Abstract

The clients of the industry focus mainly on time and cost of the project, they seldom focus on quality. For them if a project is completed within time and least cost overruns then the project is success and if not then its failures. A project manager should educate the client about the project site problems keeping in mind client’s demand and expectations. He should maintain the equilibrium for getting the best output. The equilibrium can be understood by the triangle theory. The problem of quality also faced by U.S. construction industry in past and recently which forced ASCE to publish “Manual of professional practice for quality in a constructed project”. In this project we have develop a integer programming model by doing manual calculations on 5 selected activities and have quantified the quality to use in this model. The quality indicators, which are used during this project, are taken from observation and references. Relation between quality and cost, which will help us to forecast the quality factors limit of total project and cost of it. We have generated the optimal solution and decided the best possible of them.
Keywords: Equilibrium, triangle theory, integer programming, quality indicators, optimization.
