Construction projects can be challenging enough in themselves were it not for the
tremendous amount of documentation required from meetings, payment estimates,
requests for information, change orders, etc. Much of this documentation, usually
in the form of printed or photocopied material, is disseminated following
meetings. Unfortunately, only a small amount of this information is actually
read. More often, it is simply filed away until, of course, it's needed. Project
web sites offer an efficient way to make information available to any authorized
member of the construction team including the owner, engineer, contractor, and
subcontractors. Selected portions of the project web site can even be made
available to the media and general public to keep them informed of progress as
well. Once put into service, these web sites can be very easy to maintain and can
easily be made secure allowing only authorized, read-only access to
correspondence, contract document specifications and drawings, construction
photos, meeting minutes, testing results, progress payments, change order
requests and approvals, requests for information, etc. This paper presents
examples of information that should be considered when designing a project web
site. Includes figures.
