Book Determination of Contract Time for Highway Construction Projects

Download or read book Determination of Contract Time for Highway Construction Projects written by Zohar J. Herbsman and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis will be of interest to highway administrators; design, construction, and specification engineers; project schedulers; and highway construction contractors. The synthesis describes the state of the practice with respect to procedures used throughout the United States and other countries to determine highway construction contract time, with emphasis on new methods in use. Transportation agencies must set reasonable times for completion of construction projects. Factors to be considered in determining contract time include materials, equipment, labor, cost, and constraints such as weather, traffic conditions, utilities location, and user convenience. This report of the Transportation Research Board covers the still pertinent procedures from NCHRP Synthesis 79: Contract Time Determination (e. g., critical path methods, linear scheduling, bar charts) as well as new methods in use (e.g., A + B methods, lane rental, flexible time-to- start). In addition to information on various methods to determine contract time, information on issues related to implementing procedures for contract time determination, from both agency and contractor perspective, is included.

Book Use of Warranties in Road Construction

Download or read book Use of Warranties in Road Construction written by Donn E. Hancher and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 1994 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis on the use of warranties in road construction will be of interest to administrators, engineers, designers, and contractors involved with highway design and construction and the procurement process for these services. Experiences with use of warranties in Europe and the United States are cited and the potential impacts, benefits, and concerns of using warranties in the United States are identified. Actions needed to facilitate the use of warranties for highway projects in the United States are also discussed. The use of warranties in road construction is relatively widespread in the European highway industry compared to practice in the United States, where use has been limited. This report of the Transportation Research Board describes the various methods used in Europe for highway industry warranties and identifies the issues that need to be addressed before construction warranties can be translated to U.S. practice. Recent congressional proposals call for the use of warranties to be allowed on federal-aid highway projects. This has caused varied reactions from the parties involved in the design and construction of highways, resulting in a General Accounting Office study on methods for improving the quality of federal-aid highways, including the use of warranties. Ultimately, the owner will have to decide whether to use warranties in highway construction projects. Some of the potential benefits and concerns of using warranties, plus needed actions for successful implementation are presented in this synthesis, which is considered a snapshot of the issues at the time of publication.
