| Abstract | Construction activities is an important factor that contribute to gross domestic product (GDP) in most industrialized and developing countries contributes significantly to universal economic growth (Walsh and Sawhney, 2002). With growing commercialization of human activities, construction industry has been a major commercial activity. Stakes (capital investment) became high as technology advanced. Huge construction projects have been common. Large roads and rails system are taken up. Huge urban centers have been sprung up. Increasingly more and more people are getting engaged in construction and allied industries all over the world. Unlike the construction sector, it is well - known precept that the manufacturing industry has notably well - instituted quality systems. This is due to the differing nature of the two - sectors. Manufacturing calls for repeat process with products primary put out in large batches. On the other hand, construction activities is undertaken in the main in single batches or projects (i.e. one building, one bridge, etc.). Although many of basic processes are repeated from job to job (e.g. concreti ng and plastering), the specifics of application are always changing. However, this is not to say that management systems, which have worked well in the manufacturing industry, cannot be applied to construction. Explains the rationale for project performances in construction phase, and then discusses the proposed solutions on how to get better performance for any cases especially bored piles part of high rise building project for resettlement for relocated people. Quality is one of the critical factors in the success of construction projects. Quality of construction, as well as project success, can be considered as the fulfillment of expectations of the project participants. The construction sector in Vietnam has been struggling with quality issues for many years. Regarding to the practice process, this report has also built the quality management system framework to serve as a management tool for developing next projects. |
