Dear All,
I am working on a project in Middle East. It is a 48 storeyed tower. The total duration of the Project is 27 months. The schedule prepared by the Contractor shows the Concrete Works finishing after 20 months. The Client is objecting that seven months after completing concrete works is not sufficient to complete the remaining activities. They are saying that as per Industry Standard the concrete works should not take more than 60% of the total project duration.
I want to know if such standard exists. If not what is the reasonable duration (%age of total duration) to complete conrete works for highrise tower projects.
It will be of great help if anyone can send me summary schedule of tower project (pdf file) showing the project completion 7-8 months after the completion of concrete works.
My email address is zohnad@hotmail.com [1]
Best regards
Nadim
