PMP® FORMULAS

PMP Formulas are the backbone of project control in PMI standards and are critical for integrating project scope, schedule, and cost control. When combined with scheduling tools like CPM or Digital BIM-based Project control, they enable real-time tracking, forecasting, and decision making.

Example: PV = BAC × Planned % Complete

PV = Planned value

BAC = Budget at completion (Total project budget)

EARNED VALUE MANAGEMENT FORMULAS

EV = % Complete × BAC

PV = Planned % × BAC

AC = 5 Actual Costs

SV = EV-PV

CV = EV - AC

CPI = EV/AC

EAC₁ = BAC/CPI

EAC₂ = AC + (BAC - EV) (atypical)

EAC₂ = AC + (BAC - EV)/(CPI × SPI)

ETC = EAC - AC

VAC = BAC - EAC

TCP! BAC. = (BAC - EV) (BAC - AC)

These formulas enable project managers to quantify project health, forecast outcomes, and make data-driven decisions. They form the backbone of integrated project control, linking schedule, cost, and scope for effective project delivery.

Typical Detail: RC Slab Drop Panel 典型细节: 钢筋混凝土板 Drop Panel by Sonetra KETH

Drop panels are reinforced concrete extensions around the top of shear walls, columns, or heavily loaded areas. They are critical elements in seismic and load-resistant structural design. Slab drop panels are thickened areas around columns in flat slab construction, increasing shear strength and enabling the slab to support greater loads. This feature is typical of flat slab systems, which are two-way reinforced structures.

Drop Panels are needed because:

Shear and Moment Resistance: They enhance the capacity of vertical structural elements (shear walls or columns) to resist bending moments and shear forces, especially at the critical junctions (e.g., wall-column interfaces).

Reduce Stress Concentrations: Drop panels distribute concentrated shear and axial loads more evenly into the foundation or diaphragm, preventing stress concentrations and potential structural failure.

Increase Structural Rigidity and Stability: They improve the overall stiffness and robustness where high load or seismic forces are expected, especially in high-rise or seismic zones.

Typical Detail: Column-Slab Section Views 典型细节: 钢筋混凝土柱和板 剖面图 by Sonetra KETH

Much engineering judgment is required to reach a sound conclusion on the allowable movements that can be safely tolerated in a tall building. Several factors need to be taken into account. These are:

Type of framing employed for the building

Magnitude of total as well as differential movement

The rate at which the predicted movement takes place

Type of movement, whether the deformation of the soil causes tilting or vertical displacement of the building

Every city has its own particular characteristics regarding the design and construction of foundations for tall buildings, which are characterized by the local geology and groundwater conditions. Their choice for a particular project is primarily influenced by economic and soil conditions, and even under identical conditions, it can vary in different geographical locations. In this section, a brief description of two types, namely, the pile and mat foundations, is given, highlighting their practical aspects.

NOREA ISLAND SATELITE CITY NOREA ISLAND 卫星城

According to Prime Minister Hun Manet, there is a plan to build one of the tallest buildings, which is 555 meters tall, and also the tallest in the region

据洪马奈总理称，正在计划建造一座高 555 米的建筑，这也将是该地区最高的建筑

Koh Norea is currently emerging as an exceptionally promising location, and its future prospects are even brighter. Looking ahead, the area is poised to host a diverse range of significant and vital sectors, contributing to its overall appeal and economic growth. Among these developments, we can anticipate the construction of state-of-the-art commercial buildings, designed to accommodate a variety of businesses and retail outlets. Furthermore, Koh Norea will offer opulent and sophisticated living spaces in the form of luxury residences, catering to a discerning clientele. The hospitality sector will also be well-represented, with the establishment of numerous international hotels providing high-quality accommodation and services for both tourists and business travelers. In addition to residential and hospitality offerings, the area will feature spacious and contemporary office buildings, creating a dynamic and professional environment for various industries. Finally, residents and visitors alike will benefit from a wide array of leisure facilities, ensuring a vibrant and enjoyable lifestyle with plenty of opportunities for recreation and entertainment. Currently, the Koh Norea City Development Project also has properties for sale, such as land for villas and land for commercial building construction along the Mekong, Tonle Sap, and Tonle Bassac rivers, which is the perfect location for Phnom Penh.

Norea City is a satellite city developed by OCIC in Phnom Penh, with an investment exceeding $2.5 billion. As a satellite city, it's designed to be self-sufficient and reduce reliance on the main city. The substantial investment suggests a large-scale development project, likely encompassing residential, commercial, and possibly industrial components. Its location within the capital city indicates a strategic positioning to benefit from existing infrastructure and market opportunities, while potentially alleviating congestion in the core urban area.

卫星城，也被称为卫星镇，是一种特殊的城市形态。它指的是围绕着一个大型中心城市——该中心城市通常在一个特定区域内扮演着主导角色，而非仅仅在经济、政治或特定领域具有单一优势——呈卫星状分布的城镇或县城。 这些卫星城在地理位置上与中心城市存在紧密的联系，如同卫星围绕行星一般。 它们的存在和发展往往受到中心城市的影响和辐射。由于世界各地以及同一国家的不同区域之间，行政区划的类型千差万别，复杂多样，这导致了对“镇”的理解存在一定的灵活性。 因此，这里的“镇”不应被狭义地理解为传统意义上的农村集镇。 实际上，它可以泛指以非农业人口为主的多种行政区划类型。这意味着卫星城可以是城市周围的县城，也可以是具有一定城市规模和基础设施的卫星城镇，这些城镇的共同特点是与中心城市的功能互补，并在一定程度上依赖中心城市的发展。 换句话说，卫星城在功能上通常会分担中心城市的某些功能，例如居住、工业、教育等，从而缓解中心城市的人口压力和资源紧张状况。 它们与中心城市共同构成一个更大的城市群或都市圈，彼此相互依存，共同发展。

HOW DOES THE CLIENT INITIATE THE PROCESS regarding their construction project?

The client initiates a construction project by defining the project's scope, objectives, and constraints, often through a project initiation document or feasibility study. This includes outlining the project's purpose, parameters, and scope. The client then typically engages with a design team to develop preliminary designs and schematic plans. Once the client approves the design, it's time to release the construction documents and begin the construction phase. They initiate the construction process primarily during the preconstruction phase. A key step involves the release of a Request for Quote (RFQ). This document includes the project design. This sets the groundwork for the build and allows the client to solicit bids from contractors. The client management process becomes more complex for commercial clients with large-scale projects.

As a Project Manager and a Master of Architecture with experience in Project and Design Management in large-scale commercial facilities, multi-story offices, high-rise administration buildings, residential buildings, educational buildings, and industrial buildings, I recognize the significance of efficiently starting a project. When the client begins the process, it usually includes several crucial steps:

Defining the Project Scope: The client should clearly define the objectives, requirements, and constraints of the project. This includes outlining the desired outcomes, budget, timeline, and any specific architectural requirements.

Engaging Stakeholders: The client should identify and engage relevant stakeholders such as end-users, project sponsors, architects, engineers, and other key parties. It's important to understand their needs and expectations from the project.

Selecting the Project Team: The client may be involved in selecting the project team, including architects, designers, engineers, and other professionals. They should ensure that the team has the necessary expertise and experience to deliver the project successfully.

Establishing Communication Channels: The client should set up clear communication channels to facilitate effective collaboration between all project stakeholders. This may involve regular meetings, progress reports, and a centralized platform for sharing project information.

Setting Project Goals and Deliverables: The client needs to work with the project team to establish specific goals, milestones, and deliverables for the project. This includes defining the architectural design requirements, construction phases, and any other project-specific deliverables.

Developing the Project Plan: The client, in collaboration with the project team, should develop a comprehensive project plan that outlines the overall project approach, timeline, budget, and resource allocation.

Risk Assessment and Mitigation: The client should identify potential risks and challenges associated with the project and work with the project team to develop strategies for mitigating these risks.

Legal and Regulatory Compliance: Ensuring that all legal and regulatory requirements are considered and addressed is crucial. This includes obtaining necessary permits, adhering to building codes, and meeting any other legal obligations.

Signing the Project Agreement: Once the initial project parameters are defined, the client and the project team should formalize their agreement through a signed contract or agreement that outlines the scope, responsibilities, and terms of the project.

Effective initial steps build a strong foundation, paving the way for successful project delivery.

WBS

Work Breakdown Structure is the backbone of any halfway decent project management effort. Think of it as your project roadmap, broken down into manageable, bite-sized chunks. No more staring at the whole enchilada, overwhelmed. We're talking about taking that massive, hairy goal and slicing it up like a Thanksgiving turkey.

Without a WBS, you're just winging it, hoping for the best. You're losing track of tasks, blowing budgets, and missing deadlines. Nobody wants that.

Lift Shaft Wall Detail for Lift Manufacturers & Suppliers 电梯井壁细节 | Chi Tiết Tường Trục Thang Máy

Providing Lift Shaft Wall Details for lift manufacturers and suppliers in a multi-story construction project involves a collaborative effort among various project team members, including the Architectural Design Team, the BIM Manager, and the Project Manager.

Initial Design Coordination: In this design coordination phase, the Architectural Design Team and the Project Management Team must collaborate. The Architectural Design Team must conduct an initial design review to establish the lift shaft's requirements, including dimensions, materials, and structural support. They should prepare preliminary drawings showing the lift shaft's location in the building layout and its relation to surrounding elements, such as walls and service areas. Meanwhile, the Project Manager oversees the overall project timeline and ensures that design requirements are integrated from the beginning. They coordinate meetings with stakeholders, including clients, engineers, and lift manufacturers, to clarify expectations and gather initial input.

Development of Lift Shaft Specifications • Architectural Design Team: Develops detailed specifications for the lift shaft walls, including dimensions and geometry, material specifications (e.g., reinforced concrete, drywall), and acoustic and fire safety requirements based on local codes and standards (e.g., DDA/ADA compliance). • Engineering Input (Structural and MEP Engineers): Collaborate closely with the architectural team to ensure structural integrity and proper integration of mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) systems within the lift shaft.

BIM Model Integration • BIM Manager: Integrates the lift shaft design into the Building Information Modeling (BIM) system. Provides a 3D model of the lift shaft and its walls, which includes detailed specifications and dimensioning. Ensures that the lift shaft model is compatible with other building elements, resolving potential clashes (e.g., ductwork, piping) before construction. • Coordination Review: The BIM Coordinator or other BIM professionals should use BIM tools for clash detection to identify and resolve clashes that conflict with surrounding design elements.

Preparation of Detailed Drawings • Architectural Design Team: Prepares comprehensive detailed drawings for the lift shaft walls, including the Section drawings showing wall thickness, reinforcement, and connections to adjacent elements, Elevation drawings indicating the heights and dimensions of the lift shaft, and any required openings for access and maintenance and the Detail drawings of junctions between the lift shaft walls and floors or ceilings, including necessary waterproofing or fireproofing transitions. • BIM Manager: Ensures that the 3D model is accurately reflected in the detailed drawings for consistency and clarity.

Review and Approval Process • Architectural Manager: Reviews all architectural drawings, specifications, and BIM models to ensure adherence to design standards and project requirements. Facilitates a review process with stakeholders, including lift manufacturers and the project team, to ensure that the designs meet performance requirements. Collects feedback, addressing any concerns before finalizing details. • Client Review: The Architectural Manager conducts meetings with the client to present the lift shaft details, confirming they meet the client’s vision and needs.

Final Documentation Submission • Project Manager: Oversees the final compilation of documents, including the lift shaft detail drawings, specifications, and BIM files, for submission to lift manufacturers and suppliers. • Architectural Design Team: Provides all relevant documentation with precise labeling and annotations to clarify dimensions and specifications. • BIM Manager: Prepares a BIM data package for lift manufacturers, which may include links to relevant sections in the BIM model, ensuring it can be used for further coordination or fabrication.

Ongoing Communication with Manufacturers • Architectural Design Team and Project Manager: Maintain open lines of communication with lift manufacturers and suppliers to clarify details and address any technical questions that may arise during the fabrication and installation process. • Incorporating Modifications: If modifications are necessary based on feedback from the manufacturers, the Architectural Design Team revises the documents and redistributes them as required.

Construction Phase Coordination • BIM Manager: Continues to support coordination efforts during construction, ensuring that the installation of lift shaft walls is carried out according to the approved details. • On-Site Inspections: The Project Manager arranges site visits to ensure compliance with the details provided to lift manufacturers, addressing any issues in real-time with the construction team.

Post-Construction Review and Evaluation • Post-Occupancy Evaluation: After the lift shaft installation, the Architectural Manager and design team conduct evaluations to ensure the lift functions as intended and meets occupancy needs. • Documentation of Lessons Learned: The team documents insights gained during the process for future projects, improving the overall management of lift shaft details within the architectural workflow.
