This book provides a step-by-step guidance on how to implement analytical methods in project risk management. The text focuses on engineering design and construction projects and as such is suitable for graduate students in engineering construction or project management as well as practitioners aiming to develop improve and/or simplify corporate project management processes. The book places emphasis on building data-driven models for additive-incremental risks where data can be collected on project sites assembled from queries of corporate databases and/or generated using procedures for eliciting experts judgments. While the presented models are mathematically inspired they are nothing beyond what an engineering graduate is expected to know: some algebra a little calculus a little statistics and especially undergraduate-level understanding of the probability theory. The book is organized in three parts and fourteen chapters. In Part I the authors provide the general introduction to risk and uncertainty analysis applied to engineering construction projects. The basic formulations and the methods for risk assessment used during project planning phase are discussed in Part II while in Part III the authors present the methods for monitoring and (re)assessment of risks during project execution.
