almost all the countries construction industry is one of major industries, which impacts greatly on the GDP. In any country, the construction industry is recognized as an economic regulator which plays a major role in the economy, providing significant contribution to the national economy. (Cheung et al. 2006). Prefabricated construction has become the new era of construction with the development of the technology. With the modern developed economy, duration of a construction project and labour requirements
expensive and congested urban area (Gue & Tan, 1998). Good foundation design and construction practice means not only insulating to save energy, but also providing effective structural design as well as moisture, termite, and radon control techniques where appropriate (John, Jeffrey and Kenneth, 1991). Substructure construction work can consider as one of the challenging part during the construction period of high rise building because there are many potential risk exist compare with other parts. Besides
and lodging fee. These University or non-university building contains sleeping quarters and are used for mixed purposes, like sleeping, studying and recreating. Purposed of Dormitory Students have the chance to learn on how to become an independent person with disciplinary actions and good behavior. It also improves character formation under the circumstances capable for intellectual pursuits. Advantages and Disadvantages of Dorm Life Advantages Can arrive at classes or other school activities
INTRODUCTION The construction industry has a vast number of different projects to execute in different professions, this including roads, buildings, water reticulation, etc. For every building or construction to be constructed and completed within given specifications, given time frame, expected quality with risks mitigated, it requires a budget. The initial step to construct begins with the Client who will be having money to build. The client comes without the knowledge of what entails building the required
therefore concentration of contaminants are higher indoors than outdoors that causes indoor air pollution which results to health problems. Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) refers to the air quality within and around buildings and structures, especially as it relates to the health and comfort of building occupants. Understanding and controlling common pollutants indoors can help reduce your risk of indoor health concerns. Health effects from indoor air pollutants may be experienced soon after exposure or, possibly
infrastructure facilities while the advantages include lowering of the rate of getting chronic diseases due to the walk for transportation and convenience on the use of facilities. By comparing the advantages and disadvantages, it can be concluded that the positive effects of high-density living outweigh the negative ones. To minimize the adverse effects, it is suggested that the government should implement some regulations and instruction guidelines on the building constructions, such as limiting the minimum
fraction of the tailings separated out by tailing cyclone. Advantage of using this process is low operating cost and the construction of dam is cheap and the speed of subsequent raising of dam height is quick. This method is the the lowest initial cost and most popular design for a raised tailings embankment in area of low risk seismic . The major reasons for this is mainly due to the minimal amount of fill material required for initial construction and subsequent raising which normally consists of the
Procurement Methods The procedure adopted to procure construction work is regarded as the procurement method of any construction project. According to the (John Murdoch, 2000), the procurement method of a construction project defined as “The characteristic pattern of participant’s involvement, and the deposition of risks among them constitute the procurement method or procurement system for a project”. Strategies for the procurement of building projects have not changed significantly in the last 25
Rust is one of the main disadvantages. Metals can rust when they are revealed to moisture. Rust is produced by metal and oxygen from water in the air mixed together. Copper and bronze turn green when they rust. Another disadvantage of metals is that some of them are very expensive. Rhodium is one of the most valuable metals. The average price of a kilogram of ruthenium is $13
long been proven to be expensive, risky, and a threat to the environment. First, what does going nuclear really cost? Let us start where it all begin, the construction cost. All over the world, the actual cost for building a nuclear power plant is constantly far beyond the estimated cost. In Finland, for instance, nuclear power plant construction reached almost 100 % due to unexpected problems and delays (Davis, 2012). Even our only nuclear power plant in the Philippines, the Bataan Nuclear Power Plant
