Subsequently, whether the overall foundation contract budget is affected by assessed risk is determined, and what influence it has on the budget in the light of mitigating factors and associated real costs based on ABC (activity based costs) in real time. This method intended to encourage the adaptation of sustainable risk management in bored piles construction by the site project managers, involving risk analysis concurrently with budgetary review. The methodology was applied and proved and validated on 12 case studies where it´s implementation increased the final site margin. Show less
