Abstract
All construction projects begin with an idea, resulting from a perception of a need, and in the process of its provision aim to make a profit. First we need funding. This may come from a private or governmental source but in either case some form of study is required to prove demand and viability. Professional help in the form of a Civil Engineer or Architect should be employed to help the Client put together a feasibility study and subsequently plan the project.
