About Construction Project Management

GoConqr Original

What this unit covers

The unit sits in the Construction Management and Economics strand of Civil engineering and construction. It follows a project from first idea to handover. Many resources are built around the RIBA Plan of Work, which runs from Stage 0 Strategic Definition through to Stage 7 In Use.

Where to start

Begin with the flashcards on the RIBA Plan of Work, then the deck on the stages of construction from inception to completion, which asks you to explain each stage in turn. Next, try the quiz on the RIBA Plan of Work 2013 Unit 5 M1 Preparation. It asks how many stages the plan has and which part relates to sustainability.

  • Preconstruction Activities covers the five main project delivery systems and the architect's duties.
  • Chapter 2: Project Management looks at owners' responsibilities and what project managers do in larger companies.
  • Tendering explains why clients should choose the team best suited to their needs.

Maps, flowcharts and notes

The mind maps cover BIM, Design Management, Delay Analysis Techniques (DATs), Construction Contracts, Soft Landings and Off Site Construction (OSC). Use them to see how topics connect. The BIM map defines the process of generating and managing data about a building during its life cycle. The flowcharts named Tender, Construction and concept give a visual route through the process. The note called Question 9 explains BIM applications and how a company might adopt it.

Using quizzes and maps together

Read a map first, then take a quiz on the same topic. The design team quiz checks who translates ideas into accurate drawings and who the client employs directly. For planning and controls, the Construction Project Controls Final Exam Study quiz and the Project Controls - Exam II quiz give practice. Revisit the map for any answer you missed.

Next step

Choose one stage of the plan, work through its flashcards and quiz, then make a map of your own to fill any gaps.

Frequently asked questions

Which resource should I open first?

Start with the flashcards on the RIBA Plan of Work. They list the stages from Stage 0 Strategic Definition to Stage 7 In Use, which gives you a frame for the rest. Then try the quiz on the RIBA Plan of Work 2013 Unit 5 M1 Preparation to check what stuck.

What do the mind maps cover?

There are over 50 mind maps. They include BIM, Design Management, Delay Analysis Techniques (DATs), Construction Contracts, Soft Landings, Off Site Construction (OSC) and Value Management topics. Others look at collaboration, subcontracting and the supply chain, and closeout reports.

Who are these resources for?

They suit university students and professional candidates studying project stages, contracts, planning and controls. Teachers can also use them as ready-made material for classes. The resources were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr itself.

Are the resources free to use?

Yes. Every resource listed here is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. If you want to save quiz scores or make your own quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes, you can add a free account.

Are there practice quizzes for planning and controls?

Yes. Look for the Project Planning/Scheduling Mid-Term Practice, the Scheduling/Planning Final Exam Practice and the Project Controls - Exam II quizzes. There is also a quiz called Construction Project Controls Final Exam Study. Pair them with the mind map on delay analysis.

What if I cannot find my topic?

Try a nearby resource first, such as the maps on contracts or the flashcards on project administration. If your topic is still missing, you can build your own mind map, flashcards or quiz and keep it for revision.
