CONSTRUCTION TIME OVERRUN

Worldwide problem : seldom projects completed on time. In Nigeria : 50% projects experienced time overrun with an average
percentage escalation period up to 188%. In Bosnia and Herzegovina : 51.40% project experienced time overrun In Jordan : 82% of projects are delayed In Saudi Arabia and Ghana : 70% of projects were delayed In Malaysia : 18.2% of the public sector projects and 29.45% of private sector projects only are completed on time.
Time Delay can be due to one or more reasons including problems
of financing and payment for completed works, poor contract management, changes in site conditions , shortage of materials, design changes , weather condition, etc. Initial conceptionalisation not captured and formalised before calling of Tenders changes during construction. Integrated Master Implementation Programme.
CONSTRUCTION COST OVERRUN

Cost is a major problem both in developed and developing countries.
The trend is more severe in developing countries where these overruns sometimes exceeds 100% of the anticipated cost of the project. United Kingdom (UK) : nearly 1/3 of the clients complaint that their projects generally experienced budget overrun. In Nigeria : A minimum average percentage escalation cost of projects was 14%. In Slovenia : 51 % projects faced price overrun In Croatia : 81% projects faced cost overrun In Bosnia and Herzegovina : 41.23% of the projects faced cost overrun. In Uganda : (Northern-by-pass project in Kampala) the cost overrun was more than 100% of the contract price.
CONSTRUCTION COST OVERRUN

Worldwide research in transportation projects : 9 out of 10 projects face cost
overrun. The common overruns are between 50 to 100%. In Malaysia : only 46.8% and 37.2% of public and private sectors projects completed within the budget respectively.
The factors identified that contribute to cost overrun : lack of
contractor s experience, poor site management and supervision, inaccurate time and cost estimates, schedule delay, frequent design changes, fluctuation of prices of materials, cash flow and financial difficulties faced by contractors .
CONSTRUCTION QUALITY
Construction carried out according the specification and detail
construction drawings. Materials approving committee Method statement Site management and control of works (QA/QC)
EXCESSIVE RESOURCES CONSUMPTION

Built environment has significant impact on resources : consuming
1/6 of the worlds freshwater withdrawals, 1/4 of wood harvest and 2/5 of materials. About 40% of the energy used is linked to the construction and maintenance of buildings. Excessive resource and energy use : Resulted in growing demand for raw materials, are largely responsible for the depletion of natural resources worldwide, acceleration of global warming and detrimental wastage affecting our ecological integrity.
CONSTRUCTION WASTE
Waste is one of the serious problems in construction projects. Waste has direct impact on the productivity, material loss and completion time
of project resulting in loss of a significant amount of revenue. Waste contributes to around 30-35% of a project s production cost. The amount of construction materials wasted on the site is relatively high and equals 9% by weight of the purchased materials.
Construction waste can be generated because of one or more
reasons including frequent design changes, poor quality of materials, workers' mistakes during construction, poor planning, poor site management, ordering errors, materials not in compliance with specification, effect of weather, etc.
CONSTRUCTION WASTE
A study conducted on 30 construction sites in Malaysia identified
six types of waste materials which includes concrete (12.32%), metals (9.62%), bricks (6.54%), plastics (0.43%), timber (69.10%) and other wastes (2%) Hence, it is timely for Malaysia to adopt a systematic and efficient waste management strategy which would minimise the generation of waste at different level. Advanced tool likes lean construction techniques can help in reducing waste at source and can minimised the waste produced during the operation by re-using and re-cycling.
Adopting waste minimization strategy like recycling and
reusing material can save 2.5% of the total budget.
CONSTRUCTION WASTE MANAGEMENT STRATEGY
ENVIRONMENTAL THREAT
Environmental Threat due to built environment : It consumes large
amounts of natural resources and produces a great deal of pollutants. Ethics of construction players: Not serious about environmental protection at construction sites, assume that a construction site is only a temporary setup, ignoring source of pollutants CO2 emission : Contributing to the global warming and extreme weather. Other Impacts : The harvest of timber leads to the lost of natural forests, widespread use of toxic chemicals in materials. Site clearings for development especially on slopes, etc.
SCHEME OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
SUSTAINABLE CONSTRUCTION
In November 1994, the First International Conference on Sustainable
Construction held in Tampa, Florida, USA, the conference convener Kibert defined sustainable construction as, Creating a healthy built environment using resource-efficient, ecologically-based principles. Sustainable construction involves a commitment to:
Economic sustainability increasing profitability by making more efficient
use of resources, including labour, materials, water and energy. Environmental sustainability preventing harmful and potential irreversible effects on the environment by careful use of natural resources, minimizing waste, protecting and where possible enhancing the environment. Social sustainability responding to the needs of people at whatever stage of involvement in the construction process (from commissioning to demolition), providing high customer satisfaction and working closely with clients, suppliers, employees and local communities
OBJECTIVES OF SUSTAINABLE CONSTRUCTION

Environmental dimension:
Increase material efficiency by reducing the material demand of
non-renewable goods Reduce the material intensity via substitution technologies Enhance material recyclability Reduce and control the use and dispersion of toxic materials Reduce the energy required for transforming goods and supplying services Support the instruments of international conventions and agreements Maximize the sustainable use of biological and renewable resources Consider the impact of planned projects on air, soil, water, flora, and fauna.
THE IMPACT OF THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT
OBJECTIVES OF SUSTAINABLE CONSTRUCTION

Economic dimension:
Consider life-cycle costs Internalize external costs Consider alternative financing mechanisms Develop appropriate economic instruments to promote sustainable
consumption Consider the economic impact on local structures.

Social dimension:
Enhance a participatory approach by involving stakeholders Promote public participation Promote the development of appropriate institutional frameworks Consider the influence on the existing social framework Assess the impact on health and the quality of life.
CHALLENGES IN SUSTAINABLE CONSTRUCTION

Shifting to sustainability : A new paradigm where sustainable objectives are
within the building design and construction industry. Key Action : The objectives should be considered in decision making at all stages of the life cycle of the facility. Figure below shows the evolution and challenges of the sustainable construction concept in a global context.
GREEN BUILDINGS
Green building practices are:
environmentally responsible and resource-efficient to promote building practices that conserve energy and water
resources, preserve open spaces. to minimise the emission of toxic substances to harmonise with the local climate, traditions, culture and the surrounding environment to sustain and improve the quality of human life maintaining the capacity of the ecosystem at local and global levels.

GREEN BUILDING INDEX

The Green Building Index, developed by Pertubuhan Akitek Malaysia
(PAM) and the Association of Consulting Engineers Malaysia (ACEM) is a rating system that provides guidelines for developers for designing and constructing green buildings. GBI (Green Building Index) comprises of 6 key criteria as:
Energy Efficiency, Indoor Environmental Quality, Sustainable Site Planning and Management, Material and Resources, Water Efficiency, and Innovation
GBI CRITERIA
Energy Efficiency (EE) Improve energy consumption by optimizing building orientation, minimizing solar heat gain through the building envelope, harvesting natural lighting, adopting the best practices in building services including use of renewable energy, and ensuring proper testing, commissioning and regular maintenance. Indoor Environment Quality (EQ) Achieve good quality performance in indoor air quality, acoustics, visual and thermal comfort. These will involve the use of low volatile organic compound materials, application of quality air filtration, proper control of air temperature, movement and humidity.
GBI CRITERIA
Sustainable Site Planning & Management (SM) Selecting appropriate sites with planned access to public transportation, community services, open spaces and landscaping. Avoiding and conserving environmentally sensitive areas through the redevelopment of existing sites and brown fields. Implementing proper construction management, storm water management and reducing the strain on existing infrastructure capacity Materials & Resources (MR) Promote the use of environment-friendly materials sourced from sustainable sources and recycling. Implement proper construction waste management with storage, collection and reuse of recyclables and construction formwork and waste. Water Efficiency (WE) Rainwater harvesting, water recycling and water-saving fittings. Innovation (IN) Innovative design and initiatives that meet the objectives of the GBI

GREEN PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT SYSTEM IN CONSTRUCTION (GREEN PASS)
Introduction
Green Performance Assessment System In Construction (Green Pass) is designed to meet this need through a standard conformance that promoted sustainable construction in an integrated manner with other with other Construction Industry Standards (CIS). ii. This standard is based on minimum requirements for buildings and systems using performance-related provisions and complements existing standards to form a comprehensive assessment system for green building construction. iii. The Green PASS has incorporated international standards in its development, specifically PAS 2050, Common Carbon Metrics (United Nations SBCI), United Nations GHG Protocol, ANSI and other relevant standards inline with emerging global technological and sustainability requirements.
i.
Scope
The Green PASS estimates the carbon emission from building construction
works throughout a buildings life cycle. Assessment system covers construction, operations, renovation and demolition. The evaluation of Green PASS is divided into:
i. ii.
Building Construction Building Operations
Embodied carbon is referred to as COe 2 emitted during the construction or
retrofitting processes. Operational carbon is CO 2 emitted during building. Green PASS adopt minimum standards of performance for baselings in key areas e.g. water, waste, IEQ (Indoor Environment Quality)
Objectives of Green PASS

To evaluate the environmental impact of construction and operational performance of building in relation to carbon emission reduction. ii. To give due recognition for Low Carbon building construction and operations. iii. To align and support the Low Carbon Cities Framework and Assessment System (LCCF&AS). iv. To encourage peer review of construction and operations management practices towards sustainable construction. v. To increase awareness of carbon reduction and environmental impact in construction and building operations amongst project stakeholders.
i.
Objectives of Green PASS

The outcomes of the Green PASS provide information on the: i.Baseline emissions and project emissions from five elements: Site, Material, Energy, Water, Waste ii.A non-GHG qualitative and quantitative analysis of Indoor Environmental Quality, iii.Percentage reduction in carbon emissions iv.Opportunity for further improvement
Application of Green PASS

Green PASS assesses the whole performance of a
building in terms of carbon emission reduction based on: Site, Material, Energy, Water & Waste
while indoor environmental quality (IEQ) is a qualitative and quantitave assessment of building occupants comfort and overall satisfaction.

The Concept & Role of PM in Construction Industry

The Rightful Roles :
- The Client determines the WHAT. - The Construction industry determines the HOW. - The Construction Industry is obligated to results, based on key role of Project Management in conceptual development, optimisation of know-how and innovative processes. - Independent role of Project Management in protecting Clients overall interest is assured as it is the Project Managers main interest. - Independent Project Management will result in the right balance throughout the Project between Budget, Quality, Time, Information & Organization forcing all involved Parties to clearly focused on Clients aim and objectives. -The (non-technical) Client can focus on his principal role in the Project without placing a load on his organization. Thus, retaining his valuable resources for his Core Business.

Jaillon and Poon(2008), Sustainable construction aspects of using prefabrication in dense urban environment: a Hong Kong case study. (7 projects)

It must be mentioned here that the
traditional in-situ construction practices leads to large wastage in the form of timber used for formworks, excess material, errors in dimensions and measurements, high labour utilisation leading to high social costs and other forms of temporary works. The use of offsite construction can eliminate the problem of wastage substantially and reduce construction time.

However, due to ease of securing
relatively cheaper foreign labour innovative construction technology and techniques has not made a significant impact on the Malaysian construction industry and as much, cannot provide the economies of scale that is needed to transform the construction industry from one that is labour intensive, to one that is technology intensive.
Definition of Industrialized Building Systems (IBS)

VALUE ENGINEERING
VALUE ENGINEERING AND MANAGEMNET

Value Management and life cycle costing is about managing
overall development process by making the appropriate decisions when one moves from one phase of development to the other based on 5 basic controls: TIME, COST, QUALITY, ORGANIZATION and INFORMATION
It does not happen by chance or when the need arise. It has
to be planned and structured to make it happened affectively. Value management is NOT just a cost cutting exercise.
AUTOMATED CONSTRUCTION
According to the Architectural Institute of Japan, 150 types of
construction robots have been developed in the field of building construction. Robots category
Robots for structure construction works , including fire-proofing, steel
welding, iron-bar placing, concrete placing, concrete finishing, and remote wirereleasing. Robots for work completion , including exterior wall spraying, ceiling panel placing, and light-weight wall panel handling. Robots for inspection works, including outer wall tile inspection, and clean room inspection. Robots for maintenance works , including coating glass cleaning, and floor cleaning.
A total of 12 systems has been thus far developed by eight
construction companies and introduced on more than 20 construction sites.

THE FUTURE OF SUSTAINABLE CONSTRUCTION Summit on the Global Agenda, Dubai, UAE, 7-9 Nov. 2008
WE CANNOT MOVE TO A POSTIVE FUTURE WITHOUT REVOLUTIONIZING CONSTRUCTION.
"Teach your children what we have taught ours, that the earth is our mother. Whatever befalls the earth befalls the sons of the earth. The earth does not belong to man; man belongs to the earth. Man did not weave the web of life; he is merely a strand in it. We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors; we borrow it from our children."
THE GREAT leader of the Native American Suquamish Tribe, Chief Seattle or See-ahth
Contribution : plays vital role in economic growth, helps in improving the quality
of life of its citizens Negative Impacts : implication to the environment and social aspect of the country, emission of CO 2 by buildings contributed to the global warming and extreme weather Resource Consumption : About 40% of the world's resource and energy use is linked to the construction and maintenance of buildings. Green building approach : environmentally responsible and resource-efficient, promotes building practices that conserve energy and water resources, preserve open spaces, reduce energy consumption up to 50%, CO 2 emission up to 39%, water used up to 40% and finally reduction in solid waste up to 70%. Advanced technological methods : Lean techniques, Good Project Management Practise, Industrialized Building System (IBS), Building Information Modelling (BIM), Value Engineering (VE), Sustainable Supply Chain Management (SSCM) etc.
