Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

hi lolo,

 

as for as ur Generalities, Engineering & Procurement are concered it looks like ok.

but while applying wbs to your construction phase i think you should follow CSI Codes. which will be show like that :

  • Division 01 — General Requirements
  • Division 02 — Site Construction
  • Division 03 — Concrete
  • Division 04 — Masonry
  • Division 05 — Metals
  • Division 06 — Wood and Plastics
  • Division 07 — Thermal and Moisture Protection
  • Division 08 — Doors and Windows
  • Division 09 — Finishes
  • Division 10 — Specialties
  • Division 11 — Equipment
  • Division 12 — Furnishings
  • Division 13 — Special Construction
  • Division 14 — Conveying Systems
  • Division 15 — Mechanical
  • Division 16 — Electrical

 

I hope after follow these CSI codes it ill be help you in tracking & analyzing progress.

 

regards,,,,,

Check with your cost engineer and find out if there is a WBS for cost control, then match your schedule WBS with the cost WBS (cost accounts) as much as possible. You will be able to have solid KPIs for your project.

The cost engineer should be able to create / add any missing account(s) to match the schedule WBS.

Hi,

I think you have placed the shop drawings at the right place. And that must have elements under it the submission of shop drawings – review / approval shop drawings – submission of material submittals – review / approval as well
