- Figure 2-2 shows the project organization chart for a Design-Bid-Build project delivery method. Assume the same project is to be delivered through design-build method - Project Architect (John James) and Western Construction Co. formed a partnership and competed for the project against other design-build teams and won the project. Prepare a project organization chart for the design-build delivery method. All design sub-consultants and subcontractors remain the same.: Explain the role of computers in “Estimation and Tender Documentation Preparation”. Explain Time Scheduling of different construction activates for the execution of the projects.29. Since the owner has little day-to-day involvement, he is in all matters by the construction manager. 30. Decisions concerning project strategies during the design phase of the project are made by the 31. The design-build delivery method is a single-source procurement for the owner, consisting of and 32. The design-build firm acts as a facilitator for designers and constructors to eliminate the relationship that can exist between such parties in a traditional delivery method. 33. The four types of design-build organizations are: 34. A final type of delivery method introduced by the instructor is IPD - aka, 35. is a logical platform for IPD.
- The two major constraints that can hamper a construction project are time and resources. What actions can a project manager undertake to overcome these constraints?Question 2 A) How to achieve or meet with main construction functions based on construction management concepts? B) How to describe shortly with possible examples the following context (complex projects and even small project are both require consideration of both cost and scheduling over time)?What is the difference between a conceptual cost estimate and a detailed cost estimate? What is the greatest risk the contractor faces when developing a cost estimate? How does an estimator develop the work breakdown structure for a project? When is a construction schedule developed in the estimating process and why?
- 247. To determine a subcontractor's probable financial stability, which of the following would be the most relevant area for inquiry? A. Bonding rate and capacity. B. Cost of general liability insurance. C. Experience of their project managers. D. History of completed projects. 248. The most effective procurement system includes which of the following? A. Submittal log maintained weekly. B. Management system which tracks the number of submittals still outstanding. C. Log system which tracks how long the design team takes to review each submittal. D. Log which maintains fabrication, estimated and actual delivery, and installation dates. 249. Which stage of the management process has the greatest impact on the success of a project? A. Staffing. B. Planning. C. Monitoring. D. Implementing.“Value analysis is an organized approach to identify and eliminate wastage and unnecessary costs.” Assess the truth of the above statement and describe how you would apply the construction-oriented value management theory to a project of your choice detailing all phases of value approach.The Iron Triangle of project management shows the objectives of time (delivery), quality and cost. Explain four provisions that can be included in a contract agreement to ensure that projects are completed on time, without major defects and within budget.
- Rank the 4 types of contracts according to its advantage to a project contractor. Discuss why by citing its attributes.If the specifications are silent on the subject, but a contractor asks you, as the Resident Project Representative or inspector, how to perform the work, which of the following is the recommended procedure? a. Be ready to help by telling the contractor your opinions,because as a member of the construction team,it is your responsibility. b. Politely decline because construction means andmethods are the sole prerogative of the contractor.c. Direct the contractor how to perform the workbecause you know that if the contractor asked you,it meant that he or she did not know how to execute the work, and the project may otherwise suffer delays or failures.Question 1 A. On a project, the contractor failed to complete the project on time and the project was terminated. Because of the urgency involved to complete the project, another Contractor 'B' was asked to immediately takeover and proceed with the works without going for a tender or entering into a written contract. Assuming you are the contract manager for the Contractor 'B', what advice would you give to your company on the following: Offer, Acceptance, Consideration, Mutuality of obligations, Competency and capacity before proceeding to start working?
