AN OVERALL GUIDANCE AND PROPOSITION OF A WBS TEMPLATE FOR CONSTRUCTION PLANNING OF HARBORS
Journal Title: Academic Research International - Year 2016, Vol 7, Issue 3
Abstract
The harbors have very important roles in linking the harbors of a country to the overseas harbors, in exchanging the cultures between nations and in import and export of goods and have big impacts on the economy of countries. As an example, for the case study country of this research, Iran, the contribution of harbors and waterways is more than 85% of total goods imported to Iran or exported from this country. Therefore, special attention should be directed to the right planning of harbors. Since the available templates in the literature for WBS to construct a harbor, having the rubble mound breakwaters, are not sufficient, in this paper, a detailed Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) template is proposed for construction of this type of infrastructures. The proposed WBS gives a good guidance to design and construction a harbor and is useful for client, contractor and consultant parties. The proposed WBS template may be used for planning in conceptual, basic and detail design phases. To validate the proposed WBS, a case study was performed on the existing harbors of Iran in the Persian Gulf.
