38、ent to them .由于大多数业主通常只对获得特定类型的建筑物感兴趣，因而他们应当对适合他们的建设类型的实务有着一定的了解。Likewise, the construction industry is a conglomeration（混合物） of quite diverse segments and products. Some owners may procure a constructed facility only once in a long while and tend to look for short term advantages. However ,many own
39、ers require periodic acquisition of new facilities and/or rehabilitation（修复） of existing facilities. It is to their advantage to keep the construction industry healthy and productive. Collectively, the owners have more power to influence the construction industry than they realize because, by their
40、individual actions, they can provide incentives（激励） for innovation, efficiency and quality in construction . 这些业主有着他们自己也没有意识到的影响建筑业的能力，因为通过其个人行为，他们可以对建筑业的创新、效率以及质量施加积极的或消极的影响。It is to the interest of all parties that the owners take an active interest in the construction and exercise beneficial infl
41、uence on the performance of the industry.Residential housing construction includes single-family houses, multi-family dwellings, and high-rise apartments .During the development and construction of such projects, the developers or sponsors who are familiar with the construction industry usually serv
42、e as surrogate（代理） owners and take charge, making necessary contractual agreements for design and construction, and arranging the financing and sale of the completed structures .Often, a slight increase in total demand will cause a substantial investment in construction, since many housing projects
43、can be started at different locations by different individuals and developers at the same time .由于许多住宅项目可以在不同的地点由不同的开发商同时开工，因此往往市场总需求的一点微小增加就可能引起此类建筑投资的急剧增加。Institutional and commercial building construction encomprasses a great variety of project types and sizes, such as schools and universities, m
44、edical clinics and hospitals, recreational facilities（娱乐设施） and sports stadiums, retail chain stores and large shopping centers, warehouse and light manufacturing plants, and skyscrapers for offices and hotels, as is shown in Figure1-3 .Because of the higher costs and greater sophistication of insti
45、tutional and commercial buildings in comparison with residential housing, this market segment is shared by fewer competitors .与住宅类房屋建设相比，此类房屋建设成本成本高且功能复杂，所以市场份额由较少的竞争者来瓜分。Specialized industrial construction usually involves very large scale projects, with a high degree of technological complexity, s
46、uch as oil refineries, steel mills, chemical processing plants and coal-fired or nuclear power plants, as is shown in Figure1-4 .专业化工业项目建设涉及范围很广，含有高等级技术复杂性的这样一类项目建设，包括炼油厂、钢铁厂、化工厂和火力电站、核电站，如图1-4所示。Infrastructure and heavy construction includes projects such as highways, mass transit systems, tunnels,
47、 bridges, pipelines, drainage（排水） systems and sewage(污水) treatment plants, as is shown in Figure1-5. Most of these projects are publicly owned and therefore financed either through bonds or taxes. This category of construction is characterized by a high degree of mechanization, which has gradually r
48、eplaced some labor intensive operations.The engineers and builders engaged in infrastructure construction are usually highly specialized since each segment of the market requires different types of skills .由于不同的项目需要不同的专门技术，参与基础设施项目建设的设计方和建造方都具有相当程度的专业化水平。Traditionally, the owner engages an architect
49、ural and engineering (A/E) firm or consortium as technical consultant in developing a preliminary design. After the engineering design and financing arrangements for the project are completed, the owner will enter into a construction contract with a general contractor either through competitive bidd
50、ing or negotiation.The A/E firms, which are engaged by the owner as the prime professionals for design and inspection, have become more isolated from the construction process. In order to reduce the cost of construction, some owners introduce value engineering, which seeks to reduce the cost of cons
51、truction by soliciting（征求） a second design that might cost less than the original design produced by the A/E firm. In particular, designs will be closely scrutinized（详细检查） for their constructibility. However, an owner engaging a design/construct firm must insure that the quality of the constructed f
52、acility is not sacrificed by the desire to reduce the time or the cost for completing the project. Also, it is difficult to make use of competitive bidding in this type of design/construct process. As a result, owners must be relatively sophisticated（老练） in negotiating realistic and cost-effective c
53、onstruction contracts. In recent years, a new breed of construction managers (CM) offers professional services from the inception to the completion of a construction project. These construction managers mostly come from the ranks of A/E firms or general contractors who may or may not retain dual rol
54、es in the service of the owners. Construction ContractorsThe function of a general contractor is to coordinate all tasks in a construction project. Unless the owner performs this function or engages a professional construction manager to do so, a good general contractor who has worked with a team of
55、 superintendents（监管者）, specialty contractors or subcontractors together for a number of projects in the past can be most effective in inspiring loyalty and cooperation. Specialty contractors include mechanical, electrical, foundation, excavation（挖掘）, and demolition（拆） contractors among others. They
56、usually serve as subcontractors to the general contractor of a project. In some cases, legal statutes may require an owner to deal with various specialty contractors directly.Major material suppliers include specialty contractors in structural steel fabrication and erection, sheet metal（金属片）, ready
57、mixed concrete delivery, reinforcing steel bar detailers, roofing, glazing etc. Major equipment suppliers for industrial construction include manufacturers of generators, boilers and piping and other equipment.Chapter2 Organizing for Project Management2.1 What is Project ManagementThe management of
58、construction projects requires knowledge of modern management as well as an understanding of the design and construction process. While the relevant technology, institutional arrangements or processes will differ, the management of such projects has much in common with the management of similar type
59、s of projects in other specialty or technology domains such as aerospace, pharmaceutical and energy developments.Generally, project management is distinguished from the general management of corporations by the mission-oriented nature of a project. A project organization will generally be terminated
60、 when the mission is accomplished. According to the Project Management Institute, the discipline of project management can be defined as follows: Project management is the art of directing and coordinating human and material resources throughout the life of a project by using modern management techn
61、iques to achieve predetermined objectives of scope, cost, time, quality and participation satisfaction. 项目管理是在项目的整个周期内，用现代的管理技术指挥和协调人力和物质资源以实现范围、成本、工期、质量和分享成就等预定目标。The basic ingredients for a project management framework may be represented schematically in Figure 2-1.General managementSpecial knowle
62、dge domainsSupporting disciplinesSubsequently, the functions of project management for construction generally include the following: Specification of project objectives and plans including delineation of scope, budgeting, scheduling, setting performance requirements, and selecting project participan
63、ts. Maximization of efficient resource utilization through procurement of labor, materials and equipment according to the prescribed schedule and plan. Implementation of various operations through proper coordination and control of planning, design, estimating, contracting and construction in the en
64、tire process. Development of effective communications and mechanisms for resolving conflicts among the various participants. Professional construction management refers to a project management team consisting of a professional construction manager and other participants who will carry out the tasks
65、of project planning, design and construction in an integrated manner. Contractual relationships among members of the team are intended to minimize adversarial （敌对的）relationships and contribute to greater response within the management group.2.2 Professional Construction ManagementA professional cons
66、truction manager is a firm specialized in the practice of professional construction management which includes: Work with owner and the A/E firms from the beginning and make recommendations（建议） on design improvements, construction technology, schedules and construction economy. Propose design and con
67、struction alternatives if appropriate, and analyze the effects of the alternatives on the project cost and schedule. Monitor subsequent development of the project in order that these targets are not exceeded without the knowledge of the owner. Coordinate procurement of material and equipment and the
68、 work of all construction contractors, and monthly payments to contractors, changes（变更）, claims（索赔） and inspection for conforming design requirements. Perform other project related services as required by owners. Professional construction management is usually used when a project is very large or co
69、mplex. The organizational features that are characteristics of mega-projects can be summarized as follows:The overall organizational approach for the project will change as the project advances. The functional organization may change to a matrix which may change to a project organization (not necess
70、arily in this order). Within the overall organization, there will probably be functional, project, and matrix suborganizations all at the same time. This feature greatly complicates（搞复杂） the theory and the practice of management, yet is essential for overall cost effectiveness. The extent to which d
71、ecision-making will be centralized or decentralized is crucial to the organization of the mega-project（特大型项目）. Although owners and contractors may have different perceptions on project management for construction, they have a common interest in creating an environment leading to successful projects
72、in which performance quality, completion time and final costs are within prescribed limits and tolerances. 尽管业主和承包商对于建设项目管理有着不同的理解，但他们共同关心营造项目的成功环境，以保证项目的质量、工期和最终成本在预定限度和误差内。2.4 Perceptions of Owners and ContractorsFrom the responses of six contractors, the key factors cited for successful projects
73、are: well defined scope extensive early planning good leadership, management and first line supervision positive client relationship with client involvement proper project team chemistry quick response to changes engineering managers concerned with the total project, not just the engineering element
74、s. Conversely, the key factors cited for unsuccessful projects are: ill-defined scope poor management poor planning breakdown in communication between engineering and construction unrealistic scope, schedules and budgets many changes at various stages of progress lack of good project control The sig
75、nificant findings of the interviews with owners are summarized as follows: All owners have the same perception of their own role, but they differ significantly in assuming that role in practice. The owners also differ dramatically in the amount of early planning and in providing information in bid p
76、ackages. There is a trend toward breaking a project into several smaller projects as the projects become larger and more complex. Most owners recognize the importance of schedule, but they adopt different requirements in controlling the schedule. All agree that people are the key to project success.
77、 Chapter3 The Design and Construction Process3.1 Design and Construction as an Integrated SystemBroadly speaking, design is a process of creating the description of a new facility, usually represented by detailed plans and specifications; construction planning is a process of identifying activities
78、and resources required to make the design a physical reality. 广义而言，设计是一个对新设施进行描述的过程，通常用详细的图纸和设计说明来表示；施工规划是确定将设计变为现实所需工作和资源的过程。Several characteristics are unique to the planning of constructed facilities and should be kept in mind even at the very early stage of the project life cycle. These include
79、the following: Nearly every facility is custom designed and constructed, and often requires a long time to complete. Both the design and construction of a facility must satisfy the conditions peculiar to a specific site. Because each project is site specific, its execution is influenced by natural,
80、social and other locational conditions such as weather, labor supply, local building codes, etc. Since the service life of a facility is long, the anticipation of future requirements is inherently difficult. Because of technological complexity and market demands, changes of design plans during const
81、ruction are not uncommon. In an integrated system, the planning for both design and construction can proceed almost simultaneously, examining various alternatives which are desirable from both viewpoints and thus eliminating（减少） the necessity of extensive revisions（修订） under the guise of value engin
82、eering.从双方的共同需求出发审视不同的方案，而不需要再以价值工程的名义进行任何大的变更。As long as the owner does not assume the responsibility for resolving this risk-reward dilemma（风险-回报难题）, the concept of a truly integrated system for design and construction cannot be realized. 只要业主不愿承担解决这种风险-回报难题的责任，一个完全继承的设计/施工体系是不可能实现的。Shop drawings（
83、施工图） represent the assembly details for erecting a structure which should reflect the intent and rationale of the original structural design. 施工详图显示了结构施工中的安装细节，并应反映河源市结构设计的意图和原理。It is interesting to note that European owners are generally more open to new technologies and to share risks with designe
84、rs and contractors. In particular, they are more willing to accept responsibilities for the unforeseen subsurface conditions in geotechnical（地质） engineering. Consequently, the designers and contractors are also more willing to introduce new techniques in order to reduce the time and cost of construc
85、tion.However, since the responsibility for preparing shop drawings was traditionally assigned to construction contractors, design professionals took the view that the review process was advisory and assumed no responsibility for their accuracy.Traditionally, the owner is not involved in the preparat
86、ion and review of shop drawings, and perhaps is even unaware of any potential problems. In the recommended practice, the owner is required to take responsibility for providing adequate time and funding, including approval of scheduling, in order to allow the design professionals and construction con
87、tractors to perform satisfactorily. Under Italian law, unforeseen subsurface（地下） conditions are the owners responsibility, not the contractors. This is a striking difference from U.S. construction practice where changed conditions clauses and claims and the adequacy of prebid site（标前现场） investigatio
88、ns are points of contention. In effect, the Italian law means that the owner assumes those risks. But under the same law, a contractor may elect to assume the risks in order to lower the bid price and thereby beat the competition. 3.4 Construction PlanningThe development of a construction plan is ve
89、ry much analogous to（与一样） the development of a good facility design. The planner must weigh the costs and reliability of different options while at the same time insuring technical feasibility.Construction planning is more difficult in some ways since the building process is dynamic as the site and
90、the physical facility change over time as construction proceeds. There are some recommendations or issues that can be addressed to describe the characteristics of good plans, but this does not necessarily tell a planner how to discover a good plan. However, as in the design process, strategies of de
91、composition in which planning is divided into subproblems and hierarchical planning in which general activities are repeatably subdivided into more specific tasks can be readily adopted in many cases. From the standpoint of construction contractors or the construction divisions of large firms, the p
92、lanning process for construction projects consists of three stages that take place between the moment in which a planner starts the plan for the construction of a facility to the moment in which the evaluation of the final output of the construction process is finished. The estimate stage involves t
93、he development of a cost and duration（工期） estimate for the construction of a facility as part of the proposal of a contractor to an owner. It is the stage in which assumptions of resource commitment to the necessary activities to build the facility are made by a planner. A careful and thorough analy
94、sis of different conditions imposed by the construction project design and by site characteristics are taken into consideration to determine the best estimate. The success of a contractor depends upon this estimate, not only to obtain a job but also to construct the facility with the highest profit.
95、 The planner has to look for the time-cost combination that will allow the contractor to be successful in his commitment. The result of a high estimate would be to lose the job, and the result of a low estimate could be to win the job, but to lose money in the construction process. In the monitoring
96、 and control stage of the construction process, the construction manager has to keep constant track of both activities durations and ongoing costs. It is misleading to think that if the construction of the facility is on schedule or ahead of schedule, the cost will also be on the estimate or below t
97、he estimate, especially if several changes are made. Constant evaluation is necessary until the construction of the facility is complete. When work is finished in the construction process, and information about it is provided to the planner, the third stage of the planning process can begin. The eva
98、luation stage is the one in which results of the construction process are matched against the estimate. A planner deals with this uncertainty during the estimate stage. Only when the outcome of the construction process is known is he/she able to evaluate the validity of the estimate. It is in this l
99、ast stage of the planning process that he or she determines if the assumptions were correct. If they were not or if new constraints emerge, he/she should introduce corresponding adjustments in future planning. 4. Labor, Material and Equipment Utilization4.1Factors Affecting Job-Site ProductivityJob-
100、site productivity is influenced by many factors which can be characterized either as labor characteristics, project work conditions or as non-productive activities. The labor characteristics include: age and experience of workforce leadership and motivation of workforce（劳动力，工人） The project work cond
101、itions include among other factors: Job size and complexity. Job site accessibility. Labor availability. Equipment utilization. Contractual agreements. Local climate. Local cultural characteristics, particularly in foreign operations. The non-productive activities associated with a project may or ma
102、y not be paid by the owner, but they nevertheless take up potential labor resources which can otherwise be directed to the project. The non-productive activities include among other factors: Indirect labor required to maintain the progress of the project Rework for correcting unsatisfactory work Tem
103、porary work stoppage due to inclement weather or material shortage Time off for union activities Absentee time, including late start and early quits Non-working holidays Strikes Job-site labor productivity can be estimated either for each craft (carpenter, bricklayer, etc.) or each type of construct
104、ion (residential housing, processing plant, etc.) under a specific set of work conditions. A base labor productivity may be defined for a set of work conditions specified by the owner or contractor who wishes to observe and measure the labor performance over a period of time under such conditions. A
105、 labor productivity index may then be defined as the ratio of the job-site labor productivity under a different set of work conditions to the base labor productivity, and is a measure of the relative labor efficiency of a project under this new set of work conditions. The effects of various factors
106、related to work conditions on a new project can be estimated in advance, some more accurately than others. For example, for very large construction projects, the labor productivity index tends to decrease as the project size and/or complexity increase because of logistic problems（后勤问题） and the learn
107、ing that the work force must undergo before adjusting to the new environment. Job-site accessibility often may reduce the labor productivity index if the workers must perform their jobs in round about ways, such as avoiding traffic in repaving the highway surface or maintaining the operation of a pl
108、ant during renovation. Labor availability in the local market is another factor. Shortage of local labor will force the contractor to bring in non-local labor or schedule overtime work or both. In either case, the labor efficiency will be reduced in addition to incurring additional expenses. The deg
109、ree of equipment utilization and mechanization of a construction project clearly will have direct bearing on job-site labor productivity. The non-productive activities associated with a project should also be examined in order to examine the productive labor yield(有效劳动产出), which is defined as the ra
110、tio of direct labor hours（直接工时） devoted to the completion of a project to the potential labor hours. The direct labor hours are estimated on the basis of the best possible conditions at a job site by excluding all factors which may reduce the productive labor yield. For example, in the repaving of h
111、ighway surface, the flagmen（信号旗手） required to divert traffic represent indirect labor which does not contribute to the labor efficiency of the paving crew if the highway is closed to the traffic. 在重铺高速公路路面时，假如高速公路关闭，疏导 交通的信号旗手就是事对铺路小组劳动没有贡献的简介劳动力。Similarly, for large projects in remote areas, indire
112、ct labor may be used to provide housing and infrastructure for the workers hired to supply the direct labor for a project. The labor hours spent on rework to correct unsatisfactory original work represent extra time taken away from potential labor hours. The labor hours related to such activities mu
113、st be deducted from the potential labor hours in order to obtain the actual productive labor yield. 为了计算实际的有效劳动收益，与这些活动有关的工时必须从可能工时中扣除。4.2 Material Procurement and DeliveryThe main sources of information for feedback and control of material procurement are requisitions, bids and quotations, purchase
114、 orders and subcontracts, shipping and receiving documents, and invoices. For projects involving the large scale use of critical resources, the owner may initiate the procurement procedure even before the selection of a constructor in order to avoid shortages and delays. Under ordinary circumstances
115、, the constructor will handle the procurement to shop for materials with the best price/performance characteristics specified by the designer. 在通常情况下，施工方将根据设计者确定的最优价格/性能特征购买材料The materials for delivery to and from a construction site may be broadly classified as : (1) bulk materials（大宗材料）, (2) stand
116、ard off-the-shelf materials（标准现货材料）, and (3) fabricated members or units（预制构件或单元）. The process of delivery, including transportation, field storage and installation will be different for these classes of materials. The equipment needed to handle and haul these classes of materials will also be diffe
117、rent. Bulk materials refer to materials in their natural or semi-processed （半成品）state, such as earthwork to be excavated（土方开挖）, wet concrete mix, etc. which are usually encountered in large quantities in construction. Some bulk materials such as earthwork （土）or gravels（砂） may be measured in bank (so
118、lid in site) volume. Obviously, the quantities of materials for delivery may be substantially different when expressed in different measures of volume, depending on the characteristics of such materials. Standard piping（管道） and valves（阀门） are typical examples of standard off-the-shelf materials whic
119、h are used extensively in the chemical processing industry. Since standard off-the-shelf materials can easily be stockpiled（储存）, the delivery process is relatively simple. Fabricated members such as steel beams（钢梁） and columns（柱子 ）for buildings are pre-processed in a shop to simplify the field erect
120、ion（安装） procedures. Welded（焊接） or bolted（螺栓） connections are attached partially to the members which are cut to precise dimensions for adequate fit. Similarly, steel tanks and pressure vessels are often partly or fully fabricated before shipping to the field. In general, if the work can be done in t
121、he shop where working conditions can better be controlled, it is advisable to do so, provided that the fabricated members or units can be shipped to the construction site in a satisfactory manner at a reasonable cost. As a further step to simplify field assembly, an entire wall panel including plumb
122、ing（管道） and wiring（配线） or even an entire room may be prefabricated and shipped to the site. While the field labor is greatly reduced in such cases, materials for delivery are in fact manufactured products with value added by another type of labor. With modern means of transporting construction mater
123、ials and fabricated units, the percentages of costs on direct labor and materials for a project may change if more prefabricated units are introduced in the construction process. In the construction industry, materials used by a specific craft （工艺）are generally handled by craftsmen（工匠）, not by gener
124、al labor. Thus, electricians handle electrical materials, pipefitters handle pipe materials, etc. This multiple handling diverts scarce skilled craftsmen and contractor supervision into activities which do not directly contribute to construction. Since contractors are not normally in the freight（货运）
125、 business, they do not perform the tasks of freight delivery efficiently. 4.10 Construction EquipmentThe selection of the appropriate type and size of construction equipment often affects the required amount of time and effort and thus the job-site productivity of a project. It is therefore importan
126、t for site managers and construction planners to be familiar with the characteristics of the major types of equipment most commonly used in construction.Excavation and LoadingOne family of construction machines used for excavation is broadly classified as a crane-shovel （起重挖掘机）as indicated by the va
127、riety of machines in Figure 4-3. The crane-shovel consists of three major components: a carrier底盘 or mounting （基础）which provides mobility and stability for the machine. a revolving deck（旋转底盘） or turntable（转盘） which contains the power and control units. a front end attachment（附属） which serves the spe
128、cial functions in an operation. The type of mounting for all machines in Figure 4-3 is referred to as crawler mounting（履带式底盘）, which is particularly suitable for crawling over relatively rugged（崎岖的） surfaces at a job site. Other types of mounting include truck mounting and wheel mounting which provi
129、de greater mobility between job sites, but require better surfaces for their operation. The revolving deck includes a cab（驾驶室） to house the person operating the mounting and/or the revolving deck. The types of front end attachments in Figure 4-3 might include a crane with hook, claim shell（抓铲挖土机）, d
130、ragline（拉铲）, backhoe（反铲）, shovel（正铲） and piledriver（打桩机）.A tractor consists of a crawler mounting and a non-revolving cab. When an earth moving blade（刀片） is attached to the front end of a tractor, the assembly is called a bulldozer（推土机）. When a bucket（铲斗） is attached to its front end, the assembly i
131、s known as a loader or bucket loader. There are different types of loaders designed to handle most efficiently materials of different weights and moisture（湿度） contents.Scrapers（铲运机） are multiple-units of tractor-truck and blade-bucket assemblies with various combinations to facilitate the loading an
132、d hauling of earthwork. Major types of scrapers include single engine two-axle or three axle scrapers, twin-engine all-wheel-drive scrapers, elevating scrapers, and push-pull scrapers. Each type has different characteristics of rolling resistance, maneuverability stability（机动稳定性）, and speed in opera
133、tion.Compaction and Grading（压实与平整场地）（压实与平整场地）The function of compaction equipment is to produce higher density in soil mechanically. The basic forces used in compaction are static weight, kneading（捣）, impact （冲击）and vibration. The degree of compaction that may be achieved depends on the properties o
134、f soil, its moisture content, the thickness of the soil layer for compaction and the method of compaction. The function of grading equipment is to bring the earthwork to the desired shape and elevation. Major types of grading equipment include motor graders（平地机） and grade trimmers. The former is an
135、all-purpose machine for grading and surface finishing, while the latter is used for heavy construction because of its higher operating speed. Drilling and Blasting（钻孔与爆破）（钻孔与爆破）Rock excavation is an audacious（危险的） task requiring special equipment and methods. The degree of difficulty depends on phys
136、ical characteristics of the rock type to be excavated, such as grain size（粒径）, planes of weakness（软弱面）, weathering, brittleness（脆度） and hardness. The task of rock excavation includes loosening, loading, hauling and compacting. The loosening operation is specialized for rock excavation and is perform
137、ed by drilling, blasting or ripping（撕裂）Lifting and ErectingDerricks （起重机）are commonly used to lift equipment of materials in industrial or building construction. A derrick consists of a vertical mast（柱）and an inclined（倾斜的） boom （吊杆）sprouting from the foot of the mast. The mast is held in position by
138、 guys(牵索) or stifflegs connected to a base while a topping lift links the top of the mast and the top of the inclined boom. A hook in the road line hanging from the top of the inclined boom is used to lift loads. Guy derricks may easily be moved from one floor to the next in a building under constru
139、ction while stiffleg derricks（刚性柱起重机） may be mounted on tracks for movement within a work area. 牵索人字起重机可以方便地从正在施工的建筑中一个楼层转移到另一个楼层，而刚性柱起重机可安装在轨道上在作业区内移动。Tower cranes （塔吊）are used to lift loads to great heights and to facilitate the erection of steel building frames. Horizon boom type tower cranes are
140、 most common in highrise building construction. Inclined boom type tower cranes are also used for erecting steel structures. Mixing and Paving（搅拌与铺设）（搅拌与铺设）Basic types of equipment for paving include machines for dispensing concrete and bituminous materials for pavement surfaces. Concrete mixers may
141、 also be used to mix portland cement, sand, gravel and water in batches for other types of construction other than paving. 除了铺路，混凝固搅拌机同样可搅拌波特兰（普通）水泥、砂子、石子和水而用于其他类型的工程。A truck mixer refers to a concrete mixer mounted on a truck which is capable of transporting ready mixed concrete from a central batc
142、h plant to construction sites A paving mixer（铺路机） is a self propelled concrete mixer equipped with a boom and a bucket（斗） to place concrete at any desired point within a roadway.It can be used as a stationary mixer or used to supply slipform pavers that are capable of spreading, consolidating and fi
143、nishing a concrete slab without the use of forms. 它可以作为一个固定的搅拌机，也可以作为滑模铺料机，后者不需要模板就能够进行布料、振捣和抹平混凝土路面。A bituminous（沥青） distributor is a truck-mounted plant for generating liquid bituminous materials and applying them to road surfaces through a spray bar connected to the end of the truck. 专业信函在项目前期、中期
144、和后期，业主、工程师和承包商之间不可避免的要发生一些函件来往，如一些通知、告知书、回复等必须用书面的形势进行。项目履约期间的备忘录、往来信函、签证是重要的证据。务必妥善保存。Commencement of WorksDate:Dear Sirs,In accordance with Clause 8 of the Conditions of Contract and on behalf of the Employer ,we hereby give you notice to commence the Works as soon as is reasonably possible .For t

153、Construction Cost EstimatesThe required levels of accuracy of construction cost estimates vary at different stages of project development, ranging from ball park figures in the early stage to fairly reliable figures for budget control prior to construction. Since design decisions made at the beginni
154、ng stage of a project life cycle are more tentative than those made at a later stage, the cost estimates made at the earlier stage are expected to be less accurate. Generally, the accuracy of a cost estimate will reflect the information available at the time of estimation. Construction cost estimate
155、s may be viewed from different perspectives because of different institutional requirements. In spite of the many types of cost estimates used at different stages of a project, cost estimates can best be classified into three major categories according to their functions. A construction cost estimat
156、e serves one of the three basic functions: design, bid and control. Design Estimates. For the owner or its designated design professionals, the types of cost estimates encountered run parallel with the planning and design as follows: Screening estimates (or order of magnitude estimates) Preliminary
157、estimates (or conceptual estimates) Detailed estimates (or definitive estimates) Engineers estimates based on plans and specifications For each of these different estimates, the amount of design information available typically increases. Bid Estimates. For the contractor, a bid estimate submitted to
158、 the owner either for competitive bidding or negotiation consists of direct construction cost including field supervision, plus a markup to cover general overhead and profits. The direct cost of construction for bid estimates is usually derived from a combination of the following approaches. Subcont
159、ractor quotations Quantity takeoffs Construction procedures. Control Estimates. For monitoring the project during construction, a control estimate is derived from available information to establish: Budget estimate for financing Budgeted cost after contracting but prior to construction Estimated cost to completion during the progress of construction.
