2. THE STUDY OF CONSTRUCTION ORGANIZATIONS
-PREPARATION PHASE-
 Basic information to be collected are the following:
 technical-economic documentation of agreed work
 geographic and topographic conditions,
 meteorological and climatic conditions,
 geological and geotechnical conditions,
 hydrological conditions,
 ability to supply water, energy, etc.
 ability to supply material
 traffic, and conditions for delivery of materials, machinery, etc.
 opportunity for employment of labor force,
 property-legal relations,
 capacity of eventual subcontractors, suppliers, transportation
 companies,
 cost of resources to be used in the region in which to build, etc.

3. TECHNICAL-ECONOMIC DOCUMENTATION OF
AGREED WORK
 Main project of architectural- constructive phase of the
building,
 Priced bill of quantities, cost estimate
 contract for construction,
 General technical and special conditions of the contract,
 the document on Providing financial resources,
 Conceptual project of site organization if there is , etc.
 Without complete documentation it is not possible to
consider all the needs, which inevitably leads to losses.

4. SITE GEOGRAPHY
 The exact geographical location of site,
 The nearest villages, centers of possible supply
(construction materials, handicraft workshops and repair
shops, banks, post offices, the building materials industry,
quarries, gravel pits, desire. stations, ports, airports, pumps
for liquid fuels, etc.)
 Economic description of cities, towns and other centers
that gravitate future construction, as documentation and
background should submit: geographical maps and
distances specified in relation to the site.

5. SITE TOPOGRAPHY
 Configuration of site has a big influence on the organization
of the site, or the disposition of various plants, design and
development of access roads, the internal communication
at the site, the interior horizontal and vertical transport to
the site and the whole works.
 Since the topography of ground depends on what will be
applied to the disposition of the site, which transport
vehicles to use and how much transportation will cost.

6. GEOLOGICAL AND GEOTECHNICAL CONDITIONS
 When performing work on the building below the ground
surface occurs some problems related to groundwater
(groundwater elevation, vibration levels at various time
periods, the strength of underground springs, etc.).
 Geological complex of ground, geomechanical and
geotechnical properties of soil layers on the basis of
appropriate tests, and geological sections, geological map
of the area generally should exist within the architectural-
constructive phase of the project of the building, but
contractor has all these elements to check before building

7. GEOLOGICAL AND GEOTECHNICAL CONDITIONS
 Determining the existence of groundwater, and their regime
is of great importance to the process of organizing works at
zero cycle facilities, as well as for predicting the equipment
and installations for water pumping, fencing construction
pit, concreting under water, etc., which has great
importance for, among other things, calculating and
determining the cost of these works.

8. METEOROLOGICAL AND CLIMATIC CONDITIONS
Climatic conditions at the site are reflected in two ways:
 the creation of special conditions for life and work, or the
hygienic and technical conditions, and the impact on the
organization and the construction technique.
 The human activity, climate has a direct effect especially
when the works are carried out in the open. It has an
impact on the performance of workers and the effect of
work generally. Unfavorable climatic conditions create
special, difficult living and working conditions of workers on
site and reflect on the state of health, and should be
anticipated and calculate all necessary safeguards for the
health and maintaining good working condition of workers.

9. METEOROLOGICAL AND CLIMATIC CONDITIONS
 Climatic conditions are decisive for the annual fund of
working time, it is essential that information about climate
and weather conditions to be collected for a longer period
of observation.
 Such information may be obtained from Hydro-
Meteorological Institute. data on rainfall and its distribution
throughout the year, with rainfall greater than 1 mm and 10
mm, as well as data on relative humidity. on temperature,
average annual, highest and lowest, and the number of
days with temperatures below 0 C or lower than -5 C.
information about the dominant winds, their direction,
intensity and duration. Strong winds can cause major
problems at work and in certain areas and to stop work
completely. Strong winds have an influence on the stability
of the scaffolding, formwork and roof, high pumps, etc.

11. SITE HYDROLOGY
 When it comes to the performance of buildings in the
vicinity of surface water, rivers, lakes, canals, must be
familiar with the water regime because it has a direct
impact on the groundwater regime.
 Based on the collected data should find the optimal
technological solution and make a study of evacuation from
the building of underground water tanks - wide excavation

12. SITE ORGANIZATION – PHASE 1
 In the first phase of works is formed and performed:
 Traffic and site access
 Fence site and input (s)
 Earthworks on the site, digging pits

25. EXTERNAL TRANSPORT
 The rationality of building, directly depends
on the good of the solutions to the
construction site and traffic on the site. It
should be well studied, the question of
suitable external roads and access to the site
to direct the delivery of materials.

26. EXTERNAL TRANSPORT
 The rationality of building, directly depends on the good of
the solutions to the construction site and traffic on the
site. It should be well studied, the question of suitable
external roads and access to the site to direct the delivery
of materials.
 To make calculations of external transport of materials,
equipment, etc. should draw on the map scheme of the
source of materials and equipment to existing roads and
traffic facilities through which supplies will be carried out
site, enter the route, transport distances and create a
specially prescribed distance table, expressed in miles.
 These data on the source of materials and the distance is
important for the transport and purchase service.

31. SITE CENTER
 The term "center of gravity" means the mass
of material to be installed.
 There is a notion of "center of gravity of the
horizontal transport" and the term "center of
gravity of vertical transportation"

32. SITE CENTER

33. INTERNAL TRAFFIC COMMUNICATIONS
 Internal roads and traffic areas can be realized as a
temporary or permanent traffic areas. The realization of
permanent traffic areas within the site is a very rational
approach, and it is possible when the place and route traffic
areas around the planned design for the of the building
matches with the area of traffic routes for the construction
site need to function.
 There are three basic solutions of the route:
1. A bypass circuit with a separate or unique entrance-exit,
the traffic is on one way.
2. Transitory roads - when there are public roads with two
opposite side of the site, two-way traffic. There are two
entrance-exit to the site
3. Blind with bucket - a connection to the main road, two-
way traffic.

34. INTERNAL TRAFFIC COMMIUNICATION

38. INTERNAL TRAFFIC COMMUNICATIONS
 In the building production, works on the site is more or less a problem of
transportation.
 Every unnecessary step, every unnecessary transfer or transportation
costs are extra, so it can get a space by eliminating harmful to significant
savings in time and of work costs.
 Unnecessary transportation to the site comes from the wrong set of
major landfill materials, storage and access to them.
 Easier or harder to perform the necessary transportation of materials
depends on properly selected modes of transport, the transport routes,
and it all comes down to problems of organization of transport to the
site.
 Under the "internal transport site" means any transportation or
transmission of building materials, equipment, etc. from its storage place
to place for installation. This includes the transport of excavated earth
from the excavation of construction sites to landfills.
 Under the "transfer" means the transfer of a human who performs work

39. INTERNAL TRAFFIC COMMUNICATIONS
 internal transport on the site is divided into:
horizontal transport
vertical transport
 The basic principles of solving (site plan of organization) with respect to
the principle of rationalization of traffic would be:
 The principle of gravity and minimum transportation costs of materials
 The principle of removing the spaces and remove harmful in terms of
transport distance and lifting height
 The principle of using the force of gravity and transport movement from
higher to lower points
 The principle of uniformity of production and capacity adjustment to the
chain of machinery and transport equipment, the term "lead machine"

40. SPACE DIMENSIONS
 In practice, for dimensioning are used the following standards:
 Accommodation - from 4.5 to 6 m2/radniku
 Dining Room - 3-4 m2/radniku
 Changing rooms and sanitation facilities - 0.4 -0.5 m2/radniku
 Standards for design offices:
 3.0 to 3.5 m2/osobi
 4.5 to 5.0 m2/osobi – drawers
 5.0 m2/osobi - management staff
