Impact of prefabrication technology on profitability using Primavera p6

Abstract

The precast Construction system is well-known technology though it was developed many years ago its implementation is slowly catching up with 20% growth year on year. Precast elements are prepared in a controlled environment which results in proper curing and monitored closely resulting in faster construction. This study focuses on the comparison of monolithic technology using aluminium formwork and precast technology. The construction cost estimation of eleven storied building was done by both monolithic construction and precast construction technology. Primavera p6 is used for scheduling and tracking construction activities. The main aim of this study is to identify new technologies in construction and suggest for implementation of technologies for speedy construction and report cost-effectiveness of the systems. The Comparison of cost between both methods is presented here. The time required for the construction of both methods is also presented in this paper.
