- Houses 1. Lump sum / Fixed price: One total price for all work. “brick wall”)
- Schools and Offices 2. Cost plus: Client pays for real cost + fee. @Good WBS Elements
- Factories 3. Time and Material: Pay by hour and materials used. *Clear: everyone understands
- Roads, bridges, and big infrastructure 4. Guaranteed Maximum Price: There is a cost limit that *Estimable: we can say how much time and money
cannot be passed. *Manageable: we know who is responsible
3) Life Cycle of a Civil Engineering Project *Measurable: we can check the progress
@A civil engineering project starts with an idea. The idea @Project Delivery Methods *Flexible: we can change if needed
comes from the need to help people and make life better. 1. Design-Bid-Build – Design first, then build. @Is Your WBS Good?
The government wants to build something useful, like 2. Multiple-prime – Many contractors. *Go small: make tasks very clear
roads, buildings, or parks. The project ends when the 3. Design-Build – One team designs and builds. *Check everything: all deadlines and resources
building or structure is ready and used by people. 4. Construction agency – Agency manages work. *Add support work: training, testing, etc.

In this stage: - Project time plan Every project has an end date. You must plan time to
- People share ideas. - End or cancel rules finish on time.
- We check if the idea is possible. - Laws and problem solving @Steps in Time Management
- We do technical and money studies. 1)Make a plan: tools, person, control
- We check if the project is good for the environment and 6.0 Basic Concepts and Processes of Project Integration 2)Define activities: make a WBS

12.Project Risk and Procurement Management
1. Project Risk Management
What is it?​
It means finding and solving problems before they happen
in a project.
Why is it important?​
To keep the project safe and finish it on time.
Main Steps:
Identify – Find possible problems.​
Analyze – Understand how big each problem is.​
Prioritize – Decide which problems are most important.​
Assign – Choose who will work on the problems.​
Monitor – Watch the problems during the project.​
Respond – Take action to fix the problems.​
2. Project Procurement Management​
Getting things (like tools, materials, or services) from other
companies to do the project.
Why is it important?​
Because we need to buy things to build the project.
Main Steps:
Plan – Decide what you need to buy.​
Buy – Find and choose who will sell it to you.
Check – Make sure the things arrive and are correct.​

13.Project Scheduling
What is it?​
Making a plan so each part of the project is done on time
Important Words:
Tasks – Small jobs in the project.​
Deadlines – The time each job must be finished.​
Stakeholders – People who care about the project.​
Bar Chart Method
A simple picture that shows:
What needs to be done​
When it needs to be done​
How long it takes
Critical Path Method
This method helps you:
See which jobs are most important​
Know what happens if a job is late​
Plan better and avoid delays​
Steps:
List all jobs​
Put them in order​
Draw a plan (network)​
Say how long each job takes​
Find the longest path (critical path)​
