Site planning in particular, has been the most neglected aspect in the construction industry and the attitude of the engineers has been that it will be done as the project progress. It is important to realize that the site planning will be the conditions that site personnel will live with for the total duration of the construction period. Thus the careful pre-planning is imperative.
Also, since the labor cost on a large project constitute approximately 50 to 60 percent of the total project cost, significant saving can be occurred if the labor force moved freely and quickly
within the site. In 1987, the Construction Industry Institute reported in its “Constructability Concepts File” that temporary facilities are important elements that can either enhance or
adversely affect construction productivity.
