Features: Engineering projects have characteristics such as uniqueness and individuality. During implementation, uncertainties may arise at any time, and the achievement of project goals is full of risks. Therefore, as an excellent project manager, one should possess the ability to analyze and respond to risks, using effective methods and means to manage risks and achieve the goals of engineering projects. This book is divided into three parts. The first part primarily introduces the basic theories and methods of engineering project risk analysis, including five chapters: risk identification, risk estimation, risk evaluation, risk decision analysis, and emergency management of incidents; the second part introduces the response to engineering project risks, including three chapters: risk response planning and strategies, insurance, and risk monitoring; the third part is a special topic on risk analysis and response, divided into four chapters, providing a detailed introduction to the analysis and response of engineering financing risks, the evaluation of engineering schedule risks, the "moral hazard" in engineering contract award and its response, as well as the risk analysis of water conservancy and hydropower construction diversion and embankment engineering. This book can be used as a reference for project managers with a certain foundation in engineering project management, engineering consultants, personnel from government engineering management departments, researchers in engineering project management, as well as teachers and students in civil engineering, water conservancy engineering, and project management majors in higher education institutions...
