The Government

The Department of Public Works and Highways Department is the engineering and construction arm of the government, whose primary role is to constantly innovate in order to meet the best standards of competence when building public works and highways and to utilize infrastructure projects in an effective and efficient manner. While project implementation is closely monitored, unexpected complications can occasionally cause project delays. Delays and associated costs and disputes result in lawsuits, claims, and, in the worst-case scenario, project termination, all of which have a significant impact on the project itself. To acquire knowledge and understanding of the Elements of Delays in the Construction of the DPWH Aurora District Engineering Office (DPWH-ADEO).This was accomplished through an evaluation of documents obtained from DPWH-ADEO, as well as a survey of DPWH-ADEO managers, project engineers, and contractor's representatives using an adapted questionnaire. Three of the primary reasons for suspension in 2019-2020, according to information obtained, were weather-related events, the COVID-19 virus, and the pending completion of another phase. A survey questionnaire revealed that the three most common problems encountered in projects are rain, pandemic-related delays, and order changes. These findings could be used to develop an effective and appropriate construction management strategy for avoiding or, in the event of delays, mitigating DPWH Aurora District Engineering Office delays.

Common Problems

While most literary scholars wish to help readers understand literary texts by providing them with explanatory annotations, we want to go a step further and enable them, on the basis of structured information, to arrive at interpretations of their own. We therefore seek to establish a concept of explanatory annotation that is reader-oriented and combines hermeneutics with the opportunities provided by digital methods. In a first step, we are going to present a few examples of existing annotations that apparently do not take into account readerly needs. To us, they represent seven types of common problems in explanatory annotation. We then introduce a possible model of best practice which is based on categories and structured along the lines of the following questions: What kind(s) of annotations do improve text comprehension? Which contexts must be considered when annotating? Is it possible to develop a concept of the reader on the basis of annotations—and can, in turn, annotations address a particular kind of readership, i.e.: in how far can annotations be(come) individualised?
