OP Current Assessment 2 Using Gannt from Assessment 1 define terms - critical path, float, prevention principle, time-bar clause, act of prevention, culpable dely, concurrent delay Update construction programme as per provided project issues as per scenario. Evaluate contractor entitlement to compensation based on SCL and Disruption Protocol Prepare an EOT Prepare a third Gantt chart programme accelarated to achieve base programme completion date Explain the principles and application of resource smoothing

OP Current Assessment 1 Part A Develop a network analysis displaying activities and sequence - project data and scenario provided to learners using lucid chart - Part B -from this develop a Gantt chart in MS Project Part C - Post contract methodology - table provided and SOQ to calculate activity durations/hours (Excel file provided) Part D - complete Gantt chart - add durations from completed post contract methodology, estimate sub-contractor durations

EOT Claims Three types of delays: Acts of prevention, culpable delay, neutral events: EOT claims - grounds for this contained in contract, Usually acts of prevention and neutral events, contract sets our procedures for submitting and agreeing such claims such as timing and evidence requirements. time--bar clause. Preparing EOT Claim Contract provisions for time adjustment and benefits to client and contractor. Time versus time-related costs SCL Delay and disruption protocol

Updates and Claims (8 hours)

Importance of monitoring and reviewing Ensures that: any slippage is identified early to enable acceleration back to the completion date; any claimable delay events are identified in time to claim in accordance with the contract; by recording updated construction programs before and after the delay event provides clear evidence of the impact of the delay event for claims. Standard practice for monitoring and reviewing (printed copy of plan to site, walk around site, phone suppliers of long-lead delivery items to check on track, develop an as-built programme and distribute to stakeholders, PCG meetings, Report risks.

Determining activity duration's with construction methodologies - estimated for historical rates or by applying the estimated hours per scheduled item, ability to code hours using SOQ or builder's take-off to work out activity duration.

Base programme, "post-contract" methodology, developing a Gantt Chart, typical activities for constructing a simple dwelling or house (list provided in course materials & example house construction sequence).

Base Programme (16 hours)

Networks to determine critical path (Activities in handout). Determination of early-start, early-finish, late start, late-finish and float (Total float, free float, Interfering float, independent float). Delays, lag and lead, combination of lead and lag constraints, in network, resource leveling.

Network Analysis: (4 hours OP lecture schedule excluding blended learning activities)

Resource scheduling - maximising efficiency through utilising programme float

Process of network planning (project breakdown, activity listing, activity sequencing/constraints, network diagramming, Network analysis).

Project planning, project planning techniques (Bar/Gantt) Network analysis, Critical Path analysis, precedence diagrams, Line of Balance Techniques.

Objectives Develop a simple critical path network; Calculate the early-start, early-finish, late-start, late-finish, and float of each activity; Calculate the impact of delay, lag and lead on the critical path network.

Learning Outcome 1.   Develop a construction programme applying networking principles to produce a critical path Gantt chart and network diagram. 2.    Formulate a post-contract construction method statement. 3.   Manage a programme against progress and respond to contingent events, re-scheduling resources and analysing claim entitlement to produce time adjustment claims.

Record as-built and as-planned programmes Evaluate contractual entitlement to time adjustment and prolongation costs and prepare contract claims Establish an updated programme and acceleration strategy in response to delay events

Section 1: Gantt chart programme  Teaching time 100 hours Assessment time 50 hours

Critical path network analysis, early-start, late-start, early-finish, late-finish, float - this evaluation forms an introduction to the course REMOVE Develop a base construction programme. 1. Prepare a network diagram 1.1 First, list the tasks identified from the drawings. Typically, a task will be a portion of work done by the same contractor (e.g., erect timber framed partitions – Not staple DPC to bottom plate, nail stud to plates etc.). Descriptions should be written clearly and professionally (e.g., erect timber framed external walls. Not put up would outside walls). 1.2 Second, sequence the tasks, considering methods of construction. Focus on earliest possible start of tasks (rather than resource availability) unless stated assumptions. 2. Develop a Gantt chart programme: 2.1 Convert network diagram into a Gantt chart programme using MS Project. 3. Prepare task method statements 3.1 Estimated for historical rates or by applying the estimated hours per scheduled item, ability to code hours using SOQ or builder's take-off to work out activity duration.
