Implementation of Construction Management Strategies for Improving the Functionality of RMC Plants: Improving Construction Management Strategies for RMC Plants

Abstract

Infrastructure development widely spreading across the India due to this the large amount ofconcrete required. But the mail limitation of fulfilling this need is labor availability and space foravailability for concreting. Many time due to negligence of labor the quality of concrete will not achievealso there is a shortage of space for cast in site construction in metro cities .for this reason the RMCconcrete use widely across the country .But these plants faces lot of problems because of theseproblems the functionality of plant hampers. To overcome this effective construction management isrequired. The Indian Construction industry has been traditionally labour oriented. The pace ofmechanization in the past was very slow due to the availability of cheap and abundant labour, lack ofcapital investment and highly fragmented nature of the construction sector. The liberalization of Indianeconomy started from 1989 and paved the way for large-scale investments in infrastructure, industrialand agriculture sectors. The mega projects required speed and quality of construction compatible withinternational standards. It led to partial mechanization of construction industry and advent of Readymixed concrete in India is the outcome of this development. The Ready Mixed Concrete in India oncommercial basis started in 1994 and has achieved about 2 conversion from the site-mixed concreteby the year 2001. It is heartening that the acceptability of Ready mixed concrete is increasing though at aslow pace. The entry of foreign firms and major Indian cement producers in this field are likely to providenecessary boost to this industry in the future. The growth prospects of Ready-mixed concrete areenormous, provided requisite support is given by the regulatory authorities, consumers and decisionmakers. n this Study the detailed study of RMC plant initially carried out then Divide the functions ofRMC plant in different sections then Prepare the detailed questionnaires for each section and circulatedon different RMC plants to understand difficulties facing while operating the RMC plants Then Preparethe detailed remedial plan for each section to overcome the difficulties. Also prepare the checklist foreach section for smooth functionality of RMC plant.
