Q1 List the relevant construction codes, standards and regulations required
. to be used when developing documents used in the operation and
structure of costing and a contracting system?
Building codes set minimum requirements for constructing buildings. The codes
are not legally binding themselves. Rather, they serve as models for use in the
development of laws and regulations by legal jurisdictions. The primary aim of
building codes is to safeguard government health, security and overall welfare
as they relate to buildings and structures being constructed and occupied.
When officially adopted by the suitable governmental or private agency, the
construction code becomes the law of a specific jurisdiction.
International Code council (ICC), State and local buildings codes, International
green constructions codes are some of the codes and standards which are
essential in this system.

Q2 According to the legislation, explain the following:

Two quality standards which were found to be beneficial while doing this
activity is as follows:
1.) The ISO 9001 standard specifies quality management system
requirements where an organization requires to show its capacity to
continuously deliver goods that fulfil customer demands and relevant
regulatory requirements.
2.) ISO 9000 is an international standard designed to support the generic
core of a quality system standard for a wide spectrum of sectors and
economic sectors. It describes how a provider can set up an efficient
quality system that shows commitment to quality and capacity to satisfy
client demands.

Q4 Identify 2 types of construction drawings and specifications used in the

. construction industry?
To begin any building project, drawings are the most significant things we need.
For distinct reasons, there are distinct kinds of sketches. Building drawings
provide detailed measurements of each building component and clear section.
The drawings are justified and altered after review and lastly approved for
building. The various kinds of building drawings are mentioned below.
1.) Architectural drawings: This sort of drawing gives a full perspective of a
construction. It shows the location of the building and all sections of the
building where it will be located. There are various kinds of
architectural drawings with various names such as plan, elevation,
section, etc. It is used for a number of purposes, including the need to
create a design concept into a consistent proposition, to share thoughts
and concepts, to persuade customers of the merits of a design, to allow
a building contractor to build it as a record of the finished job, or to
record an existing construction.

2.) Structural drawings: This sort of drawing gives a full perspective of a

construction. It shows the location of the building and all sections of the
building where it will be located. There are various kinds of
architectural drawings with various names such as plan, elevation,
section, etc. Structural drawings are used to advance the idea of the
Architect by specifying the shape and position of all components of the
structure–allowing that structure to be built on site. For the preparing of
the reinforcement drawings, structural drawings are also used. Some of
the commonly used specifications of this type of drawing includes:
 Setting on-site concrete structure dimensions.
 Plans, segments and elevations displaying the design, sizes
and concentrations within the framework of all concrete
members.
 Location of all concreting job holes, chases, pockets, fixings
and other products.
 Notes on building requirements, finishes and all cross-
references.
 Provide the detailer with the layout and sectional information
needed to specify the length, shape and number of each
reinforcement bar type.

records of testing and materials Efficient material management can lead to significant project cost

and interest charges on the surplus material inventory may be
incurred. Unless special care is taken, materials may deteriorate
during storage or be robbed. Delays and extras may be incurred if
there is no material needed for specific operations. Ensuring
timely material flow is a major material management problem.
Thus, keeping a record of all the tools, equipment, testing data,
availability of resources in each department etc. becomes very
useful in improving the organizational efficiency. The efficiency
of materials management should be evaluated in order to manage
and control materials efficiently.

22. Why might it be necessary to test materials supplied to a site. Describe 2
testing methods

Materials Testing is carried out for a variety of reasons and can provide a
wealth of information on the materials, prototypes or product samples
tested. The data gathered during testing and the final test results can be very
useful for engineers, designers, managers of production and others. Some
common reasons for why material testing is essential includes meeting
regulatory agency criteria, selecting suitable materials and treatments for an
application, Evaluating product design or enhancement specifications. Two
testing methods for ensuring the quality of materials includes physical testing
and laboratory testing.

23 What is the process to formally finalise the material list for a job, and who
should be involved?

Finalising material requirement largely depends on the type of work to be

done and the essential requirements for the purpose. And finalising materials
is of great importance as it has a direct impact over scheduling and budget
requirement of the project. There are several parameters which needs to be
considered before making any choice. Factors like, quantity, work
requirement, availability, price etc. needs to be considered before making the
final call. This decision making process involves all the concerned parties like
seller, contractor, architectures, owners etc.

24 Provide 2 actions that could be taken if damage is detected after installation

of a product

If in case, any damage to the product is observed after the completion of

installation process, then few possible action which may be taken includes:

1.) Exchange of material by the supplier

2.) Legal action if the product was damaged from the beginning and the
supplier refuses to exchange.

25 Describe the basic workplace safety requirements of building site.

Basic requirements to ensure safety at construction workplace includes:

 Safety training on new machinery.

 Safety training for new staff.
 Safety training refresher courses for current staff.
 Broad and separate entry and exit points.
 Safety nets.
 Access to basic requirements in case of emergency.
 Access to first aid services.

Establish a definite plan at the very start of a new partnership for how to
interact with providers. This guarantees an efficient company relationship–
fewer shortages, more timely deliveries, fewer rush delivery expenses and, at
best, fewer headaches for you. There's no space for upgrades, that's not to
say, but make sure our updates are meaningful.

Establishing clear understanding of the requirements, ensuring timely

some of the practices which can be considered to establish a proper
