STUDENT NAME:STUDENT ID:SUBJECT CODE:REPORT ON CIVIL ENGINEERING PROJECT
Executive SummaryCivil engineering project includes every possible project works of building construction, roadconstruction, dam construction and other related constructions by civil engineers significantly. Inthis respect, it is to be highlighted that this report study of civil engineering project specificallyincludes the knowledge and transferrable skills for civil engineering contracts as communicationskills, mathematical skills, analytical skills, leadership skills, creativity and problem solvingskills are highlighted rewardingly. Without these, project management in which feasibility, landacquisition, outline design, detailed design are included should be innovative in order to manageprojects remarkably. However, basically, these steps are to be followed by civil engineers,otherwise they may face troubles and difficulties while implementing various strategies andplans of project perspectives of clients and even they may delay to handover the projects to theclients, which provides unsatisfied situation among clients. Regarding this civil engineeringproject, another significant point is to be included that JCT and NEC contracts of Engineering,Gantt chart and PERT chart effective and innovative, rather incur significant and fruitfuloutcomes of all the projects that are constructed by civil engineers adequately. 2

IntroductionCivil engineering project signifies various constructing projects which include innovative andunique buildings, roads, dam and other respective projects significantly. In order to construct allsuch projects, civil engineers need to follow various steps which are included as projectmanagement. The problem statement of this report is to analyze knowledge and transferrableskills for civil engineering contracts and project management of constructions so that these stepscan be able to reach all the people to make them understand and to provide them all theconceptual details of civil engineering projects rewardingly.Developing knowledge and transferable skills for Civil Engineering ContractsCivil engineers are the ones without who people cannot be able to build up roads, buildings,dams, hotels, and other constructions which are necessary in this modern world. However, it isalso to be kept in mind that civil engineers need to acquire and follow various effectivetransferrable skills and knowledge in order to build suitable constructions according to contracts(Hwang and Ng, 2013 p.272). In this respect, it is to be signified that those steps are wellorganized by senior engineers so that civil engineers do not face any difficulties regarding theirworking strategies as well as to follow those steps significantly. However, these transferableskills are discussed thoroughly below:Mathematical skills: Civil engineers need to join math classes regularly in order to practicetrigonometry, calculus and geometry. This is because, these civil engineers need to practice andneed to learn various mathematical rules as they have to calculate various mathematical rulesduring their building construction, road construction, dam construction and so on. In this respect,it is to be identical to mention that in order to build roads, building, dam and other constructions,civil engineers also have to measure lengths and width accordingly. Therefore, they need tofollow and acquire mathematical skills as well (Ndekugri et al. 2013, p.185).Leadership skills: Leadership is another knowledge and transferrable skill of civil engineers.Civil engineers need to observe the techniques as well as the processes of other engineers’works. In this respect, it is also to be highlighted that all workers should be led by civil engineersso that they can be able to do their works remarkably. However, leadership skills must be appliedat the Professional Engineer's Level. This is because civil engineers should be positive regardingtheir leading skills. They even need to teach proper and effective techniques so that the other4
