Task Variation and the Social Network of Construction Trades
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Construction projects can be complex and managers are faced with the challenge of managing multiple trades working on a large number of interdependent tasks. When one trade or task experiences variation, defined as the ...
Using Pajek and Centrality Analysis to Identify a Social Network of Construction Trades
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Construction project managers are often faced with the challenge of managing a complex construction process consisting of multiple trades working on a large number of interdependent tasks. A social network is a pattern of ...
Effects of Production Control Strategy and Duration Variance on Productivity and Work in Process: Simulation-Based Investigation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Improving productivity and reducing work-in-process are two activities that can improve project performance, but are often difficult to accomplish. The construction process is complex and consists of a large number of ...
Causes of Variation in Construction Project Task Starting Times and Duration
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this research, variation is defined as the time difference between what was planned and what actually happened in terms of task starting times and duration. Variation in construction tasks is important as it can impact ...
Using Last Planner and a Risk Assessment Matrix to Reduce Variation in Mechanical Related Construction Tasks
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Variation, defined for this research as the time difference between what was planned and what actually happened, is important as it can affect the productivity performance of construction tasks. The construction process ...
“Oops” Simulation: Cost–Benefits Trade-Off Analysis of Reliable Planning for Construction Activities
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: “The Oops Game” explores the question, how much should be invested in planning? The simulation offers the opportunity to reduce the risk of an “Oops” by collecting more information or to go ahead and make the choice with ...
