EFFICIENT COST MANAGEMENT OF MATERIALS IN CONVENTIONAL AND PRECAST CONSTRUCTION

Objective:To find out cost variations of materials used for the conventional building and precast building, wastage percentage in construction of a commercial building using conventional and precast technology. And to find out the time and cost variations in construction of commercial building using conventional and precast technology. Methods/Analysis: Outwardly the technique of using precast members in construction has played one of the key roles in the industry. This technique has been measured and speckled in terms of cost inference. A Model was carried out on a Residential building project and the data was collected for study and concluded that the use of precast members is a better tradable factor to that of conventional system. Findings: Precast construction saves time and cost when compared to conventional type of construction. Novelty/Improvement: The transformation and revolution in the technology was grown out of the demand of the clients/customers of both residential and commercial purposes. Outwardly the technique of using precast members in construction has played one of the key roles in the industry.
