Project Management For Construction Of A Building

Project Plan for ADCO Constructions

ADCO Constructions plans to construct a building in Australia. ADCO Constructions hire a project management team who will assist to construct the building ethically and efficiently. The Project Manager and his team will prepare the project plan. ADCO Constructions and the associated stakeholders will perform the project activities according to the project plan. The primary objective of this project is to prepare a project plan.

1. The construction project planning must identify all the project activities that are required to complete the project successfully. The project plan arranges the project activities in sequential order. The project plan also shows the dependencies that meanwhich activity is dependent on which activity. The project plan demonstrates the start time and the finish time of everyproject activities. Thus every detail of the project can be known from the project plan.
2. The project plan must define the construction methods associated with all the project activities well. The tools and the techniques must be ready all the time so that the construction methods can be carriedout anytime.

iii. The project plan must define the entire budget of the project. Thus the cost of every activity can be known from the project plan. The electric equipment, hardware equipment and can be high and out of range. Proper budget scheduling can assist in cost management. Thus the stakeholders may have to purchase the machinery parts at the relatively high price, but they can optimise the overall budget.

1. The project planning must include the procurement planning for the materials. The project plan prepares a list of resources. They can get to know the resources which have not been usedfor a longer period. The resources which have not been usedfor a longer period may get degraded. The money spent on the resources will be wasted.
2. The construction work must be carriedout efficiently. Therefore, they need to hire and appoint best employees or workers for the project. The workers must have the expertise to work efficiently and must finish the work without any delay. The cost of operation can get reduced by appointing skilled workers for the project.
3. The construction project plan must prepare graphs, bars and charts. All these drawings help to analyse the project activities very clearly. The ongoing project activities can be viewedand analysed well.

vii. The project plan must conduct the financial plan for the entire project. The project may require extra funds to carry out the project activities. They can know the funds or the money required to conduct the project activities pretty early with the help of the project plan. In this way, they can optimise the budget of every activity and the entire project.

viii. The project plan must manage the timeline of the project. The project plan also includes the slack time. From the slack time, it can be calculated that a particular activity can be extended to a certain period.

The project manager and his team are responsible for handing over the building constructing project to the client. The project deliverables contain the list of project activities that will be conducted sequentially. The client can get to know the project activities that they are going to get. In this the case, the client can get to every work activities associated with building construction (Sansakorn & An, 2015). They can know in details the budget for every activity of the project. The client can get to know that for which activity how much money is going to be spent. If the client approves and is willing to pay, the project manager and his team can work on the project. The client and can review the deliverables. In this case, the client can view the scope of the construction department and the schedule of values. The raw materials used for the project can be viewed (Muhwezi, Acai & Otim, 2014). The client can know the raw materials used for constructing the building. The client can know the two important aspects of the project that is the time and the cost. The client can review the contract plans. They can view the contract plans made for the project. The contract plans include the sales agreement, construction agreement, contract specifications for the building and the contract site plan for erecting the building (Jung et al., 2018). The entire contract plan will require about seven weeks to get completed, and the total budget for the project will be around 25 thousand dollars. The documentation review of the project contains the finalising plans, finalising specifications for the building, preparation and entire construction design of the building (Cao et al., 2015). The documentation review will get completed within 8 weeks. The bids and contracts for the project contain the copies of plans, receiving bids and detail review of bids. The bids and contracts also include the sub-contractor agreements, lot-stake out scheduling. The bids and contract must meet the requirements for the sediment control inspection. The bids and contracts for the project will take about thirty-one weeks to complete (Enshassi, Ayash & Mohamed, 2018). It will require about 84 thousand dollars to complete the bids and contracts and receive the permission.

Financial Plan for the Project

Foundation includes the digging footings and installation of reinforcing. It includes several tasks like the inspection of footings, pin footings, pour footings. The builders will put the building blocks. The masons will construct the building using sand, stock, block and mortar (Mancini et al., 2017). After that, the builders will build the waterproofing and the draining tile. The waterproofing tiles and the drain tiles will be built after that. In this way, the structure of the building will be constructed.

Later on, they will build deck frame for the first floor of the building. Later on, the first floor of the building will be constructed (Akomah & Jackson, 2016). The builders will design the deck frame for the second floor after the entire complete budget for the project will be an ion of the first floor. Next, they will build wall floor of the building as well. After finishing work, the basement will be framed. The entire foundation will take around 40 weeks (Kerosuo et al., 2015). The budget of the foundation will be around 74 thousand dollars. The doors and windows will be installed after that preparing the basement of the building.

After the basic foundation is done, the concrete slab will be installed. The builder will install the basement slab of the building. At first, the basement slab is prepared after that the slab will be treated with termite (Tezel et al., 2017). The pest controller is responsible for the termite treatment. The civil engineer, the construction subcontractor and the project manager are responsible for inspecting the slabs of them in details. The concrete slab installation will take about 5 weeks and total cost allocated for the foundation

After concrete slab installation, the mechanical subcontractor will setup HVAC and will form the layout. He will design the layout the will measure the HVAC for the construction (Marzouk & El-Rasas, 2014). The HVAC setup will require about 2 weeks and the budget required to conduct the project is 15 hundred dollars.

The plumber will then set up the plumbing rough-ins and inspection of rough-ins. He will inspect the plumbing rough-ins (Mohd Nawi et al., 2018). The plumbing rough-ins will require about 2 weeks, and it will require a budget of about 12 hundred dollars.

The electric rough-in will be set up by the electric boxes. The electrician is responsible for setting up the electric rough-in and the electric rough-wire. The telephone lines and an alarm signal will be set up by the mechanical subcontractor (Belay, Tekeste & Ambo et al., 2017). This simple setup will take about 1 week, and it will require about 2 thousand dollars. Builder and mason will work on roofing paper, implementation of roof shingles. The roofing will take about 2 weeks’ time and the builder and mason, and it will require a budget of about 4 thousand dollars. The hardware subcontractor and the builder will inspect the BGE Energy, will install the ceramic tiles (Victoria, Perera & Davies, 2016). The construction subcontractor will install hardware in the bathrooms and will install mirrors. The cleaning staff will take the responsibility to clean the building windows. They will conduct the rough cleaning. All these tasks will need about 5 weeks’ time, and it will take around 4 thousand dollars.

Timeline Management for the Project

Finally, the project will be handed over to the client. The entire project will take around 90 weeks to complete. The estimated project cost is around $250,000. The client will have to approve the deliverables (Fung, 2015). If he is satisfied with the deliverables, he will approve the project deadline and the project budget. The project manager and his team start working on the construction project based on the deliverables confirmation from client’s end.

Minister of Public Works sets the technical requirements provisions. All the mentioned technical requirements for the project must be according to the local zoning plan of Australia. The technical requirements of the construction area depend on the following factors- building structure, the things which are related to building design, security, comfort, ability and safety (Hyari, El-Mashaleh & Rababeh, 2015). There are several policies and regulations which maintains the provisions of the technical requirements of the building construction are as follows-

Space

The spaces used for the day-to-day activities will have a direct as well as indirect contact with the air (Kibert, 2016). The spaces will have a direct or indirect impact on natural lighting in sufficient quantities.

A building structure, Building components and the Building materials

The Building strata must be well planned and must be built along with the building structure and the construction components. The construction materials that have been planned to use in for erecting the building must meet the construction requirements (Odimabo, Oduoza & Suresh, 2017). The requirements must comply with the building standards.

Strata Title Completeness

The new building must be provided with the clean water system, gas networks. The construction must be in made in such a way such that the building or the construction area must have proper water drainage system. The construction area must have the proper wastewater drainage system as well (Y?lmaz & Kan?t, 2018). The building must have well-built channels and landfills. The building must have the proper channels installed and landfills. The construction area must have telephone networks installed. The builders must build communication equipment in the building. The building also must have proper transport facility installed. The building must have stairs, escalators and the elevators. Also, the building must have facilities like laundry space (Hu et al., 2016). The builders must keep in mind the safety measures of the building that is why they need to implement lightning rods, alarm system and the tight smoke doors. The project manager and the construction department must ensure the safety of the building that is why they must install fire extinguishers and smoke-tight doors. The buildings also must have the electric generators.

Deliverables for the Client

Strata Title Units

The title units of Strata can be established above or below the land surface. The strata must be placed above the land surface. The Strata title must have a standard size that can be well accounted (Tabassi et al., 2016). The Strata must have a standard size that must be accounted. The Strata Title must fulfil the requirements regarding function and usage. The building construction must be carried out in such a way such that it supports the smoothness and prosperity of the residents in Australia. The project manager will have to ensure that the stakeholders, the workers carry out construction project activities efficiently (Udawatta et al., 2015). It is the responsibility of the project manager and the other stakeholders of the project to ensure that the residents carry out daily activities smoothly.

The project manager and his team members are responsible for looking after the comforts and the luxury of the residents of the building. The project stakeholders must prepare stairs, elevators, hallways so that the customers can perform the daily activities conveniently (Larsen et al., 2015). The dwellers of the buildings require the common facilities like the dimension, quality, capacity and good location, the project manager and his team will have to keep in mind and construct the building according to that.

Density and Layout of the Building

The construction area must be used effectively. The building layout must be prepared in such a way that it ensures the smoothness of the daily activities. The health aspects, ventilation, lighting must be considered to ensure the safety of the residents, building as well as the environment (Senouci, Ismail & Eldin, 2016). The project manager and the stakeholders must construct the building in a fashion such that the residents can lead a good life.

Environmental Infrastructure

ADCO Constructions must provide the residents with a healthy environment. The project manager and the stakeholders are responsible for constructing roadways and parking lots to facilitate the residents of the building (Mok, Shen & Yang, 2015). They must construct parks and gardens. The residents can enjoy a good time over there. The children can play in the garden. Thus there is a need to set up an environmental infrastructure there within the building campus.

Sanctions

Australia Minister of Public Works has prepared some guidelines and policies. ADCO Constructions is bound to follow those guidelines. If ADCO Constructions fail to follow the rules and the policies, then they will have to pay a heavy penalty. The project manager and the stakeholders will have to adopt the policies (Montaser & Moselhi, 2014). If anyone fails or violates any policies, he will be threatened with imprisonment of ten years and will have to huge fines.

1. ADCO Constructions plans to construct a building in Australia. They appoint a project manager. He and his team will handle all the project activities. This project belongs to Australia (Yang & Chen, 2015). ADCO Construction is famous construction company based in Australia. The project stakeholders are also Australians. Therefore, other countries are out of scope.
2. The project stakeholders will carry out all the project activities according to the project plan. The activities defined in the project will be carried out only (Zolfani et al., 2017). The activities which have not been definedin the project plan are out of scope.

Foundation of the Building

iii. The project manager will assign the builders, masons, plumbers, electrician and all of them will contribute to the project (Ryu, Son & Kim, 2016). The resources defined within the project plan will perform. Any other resources which are not mentioned in the project plan are out of scope.

1. The project plan will show the budget required for the entire project. The budget has been allocatedfor everyresource for the project (Islam, Razwanul & Mahmud, 2017). Any extra costing required for the project is out of scope.
2. The project has been scheduled to complete within a given period. The project manager and the associated stakeholders are bound to finish the project within timeline (Collins, Parrish & Gibson, 2017). The slack time can be considered. However, the timeline cannot be extendedbeyond slack time; it is clearly out of scope.

There are several limits and exclusions for a building construction project. The project stakeholders, builders and the project team members of ADCO Constructions can face limits and exclusions while conducting the construction activities (Yeung, Ng & Wong, 2017). Completed operations, residential exclusions, excluded operations, subcontracted work exclusion, employee theft, intentional and illegal acts are some of the project exclusions.

Completed Operations

The labourers working at the construction site must ensure that they are getting appropriate coverage. The insurance carriers have made this type of coverage an option for the agents and the agents have to request specially for the coverage.

Residential Exclusions

The insurance contractors do not like the residential contractors, and there may be certain reasons for that. That is why the insurance contractors include an extra page in the policy paper (He et al., 2015). The last paper of the page contains the ‘Residential Exclusions’.

Excluded Operations

There are many policies out there which exclude the specific operations like the roofing, condominium, apartments and the townhomes (Schaufelberger & Holm, 2017). The policies also exclude the demolition, work over 3 stories, roofing and others.

The stakeholders’ work

The builders, mason, plumber are responsible for erecting the building. If any building falls, the stakeholders will have to pay the penalty. ADCO Constructions will have to pay for the injuries; they will have to pay for all the injuries (Lindgren, Widén & Emmitt, 2018). After ADCO Constructions takes the responsibility of construction of building after someone else, then ADCO can get insurance to rework. The insurance carriers will allow a limited amount of rework coverage,

Pollution

The pollution policy can be helpful to safeguard oneself. The project manager and his team must take the initiative to exclude the pollution (Francom & El Asmar, 2015). The air pollution can cause severe harm to the project manager and his team. The pollution can adversely affect the project activities, and they can suffer heavy loss.

Illegal Acts

The insurance carriers can deny any claims if the project stakeholders conduct any ill-acts or illegal acts.

Employee Theft

If any criminal breaks in and steal any confidential and sensitive data then the property policy will pay some handful of money to the stakeholders. The project member can steal the sensitive information. The issue can be mitigated with the help of the specific crime policy (Cao et al., 2016). The policy is very costly. ADCO Constructions will have to spend heavy for adopting this policy.

Construction of the Building

Customers’ feedback plays a major role in the project. The reviews from the residents and the dwellers of the buildings will help project plan to prepare a better project plan. ADCO Constructions and the builders, masons, plumber, electrician, mechanical subcontractor, a civil engineer can work efficiently and can satisfy the needs of both the local residents and the dwellers of the buildings (Rumane, 2016). The customers will give them both positive and negative feedback. The local residents may face certain issues and may complain. The project manager must consider all these factors and if possible must make appropriate changes if feasible. The project may harm the society and environment in some way, can increase the pollution. However, the project manager must take into consideration all these staffs carefully (Love, Teo & Morrison, 2018). The dwellers may want to shift doors and windows, may want to change the interior decoration. The project manager must listen to them and fulfil their demand, in this way dwellers can be satisfied. In this way the customers’ reviews can help ADCO Constructions, project manager and his team to work better.
