1. The pre-construction planning process to solve a construction problem consists of five
steps: problem formulation &easibility study 0reliminary planning $etailed planning ©mplementation. The main purpose of taking these steps is to work out the full details of
the best solution by providing necessary information (e.g., project goal, objectives,
constraints, preliminary cost estimation and project duration, etc.) to a design phase. You
will search the Internet to find the schematic design report of any public infrastructure
project and summarize the project information in your report. The project information to
be summarized in your report includes 1) project description (e.g., goal, scope, existing
information, etc.), 2) project constraints (e.g., technical, cost, time, political, etc.) 3) the
list of design standards which were considered for the design of your project, and 4)
preliminary construction cost if applicable.
2. Look up one example of value engineering on the Internet, and discuss the example in onepage maximum.
