Website Upgrade Incoming - we're working on a new look (and speed!) standby while we deliver the project

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 Shiva

Everything depends on your scope of work.

Are you also doing the M&E?

The main interfaces for fit out are:

1. Weathertight.
2. M&E Carcassing - Floors and Ceilings
3. M&E 2nd fix - Floors and Ceilings
4. M&E Commissioning

Common areas and washrooms are a standalone subject and are always a problem - make sure these are planned in detail.

Look out for shared acces routes and trade occupancy at each level.

Rubbish disopsal and hoist time have to be considered.

Other than that it is quite simple.

Best regards

Mike Testro

hi samer,


thanks for ur information. actually, we are the subcontractor for the interior & fitout works in a high rise building (upto level 41). As i am a beginner to this field, I have to prepare the baseline program from the main contractor’s construction program. so, could u pls assist me in-detailed about the sequences, milestone dates, constraints.

and what are the important things to be considered to prepare the baseline program. while updating, what are the points to be followed with main contractor in order to avoid any delays from our side.

thanks... samer..

Dear Shiva,

Tell us a small description about the actual project that you are working on and we will try to assist as much as possible.

I would also recommend that you read the information at the following site. It will benefit you greatly.

With best regards,

Samer

Hi Shiva

All projects are different and you have to work out your own sequences on each new project.

If you can’t build then then you can’t plan it.

Good Luck
