A framework for determining the compensable value of damages due to contamination to wetlands in the Niger delta of Nigeria
Thesis
Akujuru, V. A framework for determining the compensable value of damages due to contamination to wetlands in the Niger delta of Nigeria. (Thesis). University of Salford, ManchesterAbstract
The valuation of any property follows a process which if followed results in a reasonably consistent determination of value. While the valuation of properties usually traded in the market is reasonably rampant and within the everyday pre-oc...

Using visual management to improve transparency in planning and control in construction
Thesis
Brady, D. Using visual management to improve transparency in planning and control in construction. (Thesis). University of SalfordThe principle of transparency is rarely evident on construction sites. Current practice shows that instability in the execution phase is common, where activities, assumed to be feasible, have be rescheduled initiating a chain of further readjustment...
