1.0 PROJECT DETAILS You work for a garage construction company. Your company has been hired by a homeowner to construct a new garage behind their house. Figure 1 shows the layout of the site. Neighbouring Property Existing trees to be removed -26- New Concrete Drive Existing Concrete Drive. 12 Neighbouring School 4 m 8 m Existing Road Existing House Property Boundary Neighbouring Property Neighbours House Figure 1 - Garage Project Plan The site of the garage is in a grassed area. There are three large pine trees on the proposed garage site that need to be removed as part of the garage construction work. The site clearance, pine tree removal and earthworks will be carried out by a subcontractor who will bring the drive and garage areas up to their subgrade levels. The garage will be 4 metres wide by 8 metres long with a 150mm thick reinforced concrete floor with timber framing and galvanised steel cladding and roofing. The contract also includes constructing a new 3-metre-wide 150 mm thick reinforced concrete drive and turning area from the existing concrete drive to the new garage. The garage floor and drive are to have a broomed finish and will use mesh reinforcing. You have two construction crews. The first is a concrete crew consisting of two workers who have the equipment and skills to do all work required to lay the foundations, concrete garage floor and driveway as well as doing the landscaping and grassing. The foundation durations and costs are included in Table 1 but you will need to calculate the duration and costs for the construction of the garage floor and driveway. Each worker in the concrete construction crew is charged out at $35/hour which includes the costs of the equipment they use. Concrete is $500/m delivered to site and mesh is $40/m (including an allowance for overlaps). Allow an additional $1,200 for bar chairs, formwork and other materials. The second crew is the building construction crew who will build the garage. 1 the durations and costs for all of their work. Table 1 is a WBS for the project with durations and costs for each work package. Note that the durations and costs for items 2.2 and 3.2 are missing. You will need to calculate these values.

Working hours are 8am to 5pm from Monday to Friday. . All foundation, concrete and landscaping work will be done by a subcontractor. If you think there is more information then make a reasonable. assumption and include it your submission. 2.0 WHAT IS REQUIRED You are required to produce a Project Plan Report that shows the following: 2.1 Calculation of the durations and costs for Items 2.2 and 3.2 2.2 A program for the project (Gantt Chart and Network diagrams). You will need to determine the sequence so that the project is completed as efficiently as possible. 2.3 A Budget and Cash Flow (by week) for the project 2.4 A project Implementation and Control Plan for the project (to cover Communication, Resources, Quality, Risk and Procurement Management) Your Project Plan must be written as a technical report (in Microsoft Word) and must show the purpose, scope of work, roles & responsibilities of key stakeholders and the items listed in items 2.1 to 2.4. You need to draw your Gantt Chart and Network Diagram using Microsoft Project and submit a Microsoft Project file for marking. Use the rates (hours/m) in Table 2 to calculate the duration and cost for items 2.2 and 3.2 Table 2- Rates for Concrete Work & Formwork Unit Tradosman Labouror Hours Hours 2 Concrete Work, Formwork 31 Concrete Concrete, unreinforced readymix, placed in Blinding layer 50mm thick m3 2.20 m3 1.20 Column and pier foundations Strip footings m3 1.30 Concrete, reinforced readymix, placed in Column and pier foundations m3 1.50 Strip footings m3 1.60 m3 1.75 Slabs and thickenings on fill Suspended slabs 150/300mm thick m3 2.00 Walls 150/300mm thick m3 2.00 Columns m3 2.90 Attached beams m3 2.25 Isolated beams m3 3.00 Stairs and landings m3 3.90 32 Surface Finishes Hand Trowel m2 0.15 Power Float m2 0.18 Broomed Finish m2 0.12 2 3 1 2 ??? 3 4 4 1.0 PROJECT DETAILS You work for a garage construction company.
