Crew Size & Leadership
Whether doing your own project or leading projects for others, there are several questions to answer before beginning construction. Each of the questions below will help you refine your plan and understand your needs as you approach your project.
- What is an efficient size for a crew?
- Evaluate the size of the job and the amount of work that needs to be done at each stage of the project.
- Small jobs can typically be completed with a small crew of 3-5
- Larger jobs or projects with added complexity factors may require a larger crew
- How can I evaluate crew efficiency?
- What makes the project move quickly, but will also ensure high-quality work and safety.
- What steps can I take now that will save time later or reduce risk or complexity? One example might be creating window bucks and supports in advance so they can easily be set in place.
- What roles will my crew need to perform?
- Forming ICF Walls (# PSF)
- Placing Rebar (# PSF)
- Cutting and Placing Bucking (# PSF)
- Erection of Bracing, scaffolding, and strapping before pouring (# PSF)
- Pouring ICFs / Vibrating & Consolidating / Aligning (# PSF)
