1. Accessibility / locations: This is the first of the basic qualifying criteria. The proximity to your area of operation, like work, client accessibility, vendor convenience in case of business premises; schools etc with support facilities like hospitals, shopping bazaar areas in case of residences; and many other criteria consisting of personal preferences help you to zero down on the most convenient location. 2. Soil condition: This can impact the construction cost in a major way. The softer the soil the deeper and stronger the foundation will have to be. 3. Type of Sites: Like the BDA, Housing societies, private land etc. 4. Size, dimension, shape, slope, facings: From the practical angle, these factors can affect the final design, construction and cost to a very large extent. 5.
