| Summary, etc. |
Past research has established the positive contribution ofconstructability improvement to project success in terms oftime, cost and quality, especially for the Design Build (DB) procurement system. However, the literature also suggests that constructability improvement programs face multiple barriers at project and organisation levels, both from the client's and contractor's side. A review ofconstructability literature reveals the lack ofstudies conducted in the Indian context and the present research aims to fill this gap. In this research, an effort has been made to identify and analyse the most prominent barriers to constructability improvement prevalent in the Indian construction industry. In the first part, 46 barriers were identified through a literature review and ranked on the basis ofa survey conducted among the construction contractors. Out of46 barriers, 'lack ofcoordination between the design team and execution team during the design stage' was found to be the most important followed by 'No system for documentation oflessons learned' and 'no access to existing knowledge database'. The study also delved into the reasons for constructability barriers and found that 'poor inter-department communication and coordination' at the contractor's end was responsible for almost 25% of all constructability issues, followed by 'lack ofmanagement support (contractor)', 'lack ofknowledge and skill in project team (contractor)' and 'lack oftechnology and resources (contractor)'. Thus, most ofthe constructability issues could be attributed to the contractor's management, their project personnel and resources. In the second part, a Constructability Review and Improvement (CRI) model is developed which integrates constructability improvement ideas during the design and construction phases ofthe project lifecycle. The model uses the tools and techniques already suggested in the reviewed literature and places emphasis on the deployment ofa 'constructability champion' and a 'constructability review team' as the main drivers ofthe constructability improvement initiatives during the design and construction phases ofa project |
