4 sections • 11 lectures • 2h 5m total length

Introduction12:45
Learn to build a construction productivity database by collecting site data, calculating labor and equipment productivity and costs with three formulas, and logging daily cycle time in Excel.
Definitions and used template (Form)11:56
Track plaster work productivity with a dedicated daily production sheet, recording tasks, manpower, and equipment to build accurate daily reports and measure man hours and production rate.

Formula and Mechanical case study (FCU)14:56
Use historical data to estimate rate of progress for FC units, including travel time, then apply the FC productivity formula to compute labor hours and update the productivity database.
Case Studies - #2 Architectural and #3 Electrical13:11
Explore case studies on architectural and electrical productivity, calculating rate of progress, man-hours, and system efficiency from plastering and lighting examples, including travel time and crew size considerations.

Formula and architectural case study11:40
Record lighting fixtures in a project database and apply the daily production formula to estimate crew size, man-hours, and duration, guided by rate of progress and system efficiency.
Case studies - Mechanical and Electrical13:53
Build a construction productivity database from site observations and daily reports. Capture metrics like vertical water supply, diameter, floor height, and crew roles to compute man-hours and costs.

Concept and formula8:18
Record site observations and daily data to compute labor hours per unit and cycle time, then estimate productivity and costs using the productivity formula.
Cycle Time - Case study - Flooring Sub-task 112:18
Explore a cycle time case study for flooring sub-tasks, recording daily production, calculating labor and equipment productivity, and estimating cost per square meter to optimize construction productivity data.
Cycle Time - Case study - Flooring Sub-task 27:44
Analyze cycle time and productivity in a flooring tiling sub-task through a case study, recording on-site observations, calculating labor costs for skilled and unskilled workers, and updating the productivity database.
Factors affecting productivity and how to increase productivity10:43
Analyze factors affecting labor and equipment productivity and cost, including project size, crew size, skills, overtime, weather, safety, quality procedures, and planning.
More cycle time8:10
Assess five plastering tasks to optimize cycle time: bonding agent application, fixing beads, brush down, temporary grounds and level beds, and topcoat; estimate daily output and costs per square meter.

Requirements

Nothing required only has a good knowledge in activities carry out and work tasks breakdown.
