An increase in urban development/re-development and difficult soil conditions are demanding increased attention in design to manage the risks associated with construction staging and sequencing and the potential impacts to cost and schedule. Numerical tools represent an ideal approach to managing and addressing these challenging demands and aid decision makers in selecting among alternatives. The authors have provided a detailed and comprehension text for practitioners and researchers alike. Successfully covering topics from material models and mathematical analysis relevant to engineering applications provide the reader insight to the proper use of these tool s from understanding of the theory through their practical use in the field. -Conrad W.
