Characteristics of Design
Essential pre-requisites for successful design:
Clearly stated objectives including functional requirements, resources and
timing
Performance criteria modified and refined as design proceeds
Planning for operation undertaken interactively with execution of the
project
Recognition that appreciation of risk is a necessary preliminary to the
control of risk
Professionals engaged in unified design team
Excellence in engineering leadership to:
Effectively blend the contributions from all of the team
Steer the design through the design process
Ensure that the engineering design solution is appropriate, balancing
function against efficiency across all disciplines
15
Documentation of Design Basis
Essential that state of knowledge at a particular time is clearly stated as the
basis of the design:
Assists review of the design as it develops
Allows optimisation of design if subsequent information changes knowledge
Provides evidence in the event of failure and litigation
Facilitates continuity where changes are made in project participants:
Avoids duplication of previous work
Highlights areas of concerns that are yet to be resolved
Use of Issues and Assumptions Logs:
Issues Log: to record current design issues and their close-out
Assumptions Log: to record assumptions that were made, their close-out or
current status

Management of Risk
26
A plan whatever it may be must be made for the bad ground, it must
be calculated to meet all exigencies, all disasters and to overcome
them after they have occurred

Risk related to unforeseen Ground Conditions
It is proposed that the Engineer, who will have had much greater
opportunity to direct the site investigation carried out and weigh the
results in relation to his design and the aims of the project, should
define, within limits and where appropriate, the ground deemed to
be foreseeable and so provide reference conditions for the ground.
These would then be accepted . as the range of conditions which .
would be used to judge if the physical conditions and artificial
obstructions encountered could not reasonably have been foreseen
by an experienced contractor.

NEC Engineering and Construction Contract
Provisions of the Contract promote good project management, if used
carefully and appropriately:
Parties to work in a spirit of mutual trust and cooperation
Importance placed on the programme
Risk Register and Early Warning mechanism
Submissions to be made to the Project Manager / Supervisor for acceptance
Separation of the role of the Engineer:
Project Manager: Manage the Contract and meet the Clients objectives
Supervisor: Check that works are undertaken in accordance with the Contract
Adjudicator
Continuity of Engineering:
Designer can be available to the Project Manager for advice
Designer can be the Supervisor
Designer can form part of the Supervisor's team

The 7 Habits of Successful Projects
Be Proactive.
Begin with the End in Mind. Activities should be undertaken with a
clear understanding of how they contribute to the overall successful
delivery of the project.
Put First Things First. Projects can be hectic focus on whats really
important.
Think Win / Win. Look to organise projects so that all participants
enjoy success.
Seek First to Understand . and then to be Understood.
Synergise. Projects are successfully developed through the
collaboration many disciplines and organisations. Successfully
integrating these is critical to project success.
Sharpen the Saw. Develop people the greatest asset. Enable
organisational learning from completed projects.

Application of Lean Thinking to Major Projects
Continuous Process Flow to Bring Problems to the Surface
Checking of design calculations: errors are better identified early, before many
drawings are affected.
Defects in segment design or manufacture that only become apparent when
erected. Consider need for trials?
Periods of hiatus in projects increases the need for rework; for example due to
changing standards or requirements.
Pull not Push
Construction Planning prior to procurement of Contractor: understand why it is
being done and how it is incorporated into the Tender.
Advanced numerical analysis (Finite Element Analysis): consider carefully when
numerical modelling is appropriate.
Supply Chain
Establish procurement process to bring construction involvement into design.
Collaboration with key suppliers.
