Advanced construction technologies
Students (as groups) are required to select three to five advanced construction technologies /
products which they think potentially are applicable to the Case project (the same case as
Assignment 1). This assignment requires students (as groups) to develop a feasibility report on the
application of the selected technologies/products in the case project. The key consideration is
that the selected construction technologies/products should help to increase project productivity
and sustainability during the whole project lifecycle (i.e. design, construction, and operation).
When developing the feasibility study, students should consider:
Legal perspective – What are the legal requirements regarding applying the technologies /
products in the case project?
Financial perspective – What are the costs and benefits of applying the technologies / products
in the case project comparing to conventional practices?
Operational perspective – who will be involved in the application process and what are the
responsibilities and requirements for them?
The Task 1 report should have 1500 words
………………………Answer preview……………………
Advanced construction technology involves modern development in design procedures, material development, quantity surveying, structural analysis and design and also management studies. By using advanced technology in construction one can enhance the quality level, safety, efficiency and sustainability. Quality has to do with durability. Using advanced technology ensures that construction products are durable and met all the needs for which they are made. Safety focuses on ensuring that people working………………………..
