I applied via Naukri.com and was interviewed before Sep 2019. There were 5 interview rounds.
The construction cost was $10 million.
The total cost of construction was $10 million.
The cost included materials, labor, and equipment.
The project was completed within budget.
The cost was higher than anticipated due to unexpected delays.
The cost was lower than expected due to efficient planning and management.
I will analyze the reasons for the cost overrun and develop a plan to mitigate it.
Identify the root cause of the cost overrun
Review the project budget and timeline
Develop a plan to reduce costs without compromising quality
Communicate the situation to stakeholders and seek their input
Implement the plan and monitor progress closely
It depends on the project and its priorities.
Cost over run may be acceptable if the project has a tight budget and the delay is not critical.
Time over run may be acceptable if the project has a strict deadline and the additional cost can be managed.
Both cost and time over runs should be avoided as they can impact the project's success and reputation.
The decision should be based on a thorough analysis of the project's p...
It depends on the project and its priorities.
If the project is time-sensitive, then time under budget is worse.
If the project has a fixed deadline, then cost under budget is worse.
If the project has both time and cost constraints, then it depends on which constraint is more critical.
In general, it is better to have a balanced approach to managing both time and cost.
It is important to communicate any deviations from the

I applied via Referral and was interviewed in Jul 2024. There was 1 interview round.
Baseline schedules should be updated regularly to reflect changes in project scope, timeline, and resources.
Baseline schedules should be updated at key project milestones or when significant changes occur.
Regular updates ensure that the schedule remains accurate and reflects the current status of the project.
Updates should be communicated to all stakeholders to keep them informed of any changes.
Examples of changes that...
Crashing of schedule is a technique used in project management to shorten the project duration by adding more resources.
Crashing involves adding more resources to critical path activities to reduce the overall project duration.
It is typically used when there is a need to meet a deadline or when there are financial incentives for early completion.
Crashing may increase project costs due to the additional resources requir...
I applied via Referral and was interviewed before Oct 2023. There were 2 interview rounds.
Planning engineers are responsible for creating project schedules, monitoring progress, and ensuring timely completion.
Develop project schedules using software like Primavera P6
Monitor project progress and identify potential delays
Coordinate with various teams to ensure timely completion
Prepare reports on project status and communicate with stakeholders
Implement changes to the schedule as needed to keep the project on
Critical path is the longest sequence of tasks in a project that must be completed on time to ensure the project finishes on schedule.
Critical path helps in identifying the tasks that are crucial for the project timeline.
It determines the shortest possible duration for completing the project.
Any delay in tasks on the critical path will directly impact the project's overall timeline.
Activities on the critical path have ...
Density of steel is approximately 7.85 g/cm^3.
The density of steel is commonly expressed in grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm^3).
The density of steel is approximately 7.85 g/cm^3.
Different types of steel may have slightly different densities.
Weight of steel can be calculated by multiplying the volume of steel by its density.
Calculate the volume of steel (length x width x height)
Determine the density of the specific type of steel being used
Multiply the volume by the density to get the weight
Example: Weight of a steel plate with dimensions 2m x 1m x 0.1m and density of 7850 kg/m^3 would be 2 x 1 x 0.1 x 7850 = 1570 kg
Number of tiles can be calculated by determining the area to be covered and the size of each tile.
Calculate the total area to be covered by multiplying the length and width of the space.
Determine the size of each tile in square units.
Divide the total area by the size of each tile to get the number of tiles needed.
Consider adding extra tiles for cuts and wastage.
For example, if a room is 10 feet by 12 feet and each tile
Quantity can be arrived at by calculating the dimensions and quantities of materials needed for a project.
Calculate the dimensions of the project area
Determine the materials needed for the project
Estimate the quantities of materials required based on the dimensions and specifications
Consider factors such as wastage and additional materials for contingencies
Use software tools like AutoCAD or Excel for accurate calculati
Cost analysis involves evaluating the expenses associated with a project or operation to determine its financial feasibility.
Identify all costs associated with the project or operation, including direct and indirect costs.
Break down costs into categories such as labor, materials, equipment, overhead, and contingency.
Compare actual costs to budgeted costs to identify any variances and analyze the reasons behind them.
Use...

Code for method of measurement is a standardized set of rules and guidelines used to quantify and evaluate the work done in a construction project.
Codes for method of measurement provide a uniform and consistent way to measure quantities in construction projects.
They help in accurately estimating costs, monitoring progress, and resolving disputes.
Examples include CESMM (Civil Engineering Standard Method of Measurement)...

Planning/scheduling of project involves several activities that need to be sequenced properly.
Identify project scope and objectives
Breakdown project into smaller tasks
Determine task dependencies and sequence
Estimate task duration and resource requirements
Develop project schedule
Monitor and control project progress
