Fast tracking involves performing project activities or phases in parallel rather than sequentially to compress the schedule, but it risks missing details and team member burnout without thorough analysis. Crashing uses additional resources like overtime, hiring, or outsourcing to shorten schedule duration at the least incremental cost at a critical path. The key difference is that fast tracking overlaps tasks while crashing adds resources. Both aim to accelerate project completion when the deadline is near or the start was delayed.
Ready mix concrete is produced at a central batching plant and delivered to construction sites in agitator trucks. This allows for precise mixtures and reduces waste compared to on-site mixing. The key advantages are quality control, reduced labor costs, and faster construction. Some disadvantages include additional transportation costs and the possibility of contamination during delivery. The first ready mix concrete plant was established in Germany in 1903, and commercial delivery began in the United States in 1913. The industry has grown significantly since the 1960s to become widely used around the world today.
Project Control Practical Way by Herve Baronignitetribes
Here are some key ways to measure procurement progress:
- % Progress based on weighted value of POs, broken down into steps like PO placement, material receipt, inspection, etc.
- Milestones like:
- % of PO value placed
- % of line items with approved submittals
- % of line items where material is received/inspected
- % of line items fully delivered
Tracking procurement progress through milestones helps ensure critical items are on track and identifies delays early. Milestones should reflect major stages from PO placement through delivery and inspection. This provides a more objective view than % progress alone.
Both % progress and milestone tracking are needed to effectively monitor procurement.

“Achieving Mine to Market Throughput” – Iluka South West Operations – Case...Robert Bolton
A case study in how to connect people and processes to deliver product and customer value, plus material and information flow.
A holistic approach to improving flow in a complex mineral sand operation - Iluka South West Operations
Robert is pioneer of the ToC approach in mining, oil and gas, capital infrastructure and financial markets. He has developed and implemented the Theory of Constraints (TOC) concepts in mining and resources capital planning and business execution business systems.
This case study is the turnaround story at the Iluka South West operations in Capel WA. This operation is large and complex operation with 4 separate mining operations feeding a large process plant with many dependent process and common resources.
The Throughput Focused Mining (TFM) approach improved the planning and execution processes to improve the product flow and operation performance. This turnaround was rapid. This operation achieved record production rates. Operational revenue increased significantly.
The additional operating capacity released due to the “Mine to Market” initiative, led to the stopping of a significant capital project. This capital project was to increase operating capacity.
The Theory of Constraints (ToC) concepts, simulations models and education tools, were key element s of this business system solution. Short-term planning and new scheduling methods was an element of this “Mine to Market” approach. This combined with collaboration in the form of weekly meeting, scheduling tools, common terminology and various discussion groups across the business teams, enabled the business transformation to be rapid and sustaining.

Bps 5205 sustainability construction and maintainability velpandi & mariaMaria Archana
Singapore heavily relies on conventional precast construction involving extensive use of precast planks, canopy beams, column & facade. The recent prefabrication trend, which is being increasingly used in the building industry, alleviating some of the environmental burdens associated with conventional construction. Several case studies were conducted on residential buildings in Singapore. The findings revealed that environmental, economic and social benefits of using prefabrication were significant when compared to conventional construction methods. This implies that a wider use of prefabrication techniques could contribute to sustainable construction in a dense urban environment on the other hand using precast components have adverse effects on the structure. Today, as much as 82% of Singaporeans live in public housing delivered by the HDB.HDB plans and develops public housing towns that provide Singaporeans with quality homes and living environments.
In the construction industry, construction defects and failures can occur during the design and construction phases of a project, or after a structure is substantially complete. However, while a design professional is responsible to produce complete, accurate and well-coordinated design and construction documents that are substantially free of defects; and a contractor is required to adhere to the design and construction documents, nothing built is ever perfect nor does the law require a perfect design. Furthermore, all buildings have an expected lifespan and even the structures of the ancient world will erode into a mound of sand given enough time. The eventual failure of a structure is an expected result rather than a manifestation of a construction defect. The question becomes what is a construction defect; how do defects arise; and how can defects be identified and managed?
A Case Study has been conducted to analyse Construction Defects on site, Remedial Measures & Preventable Practices at HDB Water Way Banks at Punggol East.
1.2. Objectives:
The objective of this case study aims to mitigate the defects to the future HDB projects. This project may help to HDB engineers for awareness regarding defects prevention practice. HDB has objectives, which expanding from time to time, Recently, HDB is not only functioning as a provider of basic shelter but also creates housing that can comply with the needs, necessities and aspirations for modern living days and futures. HDB objective is to provide affordable quality homes and develop vibrant living environment.
This case study has the following objectives of:
To investigate and identify the defects that appeared in the precast slab planks.
To identify the defects during construction progress, remedial measures & preventable practices propose better & quality living standards to the public.

• Unique - no two projects are identical
• Predefined goals & objectives - financial/ social /economic
• Budgets & schedules - prefixed budget and timeframe
• Uses Resources & Manpower - both are limited
• Quality / Performance - determined at beginning
• Face Risks - known and unknown risks
• Have a Project Life cycle - many phases from start to end

• Removal of HT wires in Delhi end – HT wire was removed by E.Rly through
WBSEDCL after 21 months of award of construction affect. It affected 36
piles. This badly affected the work as the machinery wad demobilized due
to non-availability of site for a very long time. Activities were therefore
planned such that all othr works could be completed and structural steel
elements to be erected were kept fabricated for erection as soon as site
becomes available. To commission the test shed before construction of
70m long area, some extra OHE masts were required to be erected. Height
guages were also erected for safety of men and machinery.
69. • Removal of the existing traction sub-station – The structure could be
dismantled by E.Rly in December, 2013,(15 months after award of LOA). It
affected 101 piles and drainage system. This was a majour bottleneck. The
work sequence was accordingly modified to ensure that this bottleneck
affects least.

• Removal of other LT line & HT line at Howrah end – These were removed
respectively in the months of May & June, 2013( 8-9 months after award
of LOA to contractor). Piling work and movement of machinery were badly
affected due to these lines. Height guages were installed for ensuring
safety while working in adjoining area.
71. • 54 Nos. of trees which could be cut and disposed of as late as
in July, 2013 (9 months after award of LOA to contractor).
Piling work at some locations was affected due to trees. To
ensure speedy approval of tree cutting, meetings were held
with Chief conservator of Forests on behalf of E.Rly and new
planation schemes were submitted.
72. HANDLING HHIINNDDRRAANNCCEESS AATT EELLFF,, DDAANNKKUUNNII
• Encroachments – There were some encroachments which could be
relocated/ shifted only in November, 2013 (13 months after award of
LOA to contractor). These affected the railway track construction apart
from being a nuissance. Constant interaction with E.Rly was made for
removal of hutments.
• Abandoned Railway bridge – This is
still existing and affecting part of the
boundary wall. Road layout was
changed due to this to ensure that
main work is not held up on this
account.
73. HANDLING HINDRANCES AATT EELLFF,, DDAANNKKUUNNII
Underground HT cable at Howrah end entrance gate could be
got shifted only in June,2014 (after lapse of original DOC of
contract). Because of this cable, the regrading of the approach
road could not be done before monsoon. The work was finally
taken up by RVNL itself.
The site for construction of quarters, which is a very time
consuming activity, could not be made available in time by
E.Rly. The layouts were slightly altered to ensure that
construction can be taken up early.
Blocks C & D- 07.02.2013 (After 4 months of LOA)
Block E- 12.09.2013 (After nearly one year of LOA)
Blocks A & B- 25.11.2013 (After nearly 14 months of LOA)
74. ADDITIONAL WWOORRKKSS IINN EELLFF,, DDaannkkuunnii
As a principal, addition/modification to originally planned work must be avoided as it adversely
affects the scope-time-cost triangle. RVNL has been restricting the additions/ modifications to a
large extent as far as possible. However, because of practical constraints some had to be
accommodated such as :-
Deployment of 2 nos. of additional cranes in the 30 M bay(majour and very costly item and
having cascading effect on other activities such as completion of shed. Constant Chasing of the
contractor and his vendor were taken up as it was a critical item)
Provision of solar power plant (new contract was awarded as it was independent item))
Provision of roof covering with trusses in the administrative building and covering with green
colour polycarbonate sheet (Existing vendor was asked to provide color sheet and an in-house
drawing was developed for early execution)
Provision of fountain and garden inside the administrative building (An in-house drawing was
developed for early execution and a small quotation work was awarded to a specialist agency)
Provision of water treatment plant (Thorough study of water problem was taken up and a
specialist agency awarded a small work for execution in 2 months)
Provision of 2 nos. of cross tracks(Work could be accommodated as flooring work in progress)
Provision of office/conference room on the second floor open terrace area (It being a special
and urgent requirement, several changes were incorporated in drawings and work executed)
140 numbers of quick couplings (Meetings were held with contractor and his vendor for
incorporating higher specification)
Change in name of the factory for display at entrance was which was altered even after
manufacture of the steel letters. (The matter went up to Member/ Electrical and finally was to
be accepted. However, the new name being too big, only English version was displayed on
specially designed structure and for Hindi and Bangla version, new structure has been planned
alongside.)
75. MODIFICATIONS EXECUTED IINN EELLFF,, DDAANNKKUUNNII
RVNL had also to accept several changes during the execution
of the work such as :
• Shifting of the fire tank which led to considerable change in the
layout including that of the car parking area and road
• Changes in the locations of doors, partition walls at several
locations in the administrative building as asked from time to
time
• Changes in the locations of doors and the addition of several
partition walls and doors as asked from time to time
• Change in type of railing in administrative building

What iiss AAeesstthheettiiccss??
Aesthetics is commonly known as the study of
sensory or sensori-emotional values, sometimes called
judgments of sentiment and taste .
It is a critical reflection on art,
culture and nature
Aesthetics is a subdiscipline of axiology, a branch
of philosophy, and is closely associated with the
philosophy of art .
Aesthetics is nothing but new ways of
seeing and perceiving the world
93. ARCHITECTURAL CONCEPTS
about DLW Factory
Elevation Style selected- Style chosen has straight
forward lines of projections with continuous surfaces
giving a look of massiveness compatible to factory
elevation.
The elevation projections are sleek, stream-lined &
modern without any extra attributes, making it
maintenance friendly (no bent surfaces where dirt can
accumulate, minimum washing with hose can bring back
luster.
Convenience – Construction was made simple without
hampering the quality of external look of the buildings.
94. ARCHITECTURAL CONCEPTS
about DLW Factory
Homogeniety of surfaces has been achieved by non
broken members rendering a rhythmic and soothing
effect to the eye.
All buildings have identical Elevation treatment giving it a
campus look, thereby maintaining the homogeneous
environment.
Identification Factor - is maintained by not repeating the
treatments bluntly in all buildings but generally changing
the faces minutely with a view to enhance the
possessiveness of the users which partially may cast an
impact on the nature of the workers.
95. ARCHITECTURAL CONCEPTS
about DLW Factory
Since most of the buildings are more horizontal than
vertical, strategic broken members placed vertically
which ultimately has formed a matrix harmonious to the
eye.
Colors – Bright colors have been used to break away
from the usual monotonous look of a factory. Orange
signifies energy; green signifies unity & harmony and
white signifies peace & tranquility. The combination of
all three assures success & progress.

The first step in using MS-Project(MSP) is to assign the project start date.
The project start date will be the default start date for all tasks until
you establish dependency relationships. you don't put in a start If
date, MSP will put in the current date.
yours is a long-term project, you mIaf y also want to adjust your
project "Calendar" at this time to compensate for holiday times.
105. Define WBS

133. STARFISH
One day a man was walking along the beach when he
noticed a boy repeatedly picking things up and gently
tossing them into the ocean. Approaching the boy, he
asked, "What are you doing?“
The youth replied, "Throwing starfish back into the water.
The surf is up and the tide is going out. If I don’t throw them
back, they’ll die.“
"Son," the man said, "don’t you realize there are miles and
miles of beach and thousands and thousands of starfish?
You can’t possibly make any difference!“
The boy bent down, picked up another starfish, and threw it
back into the surf. Then, smiling up at the man, he said "It
sure made a difference to that one!"
134. The Boy throwing
back the
STARFISH
Each one of us can
help the society
and nation….
135. Everyone comes empty hand and goes like that. So everyone
should contribute to the system and to the world. They need
everyone’s droplets like saving STAR-FISH.

Time is like the wind, it lifts the light and
leaves the heavy.
