Information transfer and Flow.
TOTAL: 45 PERIODS
OUTCOMES:
Upon completion of the course, the students will be able to
 Formulate construction activities and its duration based on precedence relationships and resource
requirements.
 Prepare the schedule and bar charts based on CPM and PERT techniques.
 Forecast the project budget by adopting accounting and cost control systems.
 Frame the control and safety measures by statistical methods and apply the same in construction.
 Organize and administer the project information in the database.
