The objectives of planning are:  \n– To forecast the resource requirements of people, material and equipment.  \n– To forecast the financial requirements.  \n– To provide a suitable control tool against which progress can be measured.  \n– To minimize the unproductive time of both men and machine.  \n– To find the time required completing the project.  \n– To establish the time for delivering the materials required.  \nPRINCIPLES OF PROJECT PLANNING  \nPlanning techniques range from simple bar charts to computerized network analysis. However all techniques are based on certain principles such as:  \ni. The plan should provide information in a readily understood form.  \nii. The plan should be realistic. There is no point, for  \nexample, in planning a building to be completed in six months, if the delivery period for cement is five months.  \niii. The plan should be flexible. It should be possible to alter certain elements without disrupting the entire plan when circumstances change.  \niv. The plan should serve as a basis for progress monitoring and control.  \nv. The plan should be comprehensive. It should cover all the stages from briefing to commissioning.  \nPLANNING TECHNIQUES  \nThe most common and widely used project planning techniques are:  \n1. Bar charts and linked bar charts.  \n2. Network analysis, either activity on the arrow or on the node.  \n3. Line of balance, for repetitive construction work.  \nBAR CHARTS AND LINKED BAR  \nCHARTS  \n• Bar charts are the easiest to understand.  \n• Most widely used form of planning tool.  \n• Even when the more sophisticated techniques like network analysis are used the eventual schedule of work is usually presented in bar chart form.  \n• In the bar chart technique, the list of activities is given and the duration of activities are shown as bars corresponding to each activity.  \n• The length of the bar determines the duration of activities in a time scale system.  \n• The unit of time on construction projects are normally days or weeks or months.
