One book of note is by Peter Hessler, the president of Construction Business Associates.

His book fills a niche that has long been empty in the world of power plant construction. It is a collection of all of the important steps, thoughts and processes needed when embarking on any major construction project today, whether a new build or a re-build. It does not tell you how to size a crane for a particular lift, instead it urges you to ask the question: Is a crane even the most cost effective way to make this lift?
