CONSTRUCTION.
In project architecture
and civil engineering, construction is the building or assembly
of any infrastructure on a site or sites. Although this may
be thought of as a single activity, in fact construction is
a feat of multitasking. Normally the job is managed by the construction
manager, supervised by the project manager, design engineer
or project architect. While these people work in offices, every
construction project requires a large number of laborers, carpenters,
and other skilled tradesmen to complete the physical task of
construction.
For the successful execution
of a project effective planning is essential. Those involved
with the design and execution of the infrastructure in question
must consider the environmental impact of the job, the successful
scheduling, budgeting, site safety, availability of materials,
logistics, inconvenience to the public caused by construction
delays, preparing tender documents, etc.
