🔧 𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆: Insufficient Electrical Containment In every project over the past 12 years, a common issue persists: the electrical containment designs provided by MEP consultants during RIBA Stage 4 do not allow enough primary containment. 1. The top image shows a RIBA Stage 4 electrical containment drawing from the MEP consultant, with primary containment routes shown in circulation areas.     2. The bottom image depicts the contractor's drawing, developed with additional containment needed to ensure the actual wiring can be installed. This problem occurs frequently across all contract types, whether design-and-build or design-development. Consultants typically 'label' their designs as Stage 4a, leading to a grey area in deliverables. 𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗶𝘀𝘀𝘂𝗲: • 20%-50% of Additional Primary Containment 𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝗹𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 needed Ensuring sufficient primary containment in the initial design is crucial to avoid costly adjustments. 💬 Have you experienced similar challenges in your projects?

When I first entered the world of building services engineering, I quickly learned one truth: a project is only as strong as the attention given to its details. Over the years, I have spent countless hours on construction sites walking through structures, reviewing drawings, and ensuring that every tank, pump, pipe, fitting, and installation is exactly where it is meant to be. I have realized that site supervision is much more than just overseeing activities. It’s about: >>Ensuring precision. Checking every task against approved plans, models, drawings, material schedules, and BOQs to avoid costly reworks. >>Building relationships. Collaborating with clients, contractors, consultants, and workers to keep everyone aligned and on the same page. >> Maintaining progress and quality. Pushing for timelines without ever compromising on standards. Every MEP project brings its challenges, but the satisfaction of solving problems on the ground and seeing the results take shape is unmatched. I have seen firsthand how effective site supervision can transform a vision into an MEP benchmark that stands tall literally and figuratively. Site supervision is where plans meet reality. It’s the bridge between design and execution, ensuring every step is done right the first time saving not only money but also time. Do not let an overlooked detail cost you thousands in losses or costly rework. Can't be on site or just need someone to oversee your MEP installations?

Why do some construction projects fail? (MEP design is treated as a by the way and not a necessity) Here is what goes on, Get structural and architectural designs - Ignore MEP design. Neglect MEP engineers input - Miss key expertise. Struggle with MEP systems - Loose a lot of money. Conflict between designs - Leeds to costly rework. Do these instead, Source for MEP design - Comprehensive designs. Involve an MEP engineer early enough - Avoid design conflicts. Have an MEP engineer supervise your construction - Compliance and quality. Your construction projects success needs, Planning. Expertise. Collaboration.

What happens when all the necessary teams are involved in the development of the baseline schedule, but at different times? This can also be considered a continuation of my previous post in which I wrote about the lack of coordination between teams that define the baseline schedule. A frequent case also occurs when teams work together, but do not understand the work of the other party. An example I recently had in practice – a large process industry project with many rooms to be finished and handover to Project Owner at different deadlines. The Project Owner's team in charge of construction and architectural works defined the priorities to the Contractor by tying them to the contractual deadlines. Those deadlines defined the sequence of rooms that should be handed over for use. The priorities were divided into 3 different construction phases. Then it's was the turn of the Project Owner's MEP team which also defined its priorities for the handover of the HVAC part of the work. Their priorities were divided into 5 different MEP phases that do not match the phases of their construction counterparts. So, for example, it turns out that in order to hand over the rooms of the first priority, the construction and architectural works from the 1st construction phase and from the 1st and 5th MEP phases must be finished. Given that the 5th MEP phase comes at the very end of the project, it turns out that it is impossible to hand over the first priority rooms within the deadlines defined by fellow construction engineers. Again, the problem comes down to a lack of coordination. And this particular case is usually related to the Project Owner. #constructionplanning #constructionscheduling #projectcontrol #planningengineer
