Answer to Question 1

Weather can impact safety in a variety of ways. For example, in hot
climates it may be advisable to not perform work. If the temperature is 110 F it may
not be safe for workers to be applying asphalt. On such days, work might be schedule
to start as early in the day that workers can safely see what they are doing. If the
temperature is below freezing and there is some rain, it will be unsafe for workers to
be putting up roof decking on a sloped roof

When overhead work is performed, such a placing concrete on the 10th floor of an
office building, work might be stopped on the ground in the area over which the
concrete bucket will be swung. On roadwork, work might be stopped during the rush
hours (assuming very heavy and possibly fast traffic) to reduce the risks for the
construction workers.

Answer to Question 2

Any party involved in the construction process in any way is a potential user
of the schedule. The most obvious individuals would be the supervisory personnel on
the construction site (foremen and superintendents) who would use the information to
communicate with their crews and also with subcontractors. Subcontractors might be
regular users of the schedules because of their need to know when their services will
be required on site. Major vendors will also want to know the project status in order
to plan their material deliveries.

Top managers of the construction firm and representatives of the facility owner would
also be regular users of the schedule, although their interest will be of a more generic
nature to monitor the general status of the project. Sureties and financial lenders may
similarly want to have a general idea of how the project is progressing.
