This workshop focuses on practical solutions for today’s construction problems.
Actual case examples are discussed, explaining contract performance, how to resolve construction disputes, prepare for a litigation case, and the bidding process.
The workshop also covers legal issues, from contract formation to the final payment, and is designed to assist construction professionals and their lawyers in day-to-day construction activities.
The emphasis is on using the civil law code as the legal framework of the contract.
This workshop provides the construction professional with a detailed understanding of scheduling project activities, along with identifying the critical activities and critical path.
It also covers resource management, resource levelling and allocation as essential elements in controlling project costs and establishing the resources needed.
In addition, it provides a basis for the many areas of estimating that construction professionals may face. Other methods of cost control, such as value engineering and earned value, will also be discussed.
