Abstract

Cost control of construction projects is to minimize all kinds of consumptions and achieve the predetermined cost target using necessary technology and management measures without affecting the predetermined construction pe-riod and quality. The control measures include organizational measures, tech-nical measures and economic measures. The control process includes construc-tion project cost estimation, cost planning and implementation, cost accounting, cost analysis etc. The control methods include target control, dynamic control, comprehensive control and key control. This talk discusses the cost control of highway construction projects.
