Using Improved Genetic Algorithms to Facilitate Time-Cost Optimization
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Time-cost optimization problems in construction projects are characterized by the constraints on the time and cost requirements. Such problems are difficult to solve because they do not have unique solutions. Typically, ...
Resource-Activity Critical-Path Method for Construction Planning
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this paper, a practical method is developed in an attempt to address the fundamental matters and limitations of existing methods for critical-path method (CPM) based resource scheduling, which are identified by reviewing ...
Intelligent Hoisting with Car-Like Mobile Robots
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The construction industry’s traditional hoisting system always needs workers to complete the tasks involved, with concomitant extra labor costs and attention to the workers’ safety. This paper describes the development of ...
Worksite Accident Impacts on Construction and Infrastructure: Nondeterministic Analysis of Subsectors and Organization Sizes
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Worksite accidents in the construction and infrastructure industries result in cost overruns and schedule downtimes. Previous research has analyzed cost and schedule deviations caused by worksite accidents within these ...
