Optimisation of Scheduling and Resource Leveling of High Rise Structures by using Primavera

Abstract

Scheduling of a project is a complex process involving inputs from experts from various fields. Resource scheduling, optimization and leveling of resources are the vital ingredients in making a successful project. Utilization of endemically available resources, their effective utilization and structuring has been done in this work using Primavera. The construction industry’s performance depends upon two things scheduling & resource management. Controlling of both of these will affect the total budget of the project. Management of scheduling and resource lies in the hands of organisation only but due to many complexities and vastness in the industry it becomes slightly haphazard and chaotic.

Scheduling and resource management is difficult task due to its inherent complexities of construction projects. The present study deals with the scheduling and resource management of high rise structures. The study was carried out in two phases.

In the first phase scheduling and resource controlling of a residential building are prepared by considering the concrete was casted at site. The required data was collected from the detail drawings and prevailing site conditions of Ramky One North project.
