Abstract

In recent trends a wide range of building materials is available for the construction of Civil Engineering structures. The total cost of materials may be up to 50% or more of the total cost incurred in construction project reliant upon the type of project. Therefore the proper management of this single largest component can improve the productivity and cost efficiency of a project and help ensure its timely completion. Effective construction materials management is a key to success for a construction project. Initially, the qualitative information regarding deviation in planned and actual materials was found in terms of S curve analysis using MSP tool. From the result of S curve analysis, the lagging time of the project could be found. To maintain sufficient stock of raw material in period of short supply, to protect inventory against deterioration and control investment in inventories and to keep it in an optimum level an inventory control technique, EOQ analysis was carried out in second phase of study to overcome the problems of stock out.
