Construction Project Management for RED HORSE Troop Training Projects

Abstract

This master's thesis is a study in construction project management for United States Air Force RED HORSE squadrons. The objective of the study is to design a construction project control system for troop training projects based on successful control practices of the civilian construction industry that can be adapted for military use. RED HORSE is military acronym for Rapid Engineer Deployable, Heavy Operational Repair Squadron, Engineer. These 400-man units provide the Air Force with a heavy construction and repair capability that is highly mobile, rapidly deployable, and self-sufficient in a combat environment. RED HORSE squadrons accomplish a number of small road, building, and utility construction projects in peacetime as part of their war skills training program.
