| feasibility study for construction: Feasibility Studies in Construction Projects Michael Kulwin, 2017-09 Feasibility Studies in Construction Projects covers all aspects of feasibility study analysis including assumptions, the preparation of a feasibility study for submission, and the necessary elements to consider regarding the project cycle. The book also provides templates for use in preparing a feasibility study report. The book offers the reader a step by step guide on how to prepare a feasibility study for a large infrastructure project, showing how problems can be presented in a way which does not prejudice the ultimate outcome of the project. It shows the reader how to identify the weaknesses of a project and make improvements, set assumptions, anticipate and prepare for various eventualities. It further shows how to test the sensitivity of the development as to changes in the original assumptions and business environment, convince prospective investors, venture capitalists, banks, management, stockholders, and government agencies of the relative value or prospects for success of the project. Finally the book explains the vital parts of a project development process and show how the pieces are assembled so they perform together to create a technical and economically feasible concept, thus evaluating the project's potential for success. Offering the reader a step by step guide on how to prepare a feasibility study for a large infrastructure project, this book will be of great interest to engineers, architects, lenders, solicitors, construction project managers, lead developers, investors, governmental planning agencies, stakeholders, and construction bond underwriters as well as construction students. |

| feasibility study for construction: Financial Feasibility Studies for Property Development Tim Havard, 2013-10-30 Essential for any real estate professional or student performing feasibility studies for property development using Microsoft Excel and two of the most commonly used proprietary software systems, Argus Developer and Estate Master DF. This is the first book to not only review the place of financial feasibility studies in the property development process, but to examine both the theory and mechanics of feasibility studies through the construction of user friendly examples using these software systems. The development process has seen considerable changes in practice in recent years as developers and advisors have adopted modern spread sheets and software models to carry out feasibility studies and appraisals. This has greatly extended their ability to model more complex developments and more sophisticated funding arrangements, saving time and improving accuracy. Tim Havard brings over 25 years of industry and software experience to guide students and practitioners through the theory of development appraisals and feasibility studies before providing internationally applicable worked examples and potential pitfalls using Excel, Argus Developer and Estates Master DF. |

| feasibility study for construction: Life Cycle Costing for Construction J.W. Bull, 2003-10-04 The construction industry is becoming increasingly aware of the need to adopt a holistic approach to the design, building, and disposal of structures. With 60 per cent of the total construction budget in most developed countries being spent on repair and maintenance, there is an obvious need to design for reliability and durability, with more carefully planned maintenance and repair schedules. One important facet is to look at how costs are distributed and spent during the lifetime of a structure: an approach known as life cycle costing, which has the ultimate aim of minimising total lifetime expenditure. As an example, choosing an inexpensive coating for steelwork may require maintenance every three years, whereas a coating which is more expensive may require repairing only once per decade. It is a question of balance - taking the lifetime costs of the structure into consideration. This new book provides an insight into how whole life costing is affecting our approach to designing, building, maintaining and disposing of structures. The book is written for consulting engineers in the fields of civil and structural engineering, building designers, architects, quantity surveyors, refurbishing specialists, as well as practising civil and structural engineers engaged in planning, design, construction, repair and refurbishment of structures. |

| feasibility study for construction: Managing Risk in Construction Projects Nigel J. Smith, Tony Merna, Paul Jobling, 2014-02-03 Investment in any new project invariably carries risk but the construction industry is subject to more risk and uncertainty than perhaps any other industry. This guide for construction managers, project managers and quantity surveyors as well as for students shows how the risk management process improves decision-making. Managing Risk in Construction Projects offers practical guidance on identifying, assessing and managing risk and provides a sound basis for effective decision-making in conditions of uncertainty. The book focuses on theoretical aspects of risk management but also clarifies procedures for undertaking and utilising decisions. This blend of theory and practice is the real message of the book and, with a strong authorship team of practitioners and leading academics, the book provides an authoritative guide for practitioners having to manage real projects. It discusses a number of general concepts, including projects, project phases, and risk attitude before introducing various risk management techniques. This third edition has been extended to recognize the reality of multi-project or programme management and the risks in this context; to highlight the particular problems of risk in international joint ventures; and to provide more coverage of PFI and PPP. With case studies and examples of good practice, the book offers the distilled knowledge of over 100 man-years of experience in working on all aspects of project risk, giving sound practical guidance on identifying, assessing and managing risk. |
| feasibility study for construction: A Practical Guide to Writing a Feasibility Study NDALAHWA MUSA MASANJA, 2020-05-01 Given the significance of a feasibility study in decision making and implementation of the project, many people especially potential investors, financiers or even management lack the practical knowledge of feasibility study.

| feasibility study for construction: The Importance of Project Feasibility Study Temba Munsaka, 2013-11-06 Seminar paper from the year 2012 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, ( Atlantic International University ), language: English, abstract: A feasibility study occupies a place of importance in contemporary project management. Decisions on whether to go ahead with a project and whether the intended beneficiaries will benefit from a project are informed by findings that emanate from a feasibility study. A feasibility study also helps project managers to determine whether a project is viable and select the best alternative from an array of alternatives that can address the identified problem. The feasibility study is one of the critical activities that are done at the first stage, the conceptualization phase of the project cycle. Therefore the feasibility study must be done meticulously so it generates appropriate and relevant information that will help project managers and stakeholders to make informed decisions on a given project. It must also be borne in mind that failure by the feasibility study to generate appropriate and relevant information may result in project managers making costly decisions that may impair the original intention or purpose of a project. This paper thus examines the importance of a feasibility study in project management. |
