Importance of Civil Contractor

​A civil contractor is a professional who works in the civil construction industry. This industry is a part of civil engineering. The work and job of this type of contractor are all about the design, construction, and maintenance of the natural and physically built environment. 

Civil Contractor And His Work Complexity

​The work of a civil contractor is related to building contractor services and is very important, skillful and technical. It is all about the art of constructing and designing dams, airports, bridges, canals, roads, and buildings. 

Let’s discuss some of the stages which are covered by a civil contractor during his projects.
When there is a project of civil construction then it is taken as a huge project. Each and every process and stage of this project is itself taken as an independent project. In this way, the efficiency and speed of the project is escalated.
​
The quality of these kinds of projects is maintained by taking out all the time, cost and labor estimations before the work is started on the project.
Now let’s discuss the construction stages of some of the civil construction/engineering projects. 

Stages of a Highway Project 

When there is a highway project in the pipeline, then there are the following stages that are considered.
​

• The selection for plant that is required to be installed at the project site is very important.
• The site for the project is dissipated.
• When it is about the construction of a highway, then its embankment is very important. For that, all the underground work is completed first. In this work, even the earthwork is involved.
• The drainage and all the supplementary pipelines are established before time.
• The construction of the structure for all the designed pavements is done.
• Placement of all the road signs, signals, and lights are put in place. 

Water Supply Project 

When it is about the construction of a water supply system, then that work required precise skills and techniques. The following are the points that are supposed to be given utmost importance.

• Dissipation of the project site.
• The dam structure is built.
• All the controls and spillways are designed and built.
• Connections for all the pumping houses are put in place.
• The addition and construction of transmission lines and water tunnels is done.
• A water treatment plant is constructed.

​Above mentioned are some of the stages of two types of civil construction projects. There are numerous other operations that are involved like machine based digging, manual digging that is done by the labor force, assembling of all the processes, and many other operations as well.
