Phases of the project

According to the project manager the overall project will be done through the designed Gantt
chart for this project.
Gantt charts illustrate the start and finish dates of the terminal elements and summary elements
of a project. Terminal elements and summary elements comprise the work breakdown structure
of the project.
As to the Gantt chart, the phases of the project activities are classified into four main phases.
These will start from the designation of the pre construction phases and end up with the delivery
of the laboratory. To delivery it within 18 October 2015 or in the earliest possible time to the
government, the phases is classified as bellows:

Pre construction phases
All the phases are largely depend on this phase. Project manager consider the Pre-Construction
and planning phase to be the most important phase in order for a project to be successfully
executed. It is during this phase that critical planning; including scheduling, budgeting, value
engineering and quality decisions are made that will have a significant impact upon construction
and the final cost of the project.
Scheduling
The project schedule is scrutinized regularly in the interest of staying on budget and getting the
laboratory building to the government. Now the project activities are progressing with the
schedule where 24 hours is filled up with activities.

In this project, pilling activities are still going on and because of rain and mud now working is
run on 12 hours basis. But after completion of pilling, total work will be going on 24 hours a day.
At that time two phase of worker will be scheduled. Each group of worker will work 12 hours a
day. Field in charge Ratan vuyia said that they have drawn a sketch of time schedule where every
work is under planned. They also established how many workers needed for pilling and for other
activities. If a worker absent how his work will be made up is also under that schedule. rf for any
circumstance they need to stop the work for certain time there emergency work schedule will be
activated to recover that time.
According to the project manager, schedule changes can affect any area of the project and can
have downstream impacts. During scheduling manager have to confirm the availability of the
resources before task, have to communicate with responsibilities to everyone involved in the
project, have to accurately estimate how long each step will take, and taking risk factors into
consideration.
Budgeting and financing
Budgeting finances for project begins with the creation of a detailed and accurate forecast of
total anticipated costs. According to the project manager they have to take every aspect of the
project into consideration, consult with others who will be involved, and calculate figures. There
is a mandatorily to create a contingency fund which will be used in emergency situations such as
work delays due to bad weather, underestimated resource costs and issues with suppliers.
Budgetary goal is to complete the project at or below the estimation, without accessing
contingency funds.

In case of government project total amount of budget generally is not sanctioned at a time. It may
come in certain installments. After completion of one phase, another instalment of money is
sanctioned for the project. Like that Anik trading has yet got 30 percent of total amount. After
completion of first floor another 50% will sanctioned for Anik trading. Getting an amount Anik
trading developed its budgeting plan that is in which section how much money needs to give
from the sanctioned budget. If they see more money will be needed for that specific phase, they
will cover it and try to sanction some more budgets in the second installments.

Initial construction phases
Building the foundation
The foundation is the wall on which the first floor rests. A concrete foundation is a base for the
structure. The soil of the location where the building will be built is rich enough. That is the
reason why the basement is on shallow foundation neglecting the deep foundation. 2 feet on
either side is made which is space needed to lay the foundation. Then situate and lay down the
boards in the planned foundation shape and size. Mixture is made thoroughly mixing cement and
water and don't let the mixture get too soupy. Mixture equipment is already installed to make the
mixing perfect.
Installation of utilities
There is need to have water, electric power, and toilet facilities available during the construction
process. There is already made connection to municipal water and sewer, this is where the pipes
are laid to the building and actually connected the water and sewer mains. As it will be made up
as a laboratory, the most essential utilities are water and gases and electricity.
Drainage system
According to the project manager the overall drainage system needs to deal with the removal of
two types of water: foul water from waste, wastage from the chemicals and surface water from
rainfall. The task of creating an effective drainage system can now be carried out in a quick,
accurate and straightforward manner, avoiding delays, wasted time and poor performance
because after some days passed rainy season is coming which can create a problematic situation
to the work. Foundation drains run along the footings and remove water accumulating in that
area.
Framing floors, walls and roof
The floors, walls, and roof are the focus of this construction activity. The task of this project has
not start yet. More extent the wood and bamboo will be used in framing. Materials such as steel,
brick and concrete are also used to frame. Project manager said these materials can support more
weight than wood framing, but are generally more costly and require special equipment and
skilled professionals. As the building is made up for the laboratory building, to make the
building strong there is no way unless using it. In making wall and roof, brick and concrete,
cement will be used.
Installation of windows, doors, exterior walls and roof coverings
Windows and doors especially doors are important features in this project. They are installed in
openings framed into walls and consequently are frequently referred to as "openings" in building
codes and engineering standards. Exterior walls and roof coverings are also very important in
this project, as the building is made for the laboratory purposes. The exterior walls and roof
covering will be made as if rain and water can not harm the building.
Finishes phases
Mechanical system installed: plumbing, electrical
Electricity is distributed throughout each floor via a network of electrical wire, conduits,
switches and electrical panels. Main distribution panels are located in mechanical equipment
rooms and electric closets and panels are located on individual floors for local distribution. There
will be an emergency power system to provide a backup electrical supply if the normal source of
power fail.
Interior finishes applied: walls, flooring, ceilings, fixtures, appliances and cabinet built.
Exterior landscaping plantings, walks and other landscape items


Post construction phases
Final finishing touches
In this stage the overall activities are strictly scrutinize by the company. In the workings there is
a lot of experience where all the activities can not done in a effective way. There may be failure
in some extent. Scrutinizing those things properly is the major role played by the project
manager. It will take some days for the company to give a finish touch at last.
Completion inspection and handover
There will be an inspection committee engaged by the government whose primary responsibility
is to examine the requirement of the buildings by the government as well as WHO with live
monitoring. If there any problem identified by the committee, the company will be forced to
make solution of that problem. When the inspection is completed perfectly, handover of the
building will be made to the government.
