Introduction:

Here in this report we have discussed the basic fundamental requirements of the construction mechanisms and the construction management behavior on the different aspects of the construction management. Based on the construction here the discussion is based on several parts of a construction management manual. With the help of proper methodology the need of this report is to get an optimal solution in different section of the construction management. Before going forward to the forward the main thing is to be considering what is the construction management is? The construction management is a team of the higher officials with the collaboration of some technical and finance person to take care of any kind of construction works. The main part thing is to be taken into consideration is to check the works of a construction management. We need to check the different persons available in a construction management team with their own responsibilities. The management is made for the best outcome from the construction site. There are so many topics are involved in the construction management scenario. In this report all these things are discussed with a proper manner.

From the very first point of a construction management team at up to the final execution of the construction each and everyone is the main or partial part of the construction management team. It is known to all of us that the before proceeding at the construction work the management team plays the important role on this context. At the first stage we can see the design and drafting team in a construction management team, after that the survey team so that they can check all the feasibility of the site for making the particular construction. After all of them the finance team comes into role in the construction management team to evaluate the budget and the costing for the construction of any building or any kind of structural part. If the entire construction team is completed with their budget at that time the hardcore branches are comes into the site for any kind of construction mechanism like planning, footing, column structures, beams structures evaluation and all. In this kind of scenario we need actually civil engineers, environmental engineers, safety engineers and also the need of the ground level stuffs are also an important thing in any kind of construction work. When we will be able to get in touch with all the possible persons then a perfect planning can be done and this kind of planning will be the main motive of the construction management.

Need of Construction Management:

All the detailed parameters we have discussed in the introduction part of the report are discussed in detail in the main body of the report. On the first part here we have discussed a detail statement about the construction project management and then accordingly we have completed all the necessary parts.

The construction project management can be compared to the BIM solution. The project management contains several things needed to be complete before starting of the constructing. This kind of methodology will help a lot for the smooth operation of the entire process. The main topics to be consider for the discussion of the construction management solution,

(BIM for Project Managers, Chalmers University of Technology)

• Site selection for the particular construction is to be constructed on that site.
• Testing of the soil and the load carrying capacity of the particular place we are taken for consideration.
• Design of the footing, column and beam structure of the structure, to get the virtual view of the structure is to be made on that place.
• Footing plan of the construction and the various arrangements of the RCC.
• A proper construction plan making for maintaining the routine and the schedule as per the plan.
• Material handling and procurement policy and a proper planning to get this resolves. The reason behind it is to make a feasible option for the procurement of all raw materials.
• Material handling team planning is to be done in the construction management planning, so that any kind of delay may not occur at the time of construction work. So, only for this purpose a dedicated team is required.
• Machineries are required for the entire construction are to be procure on the basis of that time period by the contractor either it will be a owned machineries or those can be rented one.
• A dedicated team should be there for the regular maintenance of all those machineries and vehicles too.

This entire thing is completely related to the construction management. Since the main motive is to get one of the best feasible option on different aspects we need to perform carefully all the required procedures. With the help of construction management by various dedicated teams the construction team will be able to get the most optimal solution in terms of the productivity and quality assurance and all.

Now, the question may arises that, is the construction management based on the mechanical and civil oriented tasks the answer will be no here. The reason behind it is safety, quality, finance and human recourses are also the included in the construction management.

Advantages of Construction Management:

The construction management to any kind of construction related task has a lot of advantages. For the preliminary part of a construction it contains several steps like construction and structural design and drawing, bill of material preparation, constriction planning, budget planning everything comes in to the solution. With the help of the construction management solution there will a lesser chance to get some confusion in between various management persons. They all will be able to go forward with a common mission and goal. Considering these topics the advantages or benefits can be written as follows,

1. It can help a lot for the collaboration with the management teams and the project undertaking teams with a particular agenda.
2. If a construction team will follow all the things related to the BIM solution then it can make an enhancement in the productivity on a project because everything is just based on proper planning.
3. If a project team can perform the mechanical load simulation with the help of simulation software tools then a quality output will be there in terms of the construction of the building.
4. A proper planning and material handling plan and material issuing procedure can reduce the wastage of the material.
5. In the building information modeling when we have the proper drawings and the designs then we can use some of the trial and error methods to get the optimal solution. On the context of the optimal solution the cost cutting can be done by considering the design concepts and design aspects, which is a prior part of BIM in construction management.

Also by using some of the technique like reduction of the thermal conduction behavior of a building, the environmental conditions like ventilation, air flow and day light everything can be achieved with the help of BIM solution in a construction management. The reason behind it is, at the time of design and drawing preparation we can introduce all this things in visual mode as well as in pen paper based planning.

These all are the some of the basic features of the construction management we need to be considering at the time of preparing any report based on it. In most of the cases the general requirement of some of the construction management is to maintain the quality of the construction structure proper so that the chance of failure will be tends to zero, but. If we do not have any proper planning, design, load testing data then we just need to work based on our assumption at that time the chances of occurring failure is maximum.

Now, here we have selected some of the aspects in civil engineering and based on them we have prepared the portfolio to show how this kind of things are to be incorporated in civil engineering construction job site.

Health Safety and Environmental Management:

On the context of the construction management one of the important thing we need to check all the time of safety and environmental management. The safety management of a construction site consists of the normal safety standard and the usage of different safety norms in construction. Along with this the environmental management studies is all about maintaining environmental aspects of a construction. In the safety and hazard solution we need to maintain all the management studies in four different steps.

• Safety policy
• Safety risk management
• Safety assurance
• Safety promotion

Safety policy contains several general terms of maintaining the safety precautions in a construction site. The construction management team of that particular job needs to maintain all the safety norms and standards as per the zonal rules and international rules. If we can observe all those things carefully in a construction site them we can see for maintaining the safety with the help of project managers and safety instructor/ engineer the workers safety maintained to the most higher extend. So that public health issue or any kind of hazard may not occur at any circumstances.

In the safety management it is also related to the construction management. If the safety management does not have some procedures to check all the safety norms carefully then a severe damage may occur and hence the productivity will automatically dimmed. Since, we all know that, the main motive of construction management is to enhance the productivity of the construction. For that reason we need to be very much careful at the time of planning and implementation of various rules and regulations in the construction management.

In the part of the safety assurance, it is just to assure the safety in a construction site. As a project manager in a construction site he/she should be take all the forward steps for maintaining the safety precautions. To assure the healthy condition of the employees and the workers the norms are to be implemented. Like, the usage of different safety belts, helmets, gloves, eye protection, hearing protection everything is to be maintained.

In the promotional feature of the safety in construction management with the help of the safety instructor/ engineer all the employees and workers are to be instruct properly how to maintain the safety facts. On the starting of the construction works there are several sites are available they give some of the lesion to their worker for maintaining the safety in construction site. Several classes and presentation trainings should be there in the construction management to have a healthy condition all the time.

On the basis of the environmental aspects the main thing is to be done in a construction site is to maintain the various hazards situation to get a healthy life for the employees as well as the outsiders.

At any construction site there are so many equipments and power tools are used which are the basic sources of the noise in the locality. Since there might be a rule like we can work on the working hour from 7 a.m to 6 p.m but at this time also we should consider the school hour so that the general activity will not hamper in the schools. The noise sources are,

1. Motor driven equipment noise.
2. Some kind of horns and signaling devices are also used in larger construction sites these are also some sources of noise.
3. For various power tools generating electricity with the help of generators are one of the most common reason of noise.
4. Heavy vehicle sounds are also the sources of noise in a construction site.
5. Pile drivers, mechanical hammers can also be considered as noise sources.
6. Some time the huge blowers, cutting tools and power tools are there in any construction side produce high pitch sound and that can be considered as one of the most important source of the noise.

A table is given in this part so that we can have an idea about the common instruments in construction work and there noise range.

Equipments	Noise range
Roller	75-92 dBA
Truck	85-100 dBA
Bull dozer	85-100 dBA
Concrete mixing machine	Less than 90 dBA
Crane arrangement	95-100 dBA
Generators	Less than 90 dBA
Pneumatic breaker	90-120 dBA
Compressor	Less than 90 dBA
Vibrator	85-100 dBA
Power saw	75-95 dBA
Power drill	95-115 dBA

 

The steps we can follow to reduce the noise for the stated problem statements are,

• We can use some kind of quieter instruments for reduction of the noise.
• We can modify the old existing machinery for reducing noise.
• A complete partition can be created for noise reduction to the outer side of the construction site but that will not help the construction workers.
• Regular maintenance is required for all the machineries for noise reduction on the construction site.
• We can also schedule the working hour with the help of authority permission so that the timing of working may not hamper the general activity of people for noise.

 

Some of the technique are shown above can be implemented in the equipment we used in the construction work we are carrying out. Along with this all we can also make some kind of physical barrier around the compressor, we can cover the engine of the heavy vehicle with the help of soundproof heat transferrable padding, some kind of muffler and special silencer also can be used in various equipment.

On the context of work scheduling we can make a schedule of the working hours such that the noise generation can be minimize. If we schedule like at a time only two or three power tool will be engage in work in this time another worker can handle some jobs do not require power tools. Having this kind of scheduling we can also minimize the noise in a construction site.

A regular maintenance is also required for minimizing the noise level of the various heavy vehicles and the power tools. A regular oiling, greasing on the vehicle parts and machinery will make a lesser vibration as a result we can reduce the noise level at the construction so that any kind of hazardous situation will not occur on the working hour of other activities.

These are the basic requirements we need to follow at the time of noise reduction in construction site so that we can make a healthy environment in terms of noise.

Quality:

Maintaining the quality in a particular construction site is the most important thing. For any time of construction, the quality of the construction decides the sustainability of the construction it may be anything like a building or a bridge. In some of the research papers we have seen that the process used to maintain the quality is only the software tools. With the help of software tools the construction management team makes the virtual images of the actual construction and a simulation is to be carried out with the help of static and dynamic loading. At this kind of situation if we get a very prompt result and that shows the least level of failure then we can say this particular construction is a quality product. As we all can observe that the usage of quality products or raw materials will automatically enhance the sustainability of a construction.

So, on the context of the quality management it has to be deciding at the very fast time of the construction work.

Finance and Commercial:

On the context of commercial and finance management of a construction one of the moist important things are budget, costing and business aspects.

Here the first thing is the budgeting,

How to get a budget for a construction is one of the most important things all needs to be considered. Since, we are supposed to follow all the construction management procedures it includes the design and validation of that particular design at the beginning of a project. Now if we have done with the design from any designing software then we will get to know the exact bill of material for the construction work. With the help of the bill of material we can check the exact budgeting of the project.

After we have been done with the budget another most important thing is the cost reduction or cost cutting,

The cost cutting is one of the most efficient and effective method for any kind of construction projects. The cost cutting is only possible if we planned so. At the time of the beginning of any project the design team needs to make some of the possible design and after that the checking or the simulation is necessary. If we get a proper result that the structure is over sized in terms of safety related to the factor of safety it means a over costing. At that time the optimization of the design and the reduction of material and again checking will give us the most optimal solution in terms of cost cutting.

Business aspects related to the financial and commercial solution,

If we are doing any construction project as a management team of that construction we need to be very much careful to the business aspects of the construction. After completion of the construction if the construction management team will not get any kind of commercial or business dealings on that construction then it has just no meaning of the construction. For this kind of business management studies in the construction management, a construction team has to make some of the presentation so that one can take any risk for the selection of the constructions on any kind of business aspects. If it is a building is constructing then the private party should get the overview of the building so that they can make a planning for different business policy.

One more important thing is the scheduling of the construction project planning so that we can have a schedule so that we can get the optimum solution in terms or cost reduction. If the time duration will be lesser for completion of any project then automatically the management team can execute a higher cost cutting.

These all are the financial and commercial aspects of construction management planning one can implement in their construction work.

Human Resources:

Human resources are one of the most important thing is to be consider at the time of construction management planning. Since, the most important motive is to get an optimum solution. The need is to complete the projects with proper perfection and in a stipulated time. For that reason the human resources are the needful thing. For a construction project the basic human resources is to be classified into several parts. There mainly three kinds of resources are needed Lower level, medium level and higher level. For the different levels a construction company or any construction organization needs to be checking the availability of all this stages and an ample amount of resources in terms of human resources. For each section of the resources they all need to arrange proper skilled employees so that any kind of hazardous situation may not occur. The proper employment and arrangement of the resources as a team in the construction management then one can easily make a most feasible option.

This kind of proper planning proper selection of the human resources will help a lot for the successful completion of any construction project. On the context of the human resources the every organization should have a proper planning and proper team for this. They should know where we need someone.

Conclusion:

As we have discussed all the things we can conclude now on the basis of the different aspects on construction management. The role of the construction management is very important as we have seen earlier the advantages of the construction management. There are so many advantages in any kind of construction if we all follow the principals of construction management. At the time of study of the construction management we have also studied lot of things related to the BIM solution is also an important feature of the construction management for getting a perfect solution.

As an example we have visited so many research papers and student submitted papers, and we get to know the construction of ‘Abdoun Bridge’ one of the greatest constructions of L&T, and the structural capability of the bridge is excellent. This all things are possible only when we will be able to follow the construction management. We have also studied the BIM related solution of the bridge, how we can get the optimal solution related to its structure and the sustainable development are very complex for that high cost and lengthy projects are now known to all of us. So, as a result we can say this kind of successful constructions will help us a lot to learn different aspects of the construction management.
