Marysville, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Basic Estimating for Construction (2nd Edition) (Spiral-bound)
This book is ok. It can be hard to search for information that you need to in class. I think the book should be broke down more into sub sections.
