  • Abstract:
    The need to optimise the Constructional and Technological Aspects of Management for Mass Housing Schemes, stems from the fact that the constructional and technological items associated with housing project management, provide lots of alternative decision problems. The research therefore aims at determining by Systems Approach, the optimal characteristics of the Constructional and Technological Aspects of Housing Project management and establishing the real life problem prototype associated with it, using mathematical model. It is also aimed at establishing the optimal variant and the optimal values of a mass housing programme. An implementation check list for the established model was also installed. The study was limited to the Constructional and Technological Aspects of Management of public mass housing schemes using certain Federal Housing Authority (FHA) and Federal Ministry of Works (FMOW) housing schemes as case study. The data collection method was the descriptive survey method while statistical empiricism and computer iteration were used as data processing methods. Model validation was carried out to determine the acceptability or other wise of the optimisation model. At the end of the study, the subsystems of the housing delivery system were proved to represent the optimal characteristics of the Constructional and Technological Aspects of Housing Project Management. Thus, the delivery variants (or process-technology combination), the house types and the resources (consisting of materials, labour and machinery) constitute the optimal characteristics.
