Terms of Deliverables

The design process, especially in civil engineering and similar disciplines, often results in the production of deliverables called bidding documents, which later become contract documents. Bidding documents typically consist of a package containing the following three components, each of which is discussed in the next sections  

As described by Choi (2004), the following drawings would fall into the category of civil drawings  

when a construction project is completed, the drawings used to guide the construction are updated to show changes made during construction. Such drawings, which are called record or as-built drawings, are subsequently useful to the owner when the structure, facility, or system is used, operated, maintained, and modified.

The work breakdown structure is therefore a method of describing the work to be done in the project in terms of deliverables and the tasks to be accomplished. It involves defining major deliverables and accomplishments during the project and fisting a hierarchy of sub-deliverables and accomplishments. The deliverables and accomplishments are a sum of their sub components and the WBS is a sum of all the elements. A more detailed description of this can be found in any of the general books on Project Management [D-13].
