Tips for saving Time and Money during construction

Understand the present and future needs of your building.
Ensure that the construction plan, working drawing and the estimated costs are in place before starting construction.
Ensure maximum natural light in all the rooms by providing adequate number of windows and ventilators.
Avoid non-standard size doors and windows or eliminate them altogether, if not necessary.
Use materials available locally.
Plan for regular supply of materials beforehand. This avoids delays in construction.
Maintain minimal stocks of construction materials at the site.
Stock all the raw materials properly so that they are safe.
Fixtures and fittings should be chosen for durability rather than just appearance.
Electrical points need to be minimized.
If air-conditioning is to be used, plan the location in advance.
