Developing a Versatile Subway Construction Incident Database for Safety Management
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: It is very difficult to implement quantitative risk assessment (QRA) for safety management in subway construction because of to the shortage of sufficient information about accidents happening in subway construction. QRA ...
A Feature-Level Fusion-Based Multimodal Analysis of Recognition and Classification of Awkward Working Postures in Construction
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Developing approaches for recognition and classification of awkward working postures is of great significance for proactive management of safety risks and work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) in construction. ...
BIM Value Creation through Collaboration in Construction Projects: An Empirical Model with Multiple Collaborative Behaviors
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Building information modeling (BIM) use suffers from low performance in many construction projects. Although collaboration is critical for BIM value achievements, the underlying mechanism of BIM value creation through ...

Developing Key Performance Indicators for Public-Private Partnership Projects: Questionnaire Survey and Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Public-private partnerships (PPPs) are increasing in popularity. Major challenges in the development of PPPs have resulted from the global financial crisis. However, with respect to their monetary value, PPPs are still an ...
Methodology for Assessing the Sustainability of Metro Systems Based on Emergy Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The sustainability of a metro system is important not only to itself but also to local socioeconomic development. However, very few methodologies can be found for assessing the sustainability of metro systems, especially ...
Performance Objectives Selection Model in Public-Private Partnership Projects Based on the Perspective of Stakeholders
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Over the years, public-private partnership (PPP) has been acknowledged by many as an innovative approach to the procurement of public projects. The desire for more efficient and effective PPP projects renders the performance ...
Using Grounded Theory Methodology to Explore the Information of Precursors Based on Subway Construction Incidents
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Precursor management has been studied and applied across a wide range of industries. The findings demonstrate that knowledge of precursors can provide an opportunity to avoid incidents and further safety performance. A ...
Developing Competitive Advantages in Political Risk Management for International Construction Enterprises
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: International construction projects invariably involve political risks. This has been a persistent and pernicious problem encountered by international contractors. Various sets of variables have been suggested in the ...
Identifying Effective Collaborative Behaviors in Building Information Modeling–Enabled Construction Projects
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Collaboration tightly relates to the effective management of construction projects. Especially for building information modeling (BIM)-enabled construction projects (BECPs), collaboration is the prerequisite for effective ...
