This example and the formulas shown below were generously provided by Bernie Deitrick as a follow-up to a posting 2000-08-04 in the microsoft.public.excel.misc newsgroup. Bernie's formulas will be simplified after comments from Harlan Grove and corrections from by Ron Rosenberg on 2003-01-03 The corrections to be made will allow the numbers to be treated arithmetically, though they are being formatted strictly for display. I believe the formula on this page will need some revision based on the following advice by Ron Rosenberg on 2003-01-26 Disadvantage of # #/## formatting, A1: 26 B2: =MROUND(A1,1/32) formatted as # #/## -- MROUND is in Analysis Tookpak displays in B2 as 26 0/1 as would the non Analysis Toolpak Function version B2: =ROUND(A1*32,0)/32 formatted as # #/## for 8ths =ROUND(A1*8,0)/8 -- format as 0 #/## for 16ths =ROUND(A1*16,0)/16 -- format as 0 #/##

Getting Organized for Fast Framing - JLC Online

But smooth, glitch-free projects don't happen by accident. They require good organization, the right tools, and a production mindset. Our company builds 10 or more houses per year; we frame them in-house with a four-man crew that also does exterior finish. We can produce this amount of work because we've broken the framing process down into a series of tightly organized tasks. What follows is an explanation of how we squeeze maximum efficiency out of each step of our process. Prepping the Crew No matter how experienced the members of a crew are, only one person can be in charge. As chief of my crew, I want everyone to understand what we're going to build. We'll pay each framer for up to two hours of study time. Ordering Material You can't be productive unless materials and supplies arrive when you need them.

As a result, methodologies have been developed to reduce the risk of overruns and improve project outcomes. A number of these methods are based upon Lean production principles that focus on identifying value, eliminating waste and creating a smooth flow of materials, information and work. The application of Lean to construction is based upon treating the construction site as a temporary production line and is referred to as Lean Construction. Agile methods have been found to improve the reliability of project delivery in complex environments, by decomposing the scope into small manageable parts, then completing these parts in order of greatest value.

Construction Productivity Time and cost overruns in large scale construction are very common. As a result the construction industry is facing declining productivity. Construction Jobsite Productivity Improvement. K.E. O'Brien & Associates Inc. K.E.
