Abstract
In today’s competitive market in India, it is very important for projects to stay profitable as profit margins are getting smaller and smaller. Therefore cost control of projects becomes the most essential element of the projects. The success of the construction project directly depends on the how the management reduces the cost of the work. In major construction projects material management & planning is an important and complex function which needs substantial improvements. This paper reports on a study carried out to explore potential cost control of residential project using alternative material which has larger impact on the total construction cost. The literature survey and data collected from construction site has been studied to identify the way of cost control in construction project through use of different material. In this paper we focus on road construction to clear the idea if we use alternate material and method then we can save the cost of project.
