Abstract

The basis for success of a construction project, as far as content and execution are concerned, is laid at the start of a project and during the planning stage. Anything that has been left out or handled wrongly during this stage can only be repaired to a limited extent during building construction. Unfortunately, time is very frequently wasted during that stage, which then leads to hectic scenes during the execution of the project and to chances that were plain and simply missed. For this reason, we are going to look at this particular stage in detail.
