Beginning Construction - 15th Edition

A. Turhan Uyaroğlu, who has 58 years of experience in the construction sector as a project manager, site manager, and executive, aims to introduce important elements, concepts, and functions related to the construction sector to "construction professionals" in his book "İNŞAATA BAŞLARKEN" (When Starting Construction). The book provides detailed information, accompanied by tables and graphs, covering topics that should be taught in schools during technical education, as well as situations that may be encountered during construction application processes.

A. Turhan Uyaroğlu explains why construction professionals should acquire the information provided in the book to adequately perform and manage their jobs: “The two important elements of success are knowledge and experience. There is no end to either of these accumulations. What is taught in education, if not reinforced with conscious applications, will be forgotten and wasted. Uninformed attempts, on the other hand, often result in error. The path to success is through numerous applications with the necessary knowledge. "İnşaata Başlarken" has been written to remind readers of what is taught during the education process, as well as to convey information that is not taught, but ‘gained from other sources or through experience.' Every line in the book is the product of bittersweet memories. I hope readers perceive what is written as useful information to learn in the process of building structures. My advice to all readers, young and old, is to review this book once to learn its content, check their old knowledge, and when the time comes, reread the necessary sections to benefit from them.”
