Problems in building construction include poor planning and design, use of low-quality materials, and shortage of skilled labor. Delays, cost overruns, and structural issues are also common. Environmental factors and non-compliance with regulations can further affect construction quality.
The construction of a building starts with planning and designing, followed by site preparation and laying the foundation. Then the main structure is built, and finishing work like painting and flooring is done. Finally, the building is inspected and handed over.
The four types of construction work are residential, commercial, industrial, and infrastructure construction. Residential includes homes and apartments, commercial includes offices and shops. Industrial covers factories and plants, while infrastructure includes roads, bridges, and utilities.
The construction of a building involves planning and design, site preparation, and foundation work. Next comes structural construction, roofing and walls, and finishing work like painting and flooring. Finally, the building is inspected and handed over.
Preconstruction involves planning, designing, budgeting, and getting approvals before actual construction starts. Procurement is the process of purchasing materials, equipment, and hiring labor needed for the project. Both ensure the construction runs smoothly and on time.
