CMDP-3000Construction Planning & Scheduling
This course builds on information presented in previous courses and equips students with the necessary skills to understand the basics in order to plan, schedule and control construction projects. Planning and scheduling are essential activities for timely completion of projects within budget. In this course, students will learn work breakdown structures and sequencing procedures; understand how lean production principles apply to construction; and apply tools for monitoring and controlling schedules during construction. Students will generate and evaluate Gantt charts; critical path networks; resource-loaded schedules; impacts of project changes and progress reports. Both manual and MS Project tools will be used.
