DEVELOPMENT OF CONSTRUCTION
PROJECT
 Overview on Construction
Definition: build various types of structures and facilities.

Accomplish by assembling materials, parts, and systems

into the major subsections of the structure; the finished
structure itself then becomes part of the building stock
necessary for the conduct of business and life.

The building we occupied, roads we drive on and bridge

that we cross all are made by the activities of the
construction.

Major purposes are to contain shelter, transport, and

manufacture, communicate, or provide recreation.

A basic industry that fulfills human needs.

Construction types: single/small scale, large scale

 Construction Team
The construction team is headed by a coordinating
organization, often called a general contractor, which
takes the primary responsibility for executing the
building and signs a contract to do so with the
building user.

The cost of the contract is usually an agreed lump

sum, although cost-plus-fee contracts are sometimes
used on large projects for which construction begins
before the contract documents are complete and the
building scope is not fully defined.
 Building Construction(7/16)
In general, building can be classified according to their usage
namely;

Agricultural buildings
Commercial buildings
Residential Buildings
Educational buildings
Government buildings
Industrial buildings
Military buildings
Parking and storage
Religious buildings.
Transit stations .
Other stadium, marina, hospital, low energy building,
triumphal arch, etc.
 Purposes of site investigation

i. Suitability of the site and the environment of the proposed project.

ii. Adequate design work and the economy, including the temporary works
iii. To plan the best construction methods
iv. To determine changes in the soil and the environment.

v. Recommends appropriate construction sites :-

a. Impact loading new building on pre-existing structures
b. Compatibility of the proposed structure with the site.
c. Information in the bearing capacity of soil, sediment.
d. Content of harmful substances such as sulfate and others.
e. The possibility of deposition occurs due to past activities and future.
f. The movement of ground water - the level and flow, tidal and others.
g. Changes in soil properties due to exposure during construction
h. Work on land improvement, cost and feasibility.

 Building Construction
In fact, whatever it shapes and heights, every
building is composed of some common
elements:
Foundations
Floors
Walls
Roof
Windows and doors
Stairs and ramps
Surface finishes
Services
 Types of Construction
Construction industry sectors are
usually separated into the
following for categories:
Residential
Commercial building
Infrastructure and heavy construction
Industrial
 Residential
Construction Sector
Comprised of individual homes, small
condominiums, and apartment complexes.
Uses fairly low technology and readily
available technology.
In small or individual house construction,
normally a one-person company will serve
as a general contractor. This general
contractor will then hire subcontractors to
do special jobs/task.
Construction for the other large residential
such as entire housing developments,
apartment buildings and condominium
normally executed by large and well
establish Construction Company with in-
house professionals and workers.
 Commercial Building
Construction Sector
Commercial building
sector includes;
office buildings,
large apartment
complexes,
shopping malls,
theaters,
schools, universities,
and
hospitals.
Usually can be either
private or public funding. Hospitals building requires a
Typical designs special knowledge of the activities
and/or specialization held inside tend to technically
complex in design and require
involved in the tight quality control during
construction construction.
 Infrastructural and Heavy
Construction Sector
Construction in infrastructure and
heavy highway sector enables the
distribution of goods and people.
Examples; roadways construction,
dams, bridge etc.)
The projects are designed principally
by civil engineers and build by heavy
construction contractors who have
engineering backgrounds or support.
Most of these types of projects have a
high level of complexity and normally
are publicly funded because they are
build to served the publics needs.
 Industrial Construction
Sector
Examples: steel mills, petroleum refineries, chemical
processing plants, and automobile production
facilities are defined by the production activities
within the facilities.
The design and construction were depends on the
need of the process and production equipment.
Mostly, these facilities are privately funded and also
can be from public fund which depends on the
respective country/nation.
This sector was also required specialized in design
and construction due to its complexity and high
level of technology used for the production.
