Category: 9:PLANNING OF BUILDING

Construction planning is the specific process a construction manager uses to lay out how they will manage and execute a construction project, from building design to completion.

A building plan is a comprehensive visual representation of a building project that gives an outline of design and layout, including concepts, technical specifications, and material requirements.

This process can be broken down into five phases – planning/design, pre-construction, procurement, construction, and post-construction. Depending on the size and scope of the project, each phase has its own set of challenges

Planning of a building includes various principles such as aspect, prospect, orientation, privacy, circulation, grouping, roominess etc. Today we will talk about the principle of orientation. so, now let’s start. Orientation means arrangement of rooms with respect to the north direction

It involves the choice of technology, the definition of work tasks, the estimation of the required resources and durations for individual tasks, and the identification of any interactions among the different work tasks. A good construction plan is the basis for developing the budget and the schedule for work.

It is concerned with deciding in advance what is to be done in future, when, where and by whom it is to be done. It is a process of thinking before doing. “Without the activities determined by planning, there would be nothing to organize, no one to activate and no need to control”.
