Project Planning: On-site Medium Rise Building Construction - 2019

This project provides a comprehensive overview of planning and supervising on-site medium-rise building construction. It begins with an introduction to the competitive nature of the construction industry and the adoption of demolition procedures to create space for new buildings. The project delves into the detailed planning and scheduling of the site, including the breakdown of tasks into phases, the use of Gantt charts, and the importance of disconnecting utilities before demolition. The demolition phase is explored, covering drawings, work to be done, safety protocols, and major risks associated with the process. The subsequent construction phase is outlined, focusing on foundation laying, potential OHS risks, and construction methods. Procurement of materials, construction sequences, and strategies for overcoming project delays are also addressed. The project further examines temporary services and structures, plant requirements, and compliance with safety regulations. Procedures for purchasing or hiring equipment, documentation of health and safety for workers, and strategies for material management are also included. Finally, the project covers OHS procedures for all site personnel, risk handling strategies, and the importance of communication strategies such as induction, toolbox meetings, and safety walks. The project provides a complete guide to successful construction project planning and execution.
