What is Construction Project Management?Construction Project Management (CPM) is the process of

accomplishing the goal of completing a structure efficiently and effectively within the desired time by maintaining the cost and quality of work through the managerial phases which are planning, organizing, leading & controlling.

Scheduling in Project Management In Project Management scheduling is the listing of a project’s

milestones, activities and deliverables, usually with intended start and finish dates.

Activities in a Construction Project

Gathering the general requirements,

Site work, Concrete work, Masonry work, Metal works, Wood and plastics work, Thermal and moisture

protection,

Doors and windows fittings, Finishes, Specialties, Equipment, Furnishings, Special construction, Convoying systems, Mechanical works and Electrical works

According to CSI (Construction Specifications Institute) format, the necessary activities which are needed to be done in a construction project are:

Factors Affecting the Scheduling in PMResource Allocation,Budget,Duration,Desired Quality and Effectiveness and efficiency of the materials and equipments

used.

(Note: Applicable if sufficient amount of labors, equipment, materials are provided, if Portland Cement is used and if the working hour is not more that 8 hours.)

Exceptional Measures• Exceptional measures that can be taken to reduce the

time to complete a twenty storied building within a shorter time are;

Use of High Performance Concrete,Use of UV curing method,Use of steam curing method,Increasing working duration up to 24/7Increase numbers of site engineers up to at least 3 people.
