WORK BREAKDOWN STRUCTURE (cont.) • The scope of work in each work package should be defined to avoid overlaps and omissions between work packages. • Work packages should be defined in terms of design, construction methods, and completion requirements, with associated performance dates DR. Nabil Dmaidi
Scope of Work Packages Each work packages should be: 1. Manageable • Specific authority and responsibility can be assigned. 2. Independent • With minimum interfacing or dependence on other elements. 3. Measurable • In terms of progress. DR. Nabil Dmaidi
The Project Cost System Objectives of Establishing Project Cost System. 1. Keep the construction costs of the project within the established budget 2. Develop labor and equipment productivity information for estimating the cost of future work. DR. Nabil Dmaidi

COST CODES • The most widely used cost codes are • Masterformat, CSI (Construction Specifications Institute) • Uniformat, UCI (Uniform Construction Index). • Masterformat is widely used software companies and government agencies. DR. Nabil Dmaidi
Most contractors match their cost control system to their payroll periods and to their time-monitoring system. DR. Nabil Dmaidi
COST CODES (cont.) • Masterformat • Has 16 divisions • Divisions were developed according to trades • Uniformat • Has 12 divisions • Tends to follow the progress of construction DR. Nabil Dmaidi
