Write a 4 pages paper on site planning and construction method. For the construction of the art gallery these points were kept in mind while reaching the final design.

Considering these points and a few other, the most suitable design suggested is a RCC frame structure. The columns and beams both the storey will be at same positions but the position of the partition walls for both the storey will have different positions. The partition walls for all the rooms except the entrance hall and the lobby will be of brickwork while that of the entrance hall and lobby will be of hollow PCC blocks.

The location of the site dictates the orientation of the building. The building will face the Lower Ham Road while the lobby will be open at the south, the opening will face the south bank of Thames. The reduced level i.e. the plinth level of the building will be kept well above the boat house to facilitate the river view for the lobby.

The construction plan firstly involves the planning of the program. The gradual execution of projects and activities and the allocation of time and resources to different activities will be done by using planning aiding software i.e. MS Project. In order to avoid conflicts and problems proper constraints and deadlines will be applied to the activities regarding time and resources (procurement as well as human resource.

Excavation and Foundation: The excavation will be carried out using excavator while the geology of the site i.e. near the river requires deep foundations which will be done by drilling precast RCC piles

Super Structure: As stated in the brief the super structure will be a frame structure with brickwork partition walls for all the rooms except the entrance hall and lobby which will utilize hollow PCC blocks in partition walls

As shown in the plan of the ground floor, there’s a large window on the side of the lobby facing the river to facilitate the riverside view. The geometric staircase ensures lesser use of space but looks aesthetically good.
