ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The construction industry is a unique collection of planners, design professionals, manufacturing firms, and tradespeople. The success of the industry is a testimonial of the combined expertise of these individuals and firms. Principles and Practices of Commercial Construction is only made possible by the contributions, direct or indirect, of every segment of the industry. Organizations such as the Portland Cement Association, the American Concrete Institute, and the Canadian Institute of Steel Construction were instrumental in providing current and relevant information. As with any good construction project, this text was started with an excellent foundation. I wish to especially acknowledge the contributions of the late Cameron Andres and the late Ronald Smith for constructing the foundation of this text from which they have allowed me to build. My sincere gratitude to all the people at Pearson for their expertise and unwavering effort over the years in the publishing of Principles and Practices of Commercial Construction and a continuing thank you to the project management team and editors at Pearson, who kept the whole process running smoothly during the production of this edition. I would also like to thank the reviewers, Daniel Castro-Lacouture from the Georgia Institute of Technology; William Dean from The State University of New York, College of Technology at Alfred; and Jeff Guh from the University of Southern California for their review and comments that made the tenth edition improved"
