House Construction Project Report
PROJECT PREFACE
The project basically includes the estimation, rate analysis and time required
for the construction of a 15 marla house. The project basically involves the use
of a software ms project in which different tasks of construction, their time,
resources and rates are calculated.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
I have taken efforts in this project. However, it would not have been possible
without the kind support and help of my Teachers especially I am greatly
thankful to sir Ubaid Ahmed Mughal lecturer of civil engineering department
who has been an excellent guide and also a great source of inspiration for me I
would also like to pay gratitude to all the teaching and non-teaching staff
members in this mighty project who helped me directly or indirectly and eased
my work.
ABSTRACT
Construction Project usually takes large time period. Therefore, it has taken
about one year to complete.in this project, MS project was used for planning
of the multi-story building.
Construction planning and scheduling is one of the important and key
tool in a construction project.Therefore the study on construction planning and
scheduling must be conducted .By use of MsProject we will have an estimate
of the time reqired to complete the construction process, Rate analysis and the
resources required.
PROJECT INTRODUCTION:
Title:
To make an estimate of the time required, rate analysis and the resources used
by using ms project.
estimation of the project. The project must be completed with in the required
time and the cost.

Methods of Estimation:
There are many methods available for detail estimation but two commonly
used methods
1. Separate or individual wall method
2. Center-line Method
1) Separate or individual wall method
In this method:
I. The walls running in longitudinal direction are termed as "long walls and
the walls running in the transverse direction are termed, as "Short walls",
without keeping in mind which wall is lesser in length and which wall is greater
in length.
II. Lengths of long walls are measured as "Out-to out" and those of short walls
as "In-to-in".
Long wall length out-to-out
= Center to center length + half breadth on one Side + half breadth on other
side
= Center to center length + one breadth
Short wall length in-to-in
= Center to center length - half breadth on one Side - half breadth on other
side
= Center to center length - one breadth
III. Different quantities are calculated by multiplying the length X breadth X
height.
For buildings having cross or partition walls, for every junction, half
breadth of the respective item or footing is to be deducted from the
total centre length.
Thus in the case of a building with one partition wall or cross wall having
two junctions, deduct one breadth of the respective item of work from
the total centre length.
For buildings having different types of walls, each set of walls shall have
to be dealt separately.
Find the total centre length of all walls of one type and proceed in the
same manner as described above. Similarly find the total centre length
of walls of second type and deal this separately, and so on.
Suppose the outer walls (main walls) are of A type and inner cross walls
are of B type.
Then all A type walls shall be taken jointly first, and then all B type walls
shall be taken together separately.
In such cases, no deduction of any kind need be made for A type walls,
but when B type walls are taken, for each junction deduction of half
breadth of A type walls (main Walls) shall have to be made from the
total centre length of B type walls.
At corners of the building where two walls are meeting, no subtraction
or addition is required.
In the figure, the double cross-hatched areas marked P,Q,R, & S come
twice, while blank areas, A,B,C, & D do not come at all, but these
portions being equal in magnitude, we get the correct quantity.
RATE ANALYSIS:
Definition: Rate analysis is a technique to determine the rates of the given
quantities that are to be used in the construction process. The project should
complete with in the required time and cost.
The unit price of each material is multiplied with the required quantity in order
to get the rate of that quantity. Same is for the work and cost type resources

subcontractor is a person who is hired by a general contractor (or prime
contractor, or main contractor) to perform a specific task as part of the overall
project and is normally paid for services provided to the project by the
originating general contractor. While the most common concept of a
subcontractor is in building works and civil engineering, the range of
opportunities for subcontractor is much wider and it is possible that the
greatest number now operate in the information technology and information
sectors of business

PROJECT SCHEDULE:
Network Diagram
Network Diagram is an important aspect of Critical Path Method.
. A network shows the sequence of work, interdependencies, and
interrelationships among project activities.
The logical constraints representing the relationships among the
activities are then defined. The final product of network development is the
graphical display of sequences in which activities are performed. Using a
network diagram for project scheduling requires the realistic and accurate
estimates of duration for each activity.
