Description:	The purpose of this book is to examine the development of quality management systems applied to the construction industry in Hong Kong and other parts of the world. The main emphasis, of course, is based on Hong Kong experience, because at present Hong Kong plays a leading role in construction quality management in the world. Readers will understand how QC (quality control) practice was replaced by QA (quality assurance) concept, and then how the QA concept is being superseded by the TQM (total quality management) philosophy. All the tools and techniques used which are related to construction quality management are discussed in detail throughout the 12 chapters in this book.
