Project Aims and Objectives:
To refurbish the existing nursery and build a new extension, in order
to provide a modern and challenging learning environment, required by the
Department for Education and Skills (DfES).
Project Based Building Surveying Services:
1. Pre-construction Phase
• Defined the Clients brief
• Led and managed the project team
• Production of architects drawing from the Construction Issue stage
• Planning and Building Control submissions
• Production of Specifications for all works
• Procurement of Contractors
2. Construction Phase
• Contract Administration
• Chairing Site Meetings
• Weekly structured site monitoring meetings
• Determining site instructions & variations
• Progress claims and financial control (Inc. variations)
• Snagging and granting Practical Completion
3. Post Construction Phase
• Settling the final financial account and ensuring the H&S File was produced.
• Establishing the 12 month defects liability period
Accomplishments:
As the works were undertaken during term time, I put controls in place
which included banning noisy work during teaching time, deliveries were out
of hours, site boundary being regularly checked and closed off, etc.
