When you decide to build your own home, it is generally best to do so through a licensed general contractor. ... Yet very few people are qualified to act as their general contractor (GC). Building a house requires you to pull together many strings and make sure that they coordinate in myriad ways.

This book has chapters on Planning and Preliminary Design, Construction Meetings, Final Design, Scheduling, Permitting, Insurance, Project Safety, Contract Documents, Change Orders, The Contractor, Using Competition to drive down costs, Construction Materials, The Construction Phase, Cost Estimating, and Construction Management firms. This book was written as a result of the experiences the author (a mechanical engineer with over 20 years of industrial and commercial construction management experience) had while managing the construction of his new home in Seattle. He found that the rules of the industrial construction world do not apply to the world of home construction.
