As-built drawings are the traditional method used by the construction industry to record changes made during construction. As-builts provide valuable information for new design projects as well as rehabilitation and remediation projects. The completeness and accuracy of these plans are essential for transportation industries and their success. While the importance of as-builts is widely recognized, the process of creating them has proven to be difficult. It is a time consuming process and entities often lack the resources necessary to complete accurate and detailed as-builts. After an investigation of current as-built operations within State Transportation Agencies, recommendations have been made to redefine construction "as-built" plans to meet current state transportation needs. First, the importance of a central storage location accessible to all stakeholders cannot be overemphasized. Along with a central storage location, standard guidelines should be developed regarding what information is required to be included within as-built plans. This study's approach to developing such guidelines included meeting with as-built end users and formulating a list of requested information. To ensure as-builts are being completed on time and accurately, it is recommended that as-built plans be developed throughout the project using simple to use editing software on iPads. A PDF editor is ideal for as-built development as PDF is the requested format by most end users. Finally, to ensure this process is being followed by construction, a liaison between as-built developers and users is recommended.

The work is focused on defining the methodology expert procedures for detecting defects in the project documentation in 1949. No legislation or literature this issue far more does not, it is a specific area that the project documentation defects generally are. The methods of the research study; analysis of documents; classification; Analysis - synthesis; induction - deduction; abstraction; comparison (comparison) case studies. Dissertation is focused on creating a systematic procedure for processing expertise, assessing defects in the design documentation in a limited period from 1880 to 1949.

Examensarbetet redogör för byggproduktionsplanering med en fördjupning inom tidsplaneringsmetoder- och verktyg, vilka kan användas som hjälpmedel inom området.  Inom fördjupningen gjordes två praktiska försök och intervjuer genomfördes för att få en verklig bild av hur planeringen fungerar, samt för att få feedback på försöken.  Arbetet resulterade i slutsatsen att olika planeringsmetoder bör användas i olika skeden av byggproduktionsplaneringen, samt att de olika planeringsmetoderna är till olika nytta för de varierande arbetsrollerna i en byggorganisation.  Man kan med fördel använda sig av en kombination av planeringsmetoderna, CPM, LOB och den relativt okända ”Kontinuitetsmetoden” när man planerar och styr sin byggproduktion. Till sin hjälp bör Microsoft Excel och det mer produktionsanpassade programmet PlanCon + väljas.  Efter ett försök i arbetet att upprätta en 3D APD-plan med hjälp av verktyget Google Sketch Up, rekommenderas det varmt. Ett kostnadseffektivt verktyg som skapar en mer än det kostar. / The thesis describes the construction production planning, with focus in planning methods- and tools that can be used as an aid in the field. Within the recess, two practical tests and a couple of interviews were conducted to get an actual picture of how the planning works in the field, and to get feedback on the tests. This work resulted in the conclusion that different planning methods, should be used at various stages of the construction production planning, and that diverse methods have different benefits for different actors in the construction organization. One can usefully use a combination of the planning methods, CPM, LOB and the relatively unknown “Continuity method” when planning and controlling a construction project. For support in this work, Microsoft Excel and the more customized program PlanCon + should be used. After an attempt to create a 3D WPA-plan, using the Google SketchUp software, we strongly recommend it. SketchUp is a cost effective tool that creates more than it costs.
