+Frank B. Gilbreth's multiple construction companies created at least 100 large-scale projects over its span of about fifteen years. This list is likely incomplete and there may be many more minor projects that have escaped discoverable records, including six references that have not been resolved.
+  * //<color blue>Note: the numbering system here is completely arbitrary and used only for convenience and organization of this material. There may be any number of anomalies of actual chronology and undocumented projects. I am also attempting to reorder the projects from time to time as more accurate dates and timelines are discovered.</color>//

+<color red>**Table renumbering and restructuring in progress**. Cross-reference lists may not be fully updated. New table numbering is likely to be final, with further added entries using insert numbering.</color>
