Site Management

Subjectcode - CIV403

1. Rationale: Site management is a key element of the integrated project team. Site managenment is beneficial to
society as the effective and efficient management of construction projects which will avoid escalation of costs,
time overrun, wastage of resources, unlawful exploitation of labour and pollution of environment and safety
precautions. Site management makes sure that the various tasks are conducted smoothly. Without site management,
workers might not be authorized to work on their appointed tasks on time, equipment might not be distributed etc.
It is expected that the students should know the basics of the same to apply it in the field. Through this course
students will develop the desired skills and competencies which are expected from them for site management
related works

2. Course Outcomes/Skill Sets: At the end of the semester, students will be able to

CO-01| Prepare a construction site plan on a project-specific basis to include phasing, temporary utilities and
facilities, vertical and lateral transportation, storage facilities, security, safety, lighting, and
environmental requirements.

CO-02| Manage staffing requirements including hiring, replacement and clearly articulate the roles of cach
individual recruited to operate while managing specific activities of construction at a given project site.

CO-03| Collect data and perform calculations periodically to enable an estimator to propose alternative
construction methods, the right labour mix, equipment utilization and quality of construction for a
given construction project.

CO-04| Implement an effective communication system, rigorous record keeping, safe keeping on site of
product samples, project submittals, drawings etc and ensure compliance with safety norms as per
OHSAS standards.
