6. What is Civil Engineering? What is Construction? What is Project?
What is Management?
Civil Engineering is a profession and the discipline deals with natural and synthetically built environment. There are a number of specializations of the discipline such as:
Infrastructure planning and development
Environmental sustainability
Natural resources and disaster management

7. What is Civil Engineering? What is Construction? What is Project?
What is Management?
Construction is the process of building infrastructure such as roads, buildings, water management structures, terrain management systems, environmental systems, disaster management structures etc.
Construction differs from manufacturing in the sense that, construction has a designated owner and location; where as in manufacturing, the owner (purchaser) and location of use is unknown at the time of production process.

8. What is Civil Engineering? What is Construction? What is Project?
What is Management?
Project is an undertaking carried out individually or collaboratively and possibly involving research or design, that is carefully planned to achieve a particular aim.

9. What is Civil Engineering? What is Construction? What is Project?
What is Management?

11. Each Construction Project is “Unique” and “Temporary” as per PMBOK
* PMBOK by Project Management Institute, US.
Mumbai in India.
Leading Indian institution: NICMAR, Pune
(National Institute of Construction Management and Research)
NBC Part 7 deals with Construction management, practices and safety

12. Unique features of Construction Project
One time activity : perform correctly at start & till end
Complexity : multidisciplinary tasks, specialists
High cost & time for execution
High risk of failure
Difficulty in defining Quality standards
Uniqueness of people relationship
Feedback mechanism
Lack of experience of owner / client
Untrained work force

13. Temporary nature of Construction Project
Uncertainties
Site specific matters
People working together for the first time
cooperation or conflict ?
Technology updates & dynamism
Client’s desire
ad-hoc organization
Existence ends on accomplishing the goal

15. Critical Success Factors Deliverables Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)
Specific Components of a Project Management Plan:
Scope Statement
Critical Success Factors
Deliverables
Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)
Schedule
Budget
Quality
Human Resources Plan
Stakeholder List
Communication
Risk Register
Procurement Plan

16. ID Item Dependency Start End Amount

17. Cycle of each activity

18. Typical Life Cycle of a Construction Project
(NBC, Part 7)

19. DPR :
Detailed Project Report

20. D.P.R Base Document Includes Planning and Implementation Prepared for:
Investment ideas
Decision making
Approval
Execution
Planning
It is a complete document for the project

21. Preparation of D.P.R Section I Back ground and basic information
Section II
Overview and summary
Section III
Project details including implementation model

22. Principles : Preparation of D.P.R
DPR shall be such that the evaluation and appraisal of the project is possible. It shall contain information on:
Important aspects of the project
Background, location, environmental, profitability
Management evaluation
Promoters, organization
3) Technical feasibility
Raw material, location, plant & machinery
4) Commercial viability
Exg. Potential, market share of products, selling price
5) Financial appraisal
Project cost, financing, profitability
6) Economic viability
Social cost benefit analysis, strength of project, competition

23. Example:

26. From the following data, prepare a Bar chart (Gantt Chart) and find the total project duration.
Activity
Duration
(Days)
Followed

28. Quiz 1:
Quiz 2:
Assuming project start date is , find the completion dates for the above two projects. Use Gantt chart as the tool.

29. PERT & CPM

31. Program (Project) Evaluation and Review Technique:
PERT uses time as a variable which represents the planned resource application along with performance specification. In this technique, first of all, the project is divided into activities and events. After that proper sequence is ascertained, and a network is constructed. After that time needed in each activity is calculated and the critical path (longest path connecting all the events) is determined.
Critical Path Method:
In this method, first of all, a list is prepared consisting of all the activities needed to complete a project, followed by the computation of time required to complete each activity. After that, the dependency between the activities is determined. Here, ‘path’ is defined as a sequence of activities in a network. The critical path is the path with the highest length.
