Abstract :

Construction planning is an important part of the overall management process. The planning and management includes planning the work, doing the work, correlating plan and progress information and controlling the work, the three inter-related factors of time, money and quality need to be controlled in a proper way. Completion of many of the projects nowadays is not in time. This will lead to an increase in overheads as well as various other factors. It will not only reduce the expected revenues but also will affect the reputation of the contractor.Scheduling is one of the making functions in construction project to determine the sequence of activities necessary to complete a project. The scheduling techniques provide important crucial to a project success, it indicates which activities must be complete “as planned” if the project has to be “on time “and which activities have some flexibility. The problems inherent in the detailed design-toconstruction process and describe an integrated system that incorporates the technology of computer-based scheduling software. A planning method is presented which needs little detailed information about Productivities and work volumes and may be rapidly produced. The plan ings an overall view of the project by grouping the main activities that are highly interdependent. The concept of the best rhythm for each group of activities focuses on the sequence of work, continuity of labor team working and completeness rather than on pure schedule goals. Many characteristics of this method are to eliminate waste, flexible planning and scheduling sequencing.
