12 Learning Objective explain the communication means and essential documents for the development process

13 Construction Resources How do they communicate?

14 Communication in Building Processes Most commonly used methods: Working drawings Specifications Schedules Bill of quantities

15 Communication in Building Processes Working drawings Pictorial views of proposed buildings Include plans, elevations, sections and details

16 Communication in Building Processes Working drawings Purpose For the actual execution of the building works preparation of schedules and bill of quantities supervision and checking of the contractor s work

17 Communication in Building Processes Working drawings Plan view : In a floor plan, a horizontal plane cuts through the building so as to remove that part of the building above the cutting plane.

18 Communication in Building Processes Working drawings Elevation views: In an elevation, the image is projected onto a vertical picture plane.

19 Communication in Building Processes Working drawings Section views: In a section, a vertical plane cuts through the building lengthwise (longitudinal) or crosswise (transverse) so as to remove that part of the building in front of the cutting plane.

20 Communication in Building Processes Specifications provides fundamental information that cannot be incorporated in the drawings precise description of the standard of materials and workmanship required for the work prepared by design team Concrete Placement A. Measure, batch, mix and deliver each batch of concrete in accordance with BS :2002 and BS EN B. Do not add water to concrete during delivery or during placement.

21 Communication in Building Processes Schedule Similar components within a building are organized or grouped together in a tabulated manner Can be used by QS to prepare bill of quantities accurately and easily Can be used by contractors to prepare cost estimates Eg. Schedule of Internal Finishes Location Floor Wall Ceiling Living room Granite Plaster & Wallpaper Fibrous plaster & Paint Bedrooms Parquet Plaster & Paint Plaster & Paint Kitchen Homogenous tiles Ceramic tiles Plaster & Paint Bathroom Ceramic tiles Ceramic tiles Plaster & Paint

22 Communication in Building Processes Bills of Quantities Describes the amount of materials and labour required to carry out the work under various trades Purposes: To establish a price for a project before work commences on site To prepare valuations during the contract To price variations To prepare the final account

23 Communication in Building Processes Bills of Quantities Example Item Qty Unit Rate (priced by Contractor) Total Granite to floor Parquet to floor Ceramic tiles to walls Plaster to walls Emulsion paint to walls 40m 2 20m 2 30m 2 50m 2 50m 2 $200 $50 $70 $20 $5 $8,000 $1,000 $2,100 $1,000 $250
