INTRODUCTION

Construction can be defined as the action of building something, typically a long


structure such as a tower.
A tower is a tall-narrow building, free- standing or forming part of a building such
as a church or castle.
Simply the construction of a tower simply means the actions of taking to build a
tall narrow structure like the scraper free-standing or forming part of a building.
The following points explain what the construction of a tower comprises and how
their contribution in the construction process.
Context:
Context is defined as the circumstances that form the setting of an event.
A context in the construction of a tower is that external elements that
influences an object. These elements physical and non- physical. Roads,
buildings and land contour are some examples of physical elements while
weather, local culture, as well as potential and economic constraints.
Master planning starts with an assessment of the ecology of the site and
its context; we have to know what is there before we insert anything new.
The context determines the architectural style, building material selection
and site layout which is very important in the construction of a tower.
Purpose:
It is very important to know the reasons for the construction of the tower.
The purpose for constructing the tower lays down all the reason why the
structure should be built. They disclose the benefits of the structure to the
society as a whole. The tower can be used for office work space like our
ever-changing work places.
Quantities:
A tower is not just a tall building but it also gives insight to the
advancement in technology. Quantity can also be amount .this in the
construction of a tower tells us the amount or quantity of the elements
needed in the construction process such as, the quantity of land in plots,
the amount of blocks, amount of metals needed and so on. When this is
made know in the construction process the work would move smoothly.
Quality:
Quality means the standard of something as measured against other
things of a similar kind. When quality is mentioned in the construction of a
tower the concept of quality assurance sets in. Quality assurance includes
measures to meet the required quality. It is necessary to prevent errors
(Sehiz 2010).Quality here typically consists of characteristics and a
paraments.A quality characteristic is an inherent feature of a product or
process related to the requirement. In the context of a construction of a
tower, quality means the tower should posses all the characteristics of a
quality tower and even more due to advancement in technology and
innovation. In short, quality must be ensured in the construction of tower
accidents and all other uncertainties associated with it.

Resources:
It is defined as stock or supply of money, material, staff, and other assets
that can be drawn on by a person or organisation in order to function
effectively.Resoures can be categorized into three types namely, money
resources labour resource and material resources.
Money resources talk about the money or financial capital to be used in
the construction process.
Material resources talks about the tools, equipements and materials
needed or to be used for the construction such as metals, cements, sand,
water, tractors etc.
Labour resources refer to the human resource used for the construction of
the tower. It also talks about the man power needed to complete a job. It
consists of the contractor and his staff and every individual involved in the
construction process.
Time:
This is a very important aspect of every business organisation such as a
construction firm. As the important saying goes time waits for no man so
then man has to make hay while there is sunlight. In constructing a tower
time must be adhered to, to prevent any incoviences.The tower has to be
ready exactly on the time provided.
CONCLUSION
When a building such as a tower is to constructed all the above mentioned
concepts play a very important role to its success. When the context and
purpose for the construction of the tower is clearly stated it becomes
very easy to identify the exact quantities needed to produce a quality
free-standing tower with all the available resources needed coming to
play to ensure that it is ready for use on time or at the time given.
