Risk Assessment and Allocation in Highway Construction Projects in the UAE
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Highway construction projects carry substantial risks. This paper highlights the risks associated with highway construction projects in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Thirty-three risks are identified through detailed ...
Float Consumption Impact on Cost and Schedule in the Construction Industry
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Quantifying and minimizing the risks associated with delays in the construction industry are the main challenges for all parties involved. Float loss impact in noncritical activities is one of the complicated delays to ...
Cost Optimization Model for the Multiresource Leveling Problem with Allowed Activity Splitting
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Resource leveling aims at minimizing the resource usage fluctuations, which is accomplished by moving noncritical activities within their float. The project duration is fixed and is not affected by the leveling. Most of ...
Multicriterion Decision-Support Model for Selecting the Appropriate Delivery Method in Sustainable Construction Projects
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Selecting the appropriate delivery method is of paramount importance, especially in sustainable construction projects that have unique characteristics that are different from their traditional counterparts. A new ...
Design–Construction Interface Problems in Sustainable Construction Projects
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The unique demands of sustainable construction projects, necessitating distinct management techniques, specialized materials, and novel building practices, present challenges in efficiently navigating project scope, time, ...
Time–Cost Optimization Model Considering Float-Consumption Impact
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The main objectives of construction projects are completing the project on time and within budget. Typically, there is a trade-off between time and cost. Time loss is costly and time savings can provide benefits to all the ...
