QUESTION 3: Discuss on the Effects of Procurement System in the performance of construction projects I. INTRODUCTION Procurement is also called as sourcing, which means gathering services and goods from the preparation and of request through the approval of statement for payment. This involves purchase planning, financing, making the purchase, inventory control and stores, specific development, standard determination, supplier research and selection, supply contract administration, disposal

Factors affecting successful completion of infrastructure projects 1.2 Statement of the problem Maintaining steady completion of construction projects, has until recently, been an issue of serious concern both to the client and contractors. Standish Group Report (2007) noted that mega projects fail at a higher rate than small/medium sized projects. According to Khatak(2009), the main reasons and causes of project/task failure are embodied in four

2.1 General Seismic evaluation and retrofitting strategies are mainly focused in this thesis. However, there are many good references that can be used as a starting point for research such as ATC40 manual for seismic evaluation and retrofitting of concrete buildings. This chapter focuses on recent contributions related to seismic evaluation and various retrofitting schemes and past efforts most closely related to the needs of the present work. For, the purpose of the present investigation, the literature

analysis of buildings helps to simulate the amount of energy used in a building. It is very important as it helps to discover and ascertain new ways of conserving energy and ensuring energy efficiency of building components. Building developers, construction engineers are increasingly interested in creating more energy efficient reason, and for this purpose whole building energy simulation programs are being used to determine strategies that save energy and are cost effective. The most common way available

especially earthquake. Seismic engineers have tried many ways like having multi-layered stone infrastructures that introduced stiffness and rigidity that could resist frail earthquake movements, but then having those strongly built firm stone constructions would not be enough since it cannot withhold forceful and high level of magnitude and intensity of this catastrophic event. Seismic base isolation refers to the systematic way of reducing interaction between the ground and the structure. Base isolation

To demonstrate the process of how Vyse possibly used parts of one figure to construct another is as follows. By now, Vyse had accumulated a library of piece moulds. Therefore, having slip-cast the necessary parts from the moulds of The Pedlar. The parts intended for transposition such as the head, without the hat, this is added later, the torso from the waist upwards, and the neckerchief. A composite of the left sleeve, complete with its three-buttoned cuff, and possibly the basket without the flowers

reputation to up hold and to do so we must we must treat with respect not only our clients but their neighbors as well. One of of complaints lodged against Retrofit is our construction trash and debris littering nearby properties. Another problem is theft of company resources and improper clean up practices during construction. The later problem could possibly be resolved by remembering downtime is cleanup time. Therefore I am presenting this list of instructions to be followed whenever you leave

Prevent Costly Damages With a New Roof Installation When you have a new roof installed, it not only provides protection for the contents of your home against the elements and animals, but it is an investment for your home as well. A roof replacement can also help keep the heat and air in your home, which may help to reduce the cost of your utility bills each month. A shingle roof generally lasts 15-20 years; however, if you live in an area that is susceptible to extreme weather, such as snow, hail
