Table 2: Project activities
Remember to get an approval of the project plan from the paper leader before submitting it to the Client through Canvas assignment submission. The Client has enormous concerns about resources use. The Client must-finish-by duration is Twelve (12) months from the start-on-date, and the start-on-date is 10-03-2022. However, minimising resource usage is the preferred choice if there is a conflict between Budget and time. The Client’s aim is profit-quality led with no compromise to safety. The total project cost is NZD 500,000, and any cost deviations should be between +2.5% to -2.5%. Table 3 is the terms and definitions used in this project assignment 1 document.

Question 2.2: The Construction Company New Zealand strategic targets of the project, include waste reduction, profit maximisation, and on time delivery of project. Cost reduction, productivity improvement, and enhancing the company image are also the company strategic goals. In a tabular format, apply the appropriate quantitative and qualitative values to the targets/goals that will drive the project planning. Do not use P6.
6.2.3 Task 3: Master WBS
The WBS is a hierarchical structure, demonstrating the breakdown of work in project/milestone/deliverables/ activities/sub-activities.
Each project should adhere to its conditions, constraints, and specifications. You have several tools to develop the WBS, such as Microsoft tools and Visio, draw.io, P6 etc.
Lecture 5.1: Question 3:
Question 3.1: List the project milestones. Do not use P6.
Question 3.2: Develop, first graphically and then in P6, the multiple levels of the WBS hierarchy of the created project with the milestones, tasks, work packages and level of effort. Note: see Table 2.
Question 3.3: What happens to the activities assigned to a WBS element when you move or delete the element, and why?
Question 3.4: Is it possible to make a WBS element the child of a different parent, and Why?
6.2.4 Task 4: Planning the Project Activities
The planning of the project activities produces project activities and types. It also explains the activity steps, with relevant codes and activity documentations like constraints, assumptions and construction step and potential hazards. Plan a detailed activity (task) list in 6.
Lecture 5.2.1: Question 4:
From the WBS and using P6:
Question 4.1: Add the activities in P6, with unique IDs. Note: see Table 2.
Question 4.2: Add P6 Notebook topic to the activities, including any constraints, assumptions, construction steps and potential hazards.
Question 4.3: Add Five (5) Levels of effort to any of the activities. Highlight the level of efforts to show to the Client.
Question 4.4: List Five activities types in the notebook.
Question 4.5: From the added activities, list four task-dependent milestones and one start milestone.
Question 4.6: Create and apply the project calendar in P6 to the project activities.
Students should implement the following when creating the project calendar:
1. Consider all the public holidays in Auckland during the project duration
1. Work hours/day for every Monday is 4 hours starting from am, and Friday is also 4 hours beginning from am.
1. Some constructions days include exceptions, Saturday and Night work.
1. Then ensure you implement the project calendar with the
information from 1) – 3) above under Question 4.7
Question 4.7: How many calendars can be created in P6?
Question 4.8: Highlight and show the default calendar for this project?
Question 4.9:
The excavation activities of the project during the initial planning estimation requires two days. The project team assigned one labourer, one site engineer and one excavator to finish the excavation. The weekly work calendar (Table 4) allows the labourer and site engineer to work not all the days of the week because of mandatory HSE training.
With the table (Work Calendar) below,
Show how many days, inside the work calendar Table 4, will the task be scheduled, based on the following activity types in Question 4.9a & Question 4.9b.
Table 4: Work calendar
W = work day
X = nonwork day
Table 1: Work calendar
Question 4.9a: Task Dependent.
Do not use P6.
Question 4.9b: Resource Dependent.
Do not use P6.
6.2.5 Task 5: Method Statement with JHA. Do not use P6.
The method statement should explain the proposed
method of the building; it can be tabulated or in bullet points.
Should have an indication and estimate for activity
durations. A logical sequence should be observed and
apparent. Students should acknowledge safety considerations
based on the identification of the main hazards. Accordingly, as
part of the common practice, the construction and safety
method statement for each work activity should be
combined into a single document.
Lecture 5.3: Question 5:
Question 5.1: Produce a method statement, in a tabular format, of activities for construction works (WBS code 1.5).
Question 5.2: Add JHA table to the construction works (WBS code 1.5) in Question 5.1

Academic Dishonesty
The following are extracts from the Faculty policy on academic discipline:
"Rationale"
At AUT, we aim to develop confident, capable learners. In our learning, teaching, and assessment, we emphasise students' active engagement with their learning and the development of critical thinking and communication capabilities. By insisting that students are honest in submitting assessed work, we demonstrate the importance of each student gaining and demonstrating a deep understanding of the disciplines they are studying.
The University has an obligation to preserve the integrity, rigour, and fairness of its assessment procedures and granting credit to students. This means ensuring that students are only given credit for work that abides by the principles of honesty, integrity and fairness. Plagiarism, copying, unauthorised collaboration are all forms of dishonesty in an assessment that breach these principles.
http://www.aut.ac.nz/__data/assets/pdf_file/0004/577210/Academic-Calendar-2015.pdf pg 105.
It is a breach of the AUT Academic Statute for a student to engage in any unfair practices in submitting any assessment materials at AUT, including resubmitting previously submitted work without gaining permission beforehand. Any breaches observed will be penalised.
The faculty policy also defines forms of cheating and academic dishonesty".
"Plagiarism
The Faculty of Design and Creative Technologies defines Plagiarism as occurring where a person effectively and without acknowledgement present others' work as their work. That may include published material such as visual images, audio clips, books, newspapers, code, lecture notes or handouts, materials from the Internet or other students' written work.
Note that the definition includes visual and audio work such as a photograph, video, illustration or artwork. All the sources used must be credited, including:
· images used in an artwork, piece of design or illustration.
· code copied from a book or website.
· direct reference to a concept from an existing piece o
