1.2 HISTORY
In the beginning was a man and his vision a colossus throbbing with dynamism and pulsating
with energy. A man born to build. A man whose very presence was a source of inspiration.
Mr. John C. Gammon. The founder of Gammon India Limited. A Civil Engineer who can more
aptly be called 'The Sculptor of Concrete in India'. A man who preached and practiced order
and functional expression in structures - the enduring values that helped build the Gammon
edifice.
From monuments and bridges to reservoirs and jetties, his innovative vision and
engineering skill, his intuitive understanding of the materials and systems of construction
sought and fought answers to some of the most challenging examples in civil engineering
projects.
His abiding faith in people and their abilities inspired them to meet challenge after
challenge.
Mr. Gammon had several firsts to his credit. The RCC pile foundations for the Gateway of
India, the thin shell structures of the Meerut Garages, the colloidal grouting process at
Mundali Weir, the hyperbolic cooling towers at Sabarmati - are but a few of his
outstanding achievements. Bridges like Bonum and Patalganga, built by him have stood
the test of time as monuments to his ingenious skill.
Today, Gammon India Ltd., not only carries his name and vision, but stands out as a
Gateway for technological excellence in civil engineering.
“Excellence built on the foundations of perfection”

1.6 PPP
Presence in Public Private Partnership Projects
The Government is actively pursuing Public Private Partnerships (PPP) to bridge the
infrastructure deficit in the country. Several initiatives have been taken during the last three
years to promote PPP in sectors like ports, highways, power, roads, bridges etc. Having been in
the field of Infrastructure project contracting for a number of years, it was natural that the
Gammon group moved into the business of Infrastructure Projects Development. The resources
constraint with the Government and an immediate need of developing Infrastructure in the
Country were the primary drivers in the Gammon group reaching this logical conclusion.
Gammon Infrastructure Projects Limited, a subsidiary Company of Gammon India Limited, has
been leading the Gammon Group's forays into development of infrastructure projects on Public
Private Partnership (PPP) format. GIPL is among the first companies in India to be modeled as
an infrastructure development company and currently developes roads, bridges, ports and hydro
power and has also identified the following areas for project development and infrastructure
investment: urban infrastructure, airports, special economic zones, water and waste water
management, railways, power transmission lines and agricultural infrastructure. GIPL also offers
services in other areas of project development, such as project advisory services and sector
specific O&M activities.

CHAPTER 3 COOLING TOWER
3.1 INTRODUCTION
Cooling towers are heat removal devices used to transfer process waste heat to the
atmosphere. Cooling towers may either use the evaporation of water to remove process heat
and cool the working fluid to near the wet-bulb air temperature or solely on air to cool the
working fluid to near the dry-bulb air temperature. Common applications include cooling the
circulating water used in oil refineries, chemical plants, power stations and building cooling. The
towers vary in size from small roof-top units to very large hyperboloid structures that can be up
to 200 meters tall and 140 meters in diameter, or rectangular structures that can be over 40
meters tall and 80 meters long. Smaller towers are normally factory-built, while larger ones are
constructed on site.
3.2 TYPES OF COOLING TOWERS:
There are three main types of cooling towers:
1. Natural draft: This utilizes buoyancy via a tall structure. Warm, moist air naturally rises due
to the density difference to the dry, cooler outside air. Warm moist air is less denser than dry
air at the same pressure. This moist air buoyancy produces a current of air through the
tower.
2. Mechanical draft: which uses power driven fan motors to force or draw air through the
tower.
1. Induced draft: A mechanical draft tower with a fan at the discharge which pulls air through
tower. The fan induces hot moist air out the discharge. This produces low entering and high
exiting air velocities, reducing the possibility of recirculation in which discharged air flows
back into the air intake. This fan/fill arrangement is also known as draw-through.
2. Forced draft: A mechanical draft tower with a blower type fan at the intake. The fan forces
air into the tower, creating high entering and low exiting air velocities. The low exiting velocity
is much more susceptible to recirculation. With the fan on the air intake, the fan is more
susceptible to complications due to freezing conditions.
GIL, NDCT & Chimney Package for S.S.T.P.P, Khandwa, M.P Summer Internship Report-2010.
Nicmar Hyderabad. Page 21
Another disadvantage is that a forced draft design typically requires more motor horsepower
than an equivalent induced draft design. The forced draft benefit is its ability to work with high
static pressure. They can be installed in more confined spaces and even in some indoor
situations. This fan/fill geometry is also known as blow-through.
3. Fan assisted natural draft. A hybrid type that appears like a natural draft though airflow is
assisted by a fan.

3.4 CATEGORIZATION BY AIR-TO-WATER FLOW
Cross flow: Cross flow is a design in which the air flow is directed perpendicular to the water
flow. Air flow enters one or more vertical faces of the cooling tower to meet the fill material.
Water flows (perpendicular to the air) through the fill by gravity. The air continues through the fill
and thus past the water flow into an open plenum area. A distribution or hot water basin
consisting of a deep pan with holes or nozzles in the bottom is utilized in a cross flow tower.
Gravity distributes the water through the nozzles uniformly across the fill material.
Counter flow: In a counter flow design the air flow is directly opposite to the water flow. Air
flow first enters an open area beneath the fill media and is then drawn up vertically. The water is
sprayed through pressurized nozzles and flows downward through the fill, opposite to the air
flow.
Common to both designs:
The interaction of the air and water flow allows a partial equalization and evaporation of
water.
The air, now saturated with water vapor, is discharged from the cooling tower.
A collection or cold water basin is used to contain the water after its interaction with the air
flow.
Both cross flow and counter flow designs can be used in natural draft and mechanical draft
cooling towers.

3.5 OPERATION PRINCIPLE OF NDCT
The cooling tower operation is based on evaporative condensation and exchange of sensible
heat. Cooling effect is accomplished by transferring apportion of liquid into vapor state there by
releasing latent heat of vaporization.
Hot water is pumped to a certain height and then distributed through piping system and
discharged through nozzles to splash over a system called filling (or) stacking. The water
splashes, drips and flows downwards through the filling.
The ascending air which enters to tower through the open space between the supporting
columns rises through the open space between the supporting columns rises through the
droplets of hot water through evaporation and consequently cools the water through evaporation
and convection. The cooled water collected in a pond and re circulated by adding loss of water.
3.5.1 COMMONLY USED TERMS
Drift - Water droplets that are carried out of the cooling tower with the exhaust air. Drift
droplets have the same concentration of impurities as the water entering the tower.
Blow-out - Water droplets blown out of the cooling tower by wind, generally at the air
inlet openings. Water may also be lost, in the absence of wind, through splashing or
misting
Plume - The stream of saturated exhaust air leaving the cooling tower. The plume is
visible when water vapor it contains condenses in contact with cooler ambient air.
Blow-down - The portion of the circulating water flow that is removed in order to maintain
the amount of dissolved solids and other impurities at an acceptable level.
GIL, NDCT & Chimney Package for S.S.T.P.P, Khandwa, M.P Summer Internship Report-2010.
Nicmar Hyderabad. Page 26
Leaching - The loss of wood preservative chemicals by the washing action of the water
flowing through a wood structure cooling tower.
Noise - Sound energy emitted by a cooling tower and heard at a given distance and
direction. The sound is generated by the impact of falling water, by the movement of air
by fans, the fan blades moving in the structure, and the motors, gearboxes or drive belts.
Approach - The approach is the difference in temperature between the cooled-water
temperature and the entering-air wet bulb temperature.
Range - The range is the temperature difference between the water inlet and water exit.
Fill - Inside the tower, fills are added to increase contact surface as well as contact time
between air and water. Thus they provide better heat transfer. The efficiency of the tower
also depends on them. There are two types of fills that may be used:
Film type fill (causes water to spread into a thin film)
Splash type fill (breaks up water and interrupts its vertical progress)

4.1 INDTRODUCTION
A chimney is a structure for venting hot flue gases or smoke from a boiler, stove, furnace or
fireplace to the outside atmosphere. Chimneys are typically vertical, or as near as possible to
vertical, to ensure that the gases flow smoothly, drawing air into the combustion in what is
known as the stack, or chimney, effect. The space inside a chimney is called a flue. Chimneys
may be found in buildings, steam locomotives and ships. In the US, the term smokestack
(colloquially, stack) is also used when referring to locomotive chimneys. The term funnel is
generally used for ships' chimneys and sometimes to refer to locomotive chimneys. Chimneys
are tall to increase their draw of air for combustion and to disperse pollutants in the flue gases
over a greater area so as to reduce the pollutant concentrations in compliance with regulatory or
other limits.

4.3.4 SLIPFORM FABRICATION & ERECTION
4.3.4.1 INTRODUCTION
Slip form is a method of construction that requires custom built set forms for each project. Unlike
jumpforming, slip forming usually proceeds 24 hours per day during the pouring stage of the
project. Large diameter silos RCC chimney, square or irregular configuration or clusters of two
or more silos are usually slip form silos.
In this method, a complete and unique form system is fabricated and built on site. The inside
and outside wall forms are constructed of EN 8 MS plates shutter. These forms are held
together and supported by a system of yokes and by the slipform deck. The deck is constructed
of structural steel members, which are covered with wooden planks to provide an area to work
off .Normally, the structural steel members consist of the roof support beams for the actual
structure .Once the slip form is complete, these members are attached to or supported by the
wall. They are left in place to support the roof.
This whole system of deck and wall forms is raised, or slipped as one integral unit by a series of
either hydraulic jack. Each jack is centered between the wall forms and climbs on a steel jack
rod that is left in place in the concrete wall. The jacks are attached to the yokes to tie the whole
system together.
The entire slip forming operation is usually continuous from start to finish .The rate of slip will be
dependent on several factors, including wall thickness ,complexity of structure ,weather ,quantity
of embeds, and block outs to be placed in the walls. Most slips will average between 10” & 15”
per hour. The initial “set time” for the concrete being poured in the walls, which reinforces the
jack rods that support the structure, is another critical factor.
After slip is completed, or “topped –out”, the form system is still supported by the jacks and jack
rods. The finished wall is then given a day or two to gain sufficient strength .When ready, the
deck structural support system is attached to the walls to support the roof to be constructed
later, and the forms, yokes, jacks, etc are removed. The balance of the work to be performed on
the project can then proceed under normal construction methods and practices.

4.3.6 FLUE CAN FABRICATION
4.3.6.1 Method of Fabrication
First of all raw structural steel received from APML will be stacked on a wooden battens in
a proper manner.
Then the plates will be straightened so that before bending they should be in a proper
shape.
Then the plates will be cut for the proper dimension as mentioned in the drawings
Using the pug cutters, plates will be cut horizontally and vertically as per the angle
mentioned in the drawing.
Then the plates will be bend half round with the help of plate bending machine.
Then the two halves will be welded together keeping a gap of 2mm.
Weld size will be 6mm butt weld as mentioned in the drawing.
The end of butt joints shall be welded so as to provide full throat thickness. This may be
done by the use of extension pieces, cross-runs.
Firstly the root run will be applied using filler material of ER-70-S-6 and after that back
gauging will be carried out from inner surface.
After back gauging Liquid Penetrant Inspection will be carried out and if any flaws appears
will be rectified as per standard welding practice.
Once the Liquid Penetrant Test is carried out and the gaps are located final filling run will
be applied.
After each run of weld, slag will be removed (Deslagging).
Both cans will be mounted on rotator and cans will be welded automatically from the top.
Again the above procedure should be repeated for the third can.
Then the 75x75x8 angle top one having 120 holes of 22mmǾ and bottom having 18mmǾ
shall be welded respectively and one angle of 75x75x8 shall be bend and welded to the

6.3 SITE MOBILISATION
A very important component of site management is the organization.
Depending upon the size and nature of the project, the organization would coordinate and
carry out activities as determined.
The success of a project very largely depends upon the commitment,involvement,attitude
and understanding amongst the project team.
A very close coordination needs to be maintained by the project manager with client/
owner, consultant, vendor/supplier, sub-contractor and local authorities.
In view of uncertainties, the project manger & his team must rise to the occasion and
innovate ways & means to come out of the crisis or a difficult situation as & when it
develops.
6.3.1 SITE MOBILIZATION INVOLVES THE FOLLOWING
1. Enabling works:
• Under works of this category, structures which would facilitate undertaking the actual
project work are included in the master control network & planning. In a large project
running into cores, enabling works itself will form a mini-project. Enabling works will
include:
(a) Fencing/boundary wall around the project, fixing security check post and gates.
(b) Camp for engineers, supervisors & workmen
(c) Store for materials
(d) Construction plant & equipment:
(1) Static plant such as concrete batching plant, pre-cast concrete element plant, hot mix
plant etc.
(2) Mobile plant such as dumper, bulldozers, transit mixer, concrete, compressor, trucks,
bitumen sprayer, road roller etc.
2) Workshop:
• For maintenance of plant and equipment(static & mobile), it is necessary to have a
workshop which will undertake maintenance, repair, overhauling and major replacement of
equipment.
• The workshop should have a small machine shop attached with lathes, drilling
machines,welding,sheet metal work and also battery charger, tyre repair etc.
3) Quality control laboratory:
• For testing of material and building component, it is essential to set up a quality control
laboratory at site.
• This laboratory should test materials such as cement, sand,aggregate,bricks,concrete etc.
• If any item needs to be tested for which facilities are not available at site, then such
samples are sent to reputed laboratories/research institutions for testing.
4)Stores and stacking yards:
• In the project site, open storage is necessary for maintaining the material in good condition.
• Cement is usually supplied in bags which are stored at site in covered shed.
GIL, NDCT & Chimney Package for S.S.T.P.P, Khandwa, M.P Summer Internship Report-2010.
Nicmar Hyderabad. Page 119
• If more than 10 bags are stacked, then the lower bags tend to set, making cement non-
usable.
5) Services:
• The site camp is to be provided with services like electric supply, sewage disposal,
communication, power, telephone ,&water supply
• In order to carry out the enabling work which is required at the very initial stage of the project, a
team is sent in advance to the site for building up all temporary structures, services required for
enabling works.
• On the other hand, if a project team that has been assigned with the main work is to first build up
enabling works, a lot of time is lost in the project.
In some international projects and some major projects within the country, structures are being
adopted for the site camp which is of portable nature.
6.3.2 GOOD SITE MANAGEMENT TECHNIQUES
1) Well laid out site:
• A tidy and workmanlike site is important because it helps the contractor to operate more
efficiently and saves wasted time & resources. Secondly, it shows the client that the
contractor takes pride in his work.
2) Site office for supervisor:
• The site supervisor should be provided with an office where he can keep the drawings,
documents, update the bar chart programme and prepare labour, plant and material
returns as required by head office.
• When the project manager or any authorised person as contractor visits the site, he should
make sure that upto date drawings, client‟s instructions and other information is available
3) Training foreman:
• The foreman is in the frontline of management and he will always perform better if he is
made to understand that he is a member of team rather than an as a person to take orders.
• It is worthwhile taking a little time to explain the reasons for requiring them to keep the site
office tidy and submit time sheets regularly rather than simply saying “it has to be got
done”.
4) Reducing waiting time:
• Waiting time is far too common occurrence on many sites e.g. operators wait to be told as
to what to do next, lorry drivers wait while the foreman goes off to the supplier for an
urgent item and the concreting gang has to stop until the fitter comes out to repair the
mixer. „Waiting time‟ is a polite way of describing wasted time and wasted time means
wasted money. This can be eliminated provided a site management plan is prepared in
advance.
5) Reducing movements:
• Half of the man hours that is expended on a construction site are concerned with the
movement and handling of materials. Much of this time could be saved, leading to greater
productivity and lower costs, if the site layout has been planned from the start of job to
minimize unnecessary movements.
GIL, NDCT & Chimney Package for S.S.T.P.P, Khandwa, M.P Summer Internship Report-2010.
Nicmar Hyderabad. Page 120
6.4 SITE MANAGER (EXECUTION)
• The first step in opening a site is to post a person to be the site in charge.
• Running a site is a full time job and this job must be given to person who is qualified and
has got experience of work at sites.
• He/she should be a competent person with definite direction and strong inspiration, a
natural leader with pleasing personality for leading a team of men successfully.
The following things are expected of a site manager:
1. KNOW THE CONTRACT:: He should thoroughly read the contract and should be knowing
the contractual obligations and specifications so that the quality of performance is improved.
2. STUDY THE PLANS:
He /she is expected to have the plan before him and ensure that the key men of the site
team look at the plans as often as possible.
When the target dates of approaching events & milestones stares, it will accelerate the
speed of the whole team.
3. READ THE ERECTION MANUAL
The erection manual must be read so that whatever is not clear should be discussed
and clarification should be sought in advance.
In this process, the manager must ensure that his team members become competent
enough to attend to the erection job so that he can concentrate on other activities at
the site
4. MOBILISATION OF RESOURCES:
Apart from the items mentioned in the mobilisation checklist given by the planning
manager, there are requirements of various registrations under relevant law for starting
a new establishment employing people.
Resource mobilisation shall be done as per the plan of head office in line with the work
schedule, keeping the time, quality and economy in mind. If something planned by head
office is unnecessary @ site, it is not necessary to do that. But, if something more is to
be done, permission is necessary for budget allocation.
5. DIVIDE THE SITE INTO MANAGEABLE SECTIONS:
If the site is unwieldy, divide it logically into units/sections/divisions and put an
engineer/foreman in charge of each. Allocate the resources according to the needs. In
allocation of resources, diversion should be made possible by ensuring least wastage &
idleness.
GIL, NDCT & Chimney Package for S.S.T.P.P, Khandwa, M.P Summer Internship Report-2010.
Nicmar Hyderabad. Page 121
6. TRAIN AND DELEGATE RESPONSIBILITIES:
The manager must train the supervisors to do the work well, guide them in every step until
they become competent enough to take correct decisions at their level independently, and
motivate them by delegating more responsibility in recognition of their competence in their
assignments. All key men @ site must be trained to know the scope, capacity, their use,
maneuverability and use of machines that are used in site. The manager must delegate part
of his authority to subordinates so that they can exercise control over the resources to the
extent necessary for carrying out their responsibilities efficiently.
7. SITE BUDGET:
The head office consolidated budgets of various items of inputs and outputs for the whole
site. It is necessary to break them section wise and delegate responsibility to section heads
so that they learn to work independently & produce results. Measure & compare the
performance every week.
8. REMOVE CONSTRAINTS:
As a site manager, he /she should ensure that constraints are foreseen by way of advance
planning of drawings, foundations, clearances, material indents,
Working fronts, erection schemes etc so that they are removed in time. All constraints will
cause delay and delay will cause financial loss to the organization. In construction work,
“time lost is money lost” and hence the site manager is always under emergency.
Narrating excuses will not help and what stands at the end of the month is figures of
achievements. He should be a “creator” and should not wait for things to happen by
themselves without human effort.
9. CLOSELY MONITOR ACTIVITIES:
The site manager‟s task doesn‟t end by making resource allocation and holding of
meetings. Instead of team leaders coming to manager for guidance,
The manager should go to them for monitoring the performance, and where ever
necessary, should guide them before any damage is done.
No construction manager worth his name should say “Progress is poor because of failure
of an engineer in charge of some activity”. As the boss of site, the manager should know
the daily progress in every area of work, measure it and compare it with the planned
programme and take effective steps for the same.
10. MANAGE TIME
At the construction site, there is always pressure of work and lack of time. The manager
should learn the art of time management in a better way.
GIL, NDCT & Chimney Package for S.S.T.P.P, Khandwa, M.P Summer Internship Report-2010.

CHAPTER 7. PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Project Definition and Scope
What is a Project?
“A project is a one-shot, time-limited, goal-directed, major undertaking, requiring the
Commitment of varied skills and resources”.
A project is a temporary endeavor undertaken to create a unique product or service. A project is
temporary in that there is a defined start (the decision to proceed) and a defined end (the
achievement of the goals and objectives). Ongoing business or maintenance operations are not
projects. Energy conservation projects and process improvement efforts that result in better
business processes or more efficient operations can be defined as projects. Projects usually
include constraints and risks regarding cost, schedule or performance outcome.
Project management is concerned with the overall planning and co-ordination of a project
from conception to completion aimed at meeting the stated requirements and ensuring
completion on time, within cost and to required quality standards.
Project management is normally reserved for focused, non-repetitive, time-limited activities
with some degree of risk and that are beyond the usual scope of operational activities for which
the organization is responsible.
7.1 IMPORTANCE OF PLANNING
1) project plan clearly defines project scope of work
2) It breaks down project objectives into clear ,identifiable,quantifible,attainable,and
verifiable goals which are assigned to individual &responsibility centers for
accomplishment
3) Project plan aids the management in performing its functions effectively & efficiently.
4) Project plan forms the basis of project operations &directions &shows how the project is
to be run.
5) Project plan identifies critical activities, thus enabling the managing of project by
exceptions.
GIL, NDCT & Chimney Package for S.S.T.P.P, Khandwa, M.P Summer Internship Report-2010.
Nicmar Hyderabad. Page 123
6) Project plan provides the basis for coordinating the efforts of clients, consultants,
architects, designers, specialists, suppliers,contractors and the quantity surveyors
&project staff.
7) Project plan provides the yard stick for measuring progress and evaluating resources
performance.
7.2 Planning includes
1. Time planning
2. Resource planning
3. Planning control system
7.2 .1.Time planning
1.Project work breakdown
2.Drawing project networks

7.3 Steps in Project Management
The various steps in a project management are:
Project Definition and Scope
1. Technical Design
2. Financing
3. Contracting
4. Implementation
5. Performance Monitoring
7.3.1. Technical Design
For a project to be taken up for investment, its proponent must present a sound technical
Feasibility study that identifies the following components:
The proposed new technologies, process modifications, equipment replacements and
other measures included in the project.
Product/technology/material supply chain (e.g., locally available, imported, reliability of
supply)
Commercial viability of the complete package of measures (internal rate of return, net
present value, cash flow, average payback).
Any special technical complexities (installation, maintenance, repair), associated skills
required.
Preliminary designs, including schematics, for all major equipment needed, along with
design requirements, manufacturer‟s name and contact details, and capital cost estimate.
Organizational and management plan for implementation, including timetable, personnel
requirements, staff training, project engineering, and other logistical issues.
7.3.2 Financing
When considering a new project, it should be remembered that other departments in the
organization would be competing for capital for their projects. However, it is also important to
realize that energy efficiency is a major consideration in all types of projects, whether they are:
Projects designed to improve energy efficiency
Projects where energy efficiency is not the main objective, but still plays a vital role.
The funding for project is often outside the control of the project manager. However, it is
important that you understand the principles behind the provision of scarce funds.
GIL, NDCT & Chimney Package for S.S.T.P.P, Khandwa, M.P Summer Internship Report-2010.
Nicmar Hyderabad. Page 125
Project funds can be obtained from either internal or external sources.
Internal sources include:
Direct cash provision from company reserves
From revenue budget (if payback is less than one year)
New share capital
Funding can become an issue when energy efficiency projects have previously been given a
Lower priority than other projects. It is worth remembering that while the prioritization of
Projects may not be under our control, the quality of the project submission is.
External sources of funds include:
Bank loans
Leasing arrangement
Payment by savings i.e. A deal arranged with equipment supplier
Energy services contract
Private finance initiative
The availability of external funds depends on the nature of your organization. The finance
charges on the money you borrow will have a bearing on the validity of your project.
Before applying for money, discuss all the options for funding the project with your finance
managers.
It is reiterated that energy savings often add substantially to the viability of other non-energy
projects.
7.3.3 Contracting
Since a substantial portion of a project is typically executed through contracts, the proper
Management of contracts is critical to the successful implementation of the project. In this
context, the following should be done.
The competence and capability of all the contractors must be ensured. One weak link can
affect the timely performance of the contract.
Proper discipline must be enforced among contractors and suppliers by insisting that
they should develop realistic and detailed resource and time plans that are matching
with the project plan.
Penalties may be imposed for failure to meet contractual obligations. Likewise,
incentives may be offered for good performance.
Help should be extended to contractors and suppliers when they have genuine
Problems.
Project authorities must retain independence to off-load contracts (partially or wholly)
to other parties where delays are anticipated.
GIL, NDCT & Chimney Package for S.S.T.P.P, Khandwa, M.P Summer Internship Report-2010.
Nicmar Hyderabad. Page 126
If the project is to implemented by an outside contractor, several types of contract may be
used to undertake the installation and commissioning:
Traditional Contract: All project specifications are provided to a contractor who
Purchases and installs equipment at cost plus a mark-up or fixed price.
Extended Technical Guarantee/Service: The contractor offers extended guarantees on
the performance of selected equipment and / or service/maintenance agreements.
Extended Financing Terms: The contractor provides the option of an extended lease
or other financing vehicle in which the payment schedule can be based on the
expected savings.
Guaranteed Saving Performance Contract: All or part of savings is guaranteed by
the contractor, and all or part of the costs of equipment and/or services is paid down
out of savings as they are achieved.
Shared Savings Performance Contract: The contractor provides the financing and
is paid an agreed fraction of actual savings as they are achieved. This payment is used
to pay down the debt costs of equipment and/or services.
7.3.4 Implementation
The main problems faced by project manager during implementation are poor monitoring of
progress, not handling risks and poor cost management.
a) Poor monitoring of progress: Project managers sometimes tend to spend most of their
time in planning activity and surprisingly very less time in following up whether the
implementation is following the plan. A proactive report generated by project planner
software can really help the project manager to know whether the tasks are progressing as
per the plan.
b) Not handling risks: Risks have an uncanny habit of appearing at the least expected time. In
spite of the best efforts of a project manager they are bound to happen. Risks need immediate
and focused attention. Delay in dealing with risks cause the problem to
aggravate and has negative consequences for the project.
c) Poor cost management: A project manager's success is measured by the amount of cost
optimization done for a project. Managers frequently do all the cost optimization during the
planning stages but fail to follow through during the rest of the stages of the project. The cost
graphs in the Project planner software can help a manager to get a update on project cost
overflow. The cost variance (The difference between approved cost and the projected cost
should be always in the minds of the project managers).
GIL, NDCT & Chimney Package for S.S.T.P.P, Khandwa, M.P Summer Internship Report-2010.
Nicmar Hyderabad. Page 127
7.3.5 Performance Monitoring
Once the project is completed, performance review should be done periodically to compare
actual performance with projected performance. Feedback on project is useful in several
ways:
a) It helps us to know how realistic were the assumptions underlying the project
b) It provides a documented log of experience that is highly valuable in decision making in
future projects
c) It suggests corrective action to be taken in the light of actual performance
d) It helps in uncovering judgmental biases
e) It includes a desired caution among project sponsors.
Performance Indicators (PIs) are an effective way of communicating a project‟s benefits,
usually as part of a performance measuring and reporting process. Performance Indicators are
available for a wide range of industries and allow a measure of energy performance to be
assigned to a process against which others can be judged.
Depending on the nature of the project, savings are determined using engineering
calculations, or through metering and monitoring, utility meter billing analysis, or computer
simulations.
7.4 Four Basic Elements of Project Management
A successful Project Manager must simultaneously manage the four basic elements of a
project: resources, time, cost, and scope. Each element must be managed effectively. All these
elements are interrelated and must be managed together if the project, and the project
manager, is to be a success.
7.4.1. Managing Resources
A successful Project Manager must effectively manage the resources assigned to the project.
This includes the labor hours of the project team. It also includes managing labor subcontracts
and vendors. Managing the people resources means having the right people, with the right skills
and the proper tools, in the right quantity at the right time.
However, managing project resources frequently involves more than people management.
The project manager must also manage the equipment (cranes, trucks and other heavy
equipment) used for the project and the material (pipe, insulation, computers, manuals)
assigned to the project.
GIL, NDCT & Chimney Package for S.S.T.P.P, Khandwa, M.P Summer Internship Report-2010.
Nicmar Hyderabad. Page 128
7.4.2. Managing Time and Schedule
Time management is a critical skill for any successful project manager. The most common
cause of bloated project budgets is lack of schedule management. Fortunately there is a lot of
software on the market today to help you manage your project schedule or timeline.
Any project can be broken down into a number of tasks that have to be performed. To prepare
the project schedule, the project manager has to figure out what the tasks are, how long they
will take, what resources they require, and in what order they should be done.
7.4.3. Managing Costs
Often a Project Manager is evaluated on his or her ability to complete a project within budget.
The costs include estimated cost, actual cost and variability. Contingency cost takes into
account influence of weather, suppliers and design allowances.
7.4.4. How the 80/20 Rule can help a project manager?
The 80/20 Rule means that in anything a few (20 percent) are vital and many (80 percent) are
trivial. Successful Project Managers know that 20 percent of the work (the first 10 percent and
the last 10 percent) consumes 80 percent of your time and resources.
7.5 Project Management Life Cycle
The process flow of Project management processes is shown in Figure 7.1. The various
elements of project management life cycle are
1) Need identification
2) Initiation
3) Planning
4) Executing
5) Controlling
6) Closing out
GIL, NDCT & Chimney Package for S.S.T.P.P, Khandwa, M.P Summer Internship Report-2010.
Nicmar Hyderabad. Page 129
7.5.1 Need Identification
The first step in the project development cycle is to identify components of the project. Projects
may be identified both internally and externally: Internal identification takes place when the
energy manager identifies a package of energy saving opportunities during the day-to-day
energy management activities, or from facility audits. External identification of energy savings
can occur through systematic energy audits undertaken by a reputable energy auditor or energy
service company. In screening projects, the following criteria should be used to rank-order
project opportunities.
Cost-effectiveness of energy savings of complete package of measures (Internal rate of
return, net present value, cash flow, average payback) Sustainability of the savings over the life
of the equipment. Ease of quantifying, monitoring, and verifying electricity and fuel savings.
Availability of technology, and ease of adaptability of the technology to Indian
conditions. Other environmental and social cost benefits (such as reduction in local pollutants,
7.5.2 Initiation
Initiating is the basic processes that should be performed to get the project started. This starting
point is critical because those who will deliver the project, those who will use the project, and
those who will have a stake in the project need to reach an agreement on its initiation. Involving
all stakeholders in the project phases generally improves the probability of satisfying customer
requirements by shared ownership of the project by the stakeholders. The success of the
project team depends upon starting with complete and accurate information, management
support, and the authorization necessary to manage the project.
7.5.3 Planning
The planning phase is considered the most important phase in project management. Project
planning defines project activities that will be performed; the products that will be produced, and
describes how these activities will be accomplished and managed. Project planning defines
each major task, estimates the time, resources and cost required, and provides a framework for
management review and control. Planning involves identifying and documenting scope, tasks,
schedules, cost, risk, quality, and staffing needs.
GIL, NDCT & Chimney Package for S.S.T.P.P, Khandwa, M.P Summer Internship Report-2010.
Nicmar Hyderabad. Page 130
The result of the project planning, the project plan, will be an approved, comprehensive
document that allows a project team to begin and complete the work necessary to achieve the
project goals and objectives. The project plan will address how the project team will manage the
project elements. It will provide a high level of confidence in the organization‟s ability to meet the
scope, timing, cost, and quality requirements by addressing all aspects of the project.
7.5.4 Executing
Once a project moves into the execution phase, the project team and all necessary resources to
carry out the project should be in place and ready to perform project activities. The project plan
is completed and base lined by this time as well. The project team and the project manager‟s
focus now shifts from planning the project efforts to participating, observing, and analyzing the
work being done.
The execution phase is when the work activities of the project plan are executed, resulting in the
completion of the project deliverables and achievement of the project objective(s). This phase
brings together all of the project management disciplines, resulting in a product or service that
will meet the project deliverable requirements and the customers need. During this phase,
elements completed in the planning phase are implemented, time is expended, and money is
spent. In short, it means coordinating and managing the project resources while executing the
project plan, performing the planned project activities, and ensuring they are completed
efficiently.
7.5.5 Controlling
Project Control function that involves comparing actual performance with planned performance
and taking corrective action to get the desired outcome when there are significant differences.
By monitoring and measuring progress regularly, identifying variances from plan, and taking
corrective action if required, project control ensures that project objectives are met.
7.5.6 Closing out
Project closeout is performed after all defined project objectives have been met and the
customer has formally accepted the project‟s deliverables and end product or, in some
instances, when a project has been cancelled or terminated early. Although, project closeout is a
routine process, it is an important one. By properly completing the project closeout,
organizations can benefit from lessons learned and information compiled. The project closeout
phase is comprised of contract closeout and administrative closure.

CHAPTER 10. ACCOUNTING
Accounting systems form an integral part of any successful business. Proper
accounting not only helps the organization know its monitory worth, but also works as
leverage to climb the ladders of growth. A construction company is like any other company
and has many responsibilities towards their employees, customers, vendors, investors and
government. They are bound to answer questions or queries that are raised time to time.
Unless, they maintain a sound accounting procedure and proper reporting systems they
cannot fulfill these requirements.
The construction industry has some specific accounting requirements. Apart from
routine receivable and payable accounts, they need systems for project estimating, job
costing, overhead expenses, project schedules and contracts, project billing, vendor
tracking and invoicing, customer management, etc. A typical construction accounting
system includes accounts payable, job cost management, accounts receivable, payroll,
detailed job budgets, time and material billing, general ledger, AIA billing, subcontract
status, custom job reports, certified payroll, over and under billings, purchase orders, union
reports, inventory, equipment tracking, work in progress, etc.
In this computer age, there are many software packages available. Software
specifically developed for the construction industry incorporates their specific requirements
and are user-friendly and can be operated by the personnel with little computer knowledge.
Apart from fulfilling statutory requirements such as balance sheets, profit and loss accounts
for company and outside agencies like sales tax and customs departments, these packages
generate innumerable reports which would be very helpful in company's decision making
process.
Most of this accounting software covers four major areas of construction industries.
Accounting module covers, E.R.P, Tally , A/P, A/R, check writing, financial reports,
inventory, job costs, payroll, project billing, cost estimating module covers assemblies, as
well as unit costs, project management module includes change orders, contract writing,
material takeoffs, punch lists, schedules. Business management module deals with
appointments, customer relations, leads, property management, sales, etc.

Nicmar Hyderabad. Page 139
11.5 PURPOSE OF MATERIAL MANAGEMENT
• To gain economy in purchasing
• To satisfy the demand during period of replenishment
• To carry reserve stock to avoid stock out
• To stabilize fluctuations in consumption
• To provide reasonable level of client services
11.6 CLASSIFICATION OF MATERIALS
11.6.1 Why should we classify materials?
We deal with hundreds of different types of inventory items. With so many items,
complexity of managing the process increases.
To manage these inventories effectively grouping is essential.
Grouping together of materials of technical affinity is known as classification.
11.6.2 Classification can be based on various attributes:
By size
By names
By values
By end use
By product category
11.6.3 ABC Analysis
Is a basic analytical management tool
It enables management to place efforts where the results will be greatest.
This technique is popularly known as Always Better Control.
This technique tries to analyze the distribution of any characteristic by money value of
importance in order to determine its priority.
11.6.4 Principles of ABC analysis:
1. The analysis does not depend upon the unit cost of the items but only on its annual
consumption value.
2. It is independent of the importance of the item.
3. The limits of ABC analysis are not uniform but depend upon the size of the undertaking,
its inventory as well as the number of items controlled.
GIL, NDCT & Chimney Package for S.S.T.P.P, Khandwa, M.P Summer Internship Report-2010.
Nicmar Hyderabad. Page 140
Applications of this technique For:
Inventory Control
Criticality of items
Obsolete stock control
Purchase orders
Receipt of materials
Inspection
Store-keeping
Verification of bills
Basis of ABC analysis
This technique is based on Pareto’s Law ( an Italian Economist) which states the rule of
80:20.
Based on the principle that:
- FEW ARE VITAL
- MANY ARE TRIVIAL
This aims to direct efforts where results are important.
“Use of ABC analysis”
Helps in rationalizing the number of orders and reduce the overall inventory even though
overall purchase orders are the same, the average inventory can be reduced substantially.
Steps for classifying the items into A,B,C categories.
1. List out all the items in the inventory.
2. Ascertain the unit cost of each of the items.
3. Ascertain the number of units issued in a year. Assumption: Issues and consumption are
the same.
4. To obtain the annual consumption value multiply the unit cost of each item with the
number of units issued in a year.
5. Sort the list of consumption value of each item in the descending order.
6. Starting at the top of the list compute the cumulative total of the rupee consumption value.
7. Compute for each item the cumulative percentages for the item count and cumulative
annual value.
This is based on cost criteria.
It helps to exercise selective control when confronted with large number of items it
rationalizes the number of orders, number of items & reduce the inventory.
About 10 % of materials consume 70 % of resources
About 20 % of materials consume 20 % of resources
About 70 % of materials consume 10 % of resources

A) .RECEIPT SYSTEM
Receipts into the organisation or store come from many sources:
a. From outside suppliers
b. From rejected stores
c. From surplus stores
d. From scrap generated
e. From empties
f. From stock transfer from other project sites
GIL, NDCT & Chimney Package for S.S.T.P.P, Khandwa, M.P Summer Internship Report-2010.
Nicmar Hyderabad. Page 144
The Receipt system of a store starts much before the actual receipt of materials at the
store. This requires proper planning in advance.
The Purchase order indicating quantity and delivery date is the starting point. Records
should be maintained in a chronological order to show expected daily receipts. So that
the handling and storage can be planned in advance.
This helps in planning labour contracts for uploading, stocking etc. and when to take
delivery – demurrage.
Suppliers send despatch note or advise note to the stores in advance – i.e. Date of
despatch, carrier details, description, value etc.
Document of transport department – LR/RR or consignment note
Packaging slip detailing contents in the package.
Insurance
Actual physical receipts (delivery challan –
a. Verification for quantity, shortages, damages, claims preference.
b. Take open delivery with transporters get shortage or excess or damage endorsed.
Provisional Goods Inward (PGI) – physically received, pending inspection note/report.
Final goods inward note (FGI)
INTERNAL RECEIPTS – transfer note/ return to stores, stock transfer (no sale),
Debit/Credit note, Internal DC (delivery challan) . Where to integrate the quality inspection
dept?
B) .STOCKING
Sorting and storing issues
when volumes are high, provide separate areas for:-
1) Stores awaiting inspection.
2) Stores which are QC inspected, passed and accepted for use.
3) Storage of rejected materials.
( FG not applicable to construction activity directly)
C) .ISSUES
For consumption by internal departments as per order or indent.

11.9 STORES ACCOUNTING
Any inventory item has both physical and financial characteristics. Whereas the physical
characteristics (flow of goods) are factual and measurable, financial characteristics (flow of
costs) are mainly subjective in nature. The financial characteristics associated with the flow of
costs are usually emphasized in stores accounting and valuation.
WHY STORES ACCOUNTING?
Stores accounting plays a very important role for the estimation of the cost of a product for
pricing decisions. Material costing is very important in terms of the valuation of the cost of
materials consumed by say, the production department during a given period of time as well as
in terms of the estimation of the value of materials held in stock. In this context, two important
aspects, viz., costing of the materials receipt and of materials issue, are considered in stores
accounting.
1. Costing of the Receipt of Materials
The factors that are to be included in building up the cost of the materials received are
material price, freight charges, insurance, and taxes. Price usually refers to the price
quoted and accepted in the purchase orders. Prices may often be stated in various ways,
such as net prices, prices with discount terms, free on board (FOB) and cost insurance
and freight (CIF). For costing purposes the actual cost incurred needs to be calculated by
taking price quoted by supplier as the basis, subtracting the discounts and adding any
other expenses not covered.
2. Costing of the Issues of Materials to Production
There are several methods that are in use for costing the issues of materials to the
production and other departments of an organization. First in first out (FIFO), last in first
out (LIFO), average cost, standard cost, base stock method, market price at the time of
issue, latest purchase price, and replacement or current cost methods are a few of the
methods used for this purpose.
Material Costing : Is important for
1) Valuation of the cost of materials consumed, and
2) Estimating the value of materials held in stock. - at various stages

11.9.1 FLOW OF COSTS (or) Pricing material issues
1) ACTUAL COST METHOD.
2) FIFO – FIRST-IN-FIRST-OUT
3) LIFO – LAST-IN-FIRST-OUT
4) HIFO – HIGHEST-IN-FIRST-OUT
5) SIMPLE AVERAGE COST METHOD
6) WEIGHTED AVERAGE COST METHOD
7) PERIODIC AVERAGE COST METHOD
8) STANDARD COST METHOD
9) REPLACEMENT COST METHOD (MARKET PRICE METHOD)
10) NIFO – NEXT-IN-FIRST-OUT METHOD
11) BASE STOCK METHOD
