Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Hi, I have 15 years of project management experience and 12 years as a turnaround scheduler and scheduling manager on a large oil refinery.

Thanks for the advice, predictably there is a fair bit of study ahead of me!

Hi James

In my opinion anything by AACE is unreadable.

The art of delay anlysis is changing rapidly and all the old textbooks are rapidly becoming invalid.

The new kid on the block is BIM4 or maybe even BIM5 so my advice is get to grips with that first and then develope your delay analysis skills.

You will then be ahead of the game and us old relics paths will become critical.

Good luck

Best regards

Mike Testro

I beleive AACEi Forensic Scheduling RP 2011 edition (latest) is the most comprehensive and usefull material out there. 

The RP number is 29R-03.

You can download it from AACEi website.
