They put up money for the building project or coordinate a group of investors. They ask an architect to design the building and work closely with civil engineers and site coordinators. You will learn more about this in the planning unit. Coming next in the hierarchy are the main contractors. They are responsible for overseeing the whole project. They have to stick to the time schedule and divide the work among the companies. Site agents are in charge of the building site. They have to manage any delays or other problems that may hap­ pen during a construction project. They are also in charge of safety.
