In keeping with present trends aiming at improving results in construction industry, both by reducing time and cost requirements, and by increasing the quality of production, the authors present elements of a rational work study that could well be implemented in current construction processes. An optimum improvement in the sphere of production continuity, aimed at reducing downtime and shortening time of construction, is described.
