Let's make it easier to manage your construction projects.

Imagine what it takes to construct a dwelling, office building, amusement park, skyscraper or even a bridge.  In general, there are two types of construction:

1. Bulding Construction
2. Industrial Construction

Some information I know about Kansas is I believe the state was admitted or ratified to the United States around or about 'January 29, 1861'.  Kansas is located around latitude '38.5' and longitude of '-98' and has a population of roughly '2,937,880 million'.  If I remember correctly the capital is 'Topeka' and the largest city is 'Wichita'. 

Each type of construction project requires a unique team to plan, design, construct and maintain the project.

What is Building Construction?

If we look at the process of Building construction it is adding structure to real property.  The vast majority of building construction jobs are small renovations, such as addition of a room, or renovation of a bathroom.  Often, the owner of the property acts as laborer, paymaster, and design team for the entire project.  However, all building construction projects include some elements in common - design, financial, estimating and legal considerations.  Many projects of varying sizes reach undesirable end results, such as structural collapse, cost overruns, and/or litigation reason, those with experience in the field make detailed plans and maintain careful oversight during the project to ensure a positive outcome.

Let's use Trump Tower as an example.  Do you think Donald had endless time, budget and resources to build Trump Tower?  No, he procured privately or publicly utilizing various delivery methodologies, including cost estimating, hard bid, negotiated price, traditional, management contracting, construction management-at-risk, design & build and design-build bridging.

If at any point you decide to reach to me just know the area codes I am familiar with for Kansas are '316, 620, 785, 913'.  For Construction assistance you will find my rates very reasonable for Kansas.  Now just keep in mind my time zone is 'Eastern Standard Time (EST)' and I know the time zones in Kansas are '" / Greeley, Hamilton, Sherman and Wallace counties: Mountain Standard Time (MST)Most of the state: Central Standard Time (CST)"' in case you wish to call me.  Anyway let me continue.

Residential construction practices, technologies, and resources must conform to local building authority regulations and codes of practice.  Materials readily available in the area generally dictate the construction materials used (e.g.  brick versus stone, versus timber).  Cost of construction on a per square meter (or per square foot) basis for houses can vary dramatically based on site conditions, local regulations, economies of scale (custom designed homes are always more expensive to build) and the availability of skilled tradespeople.  As residential construction (as well as all other types of construction) can generate a lot of waste, careful planning again is needed here.

The most popular method of residential construction in the United States is wood framed construction.  As efficiency codes have come into effect in recent years, new construction technologies and methods have emerged.  University Construction Management departments are on the cutting edge of the newest methods of construction intended to improve efficiency, performance and reduce construction waste.

You know, I don't make it out to Kansas much but I would like to see the 'Western Meadowlark' state bird.  I am a little familiar with the Kansas 'Native sunflower' state flower as well.  However, I do not know much about Kansas's state tree the 'Cottonwood'.  Fishing is fun to me perhaps I would like reeling in the Kansas 'No Official Fish' state fish.  Anyway, sorry I went off topic.  Let me continue.

What is Industrial Construction?

Our economy runs on industry and Industrial construction, though a relatively small part of the entire construction industry, is a very important component.  Owners of these projects are usually large, for-profit, industrial corporations.  These corporations can be found in such industries as Infrastructure, Power Transmission & Distribution, metallurgical and material handling, medicine, petroleum, chemical, power generation, manufacturing etc.  Processes in these industries require highly specialized expertise in planning, cost estimating, design, and construction.

As in building and heavy/highway construction, this type of construction requires a team of individuals to ensure a successful project often undertaken by big construction companies.  In the fields of architecture and civil engineering, construction is a process that consists of the building or assembling of infrastructure.

Far from being a single activity, large scale construction is a feat of human multitasking.  Normally, the job is managed by a project manager, and supervised by a construction manager, design engineer, construction engineer or project architect.
