RISCivil Infrastructure Decision Making as a Chaotic Sociotechnical System: Role of Information Systems in Engaging Stakeholders and Democratizing Innovation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Web-Services Environment for Collaborative Management of Product Life-Cycle Costs
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: There is an increasing need for effective tools for managing life cycle costs (LCC) of civil products. This paper presents a web-based semantic system for managing products’ life cycle costs. The basic architecture of the ...
Domain Ontology for Construction Knowledge
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An ontology is a claim on/for knowledge that attempts to model what is known about a domain of discourse. A domain ontology does not aim to exhaustively list all concepts in a domain, but rather to build an abstract (yet ...
Framework for Managing Life-Cycle Cost of Smart Infrastructure Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Smart infrastructure systems life-cycle costing has not receive much attention from researchers, albeit its considerable potential and proven success. This paper presents a framework to manage the life-cycle cost of these ...
Synthesis of Decision-Making Research in Construction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Decision making has always been a major topic of research in the field of construction engineering and management. Recent trends (such as the push for sustainability, the increased desire for public engagement, and the ...
Role of Data Analytics in Infrastructure Asset Management: Overcoming Data Size and Quality Problems
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This study explores the performance regime of different classification algorithms as they are applied to the analysis of asphalt pavement deterioration data. The aim is to examine how different algorithms deal with the ...
Data Analytics in Asset Management: Cost-Effective Prediction of the Pavement Condition Index
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Understanding the deterioration of roads is an important part of road asset management. In this study, the long-term pavement performance (LTPP) data and machine learning algorithms were used to predict the deterioration ...
Using Machine Learning to Examine Impact of Type of Performance Indicator on Flexible Pavement Deterioration Modeling
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Limited research has been conducted on the application of data analytics to the prediction of the Pavement Condition Index (PCI) of asphalt roads. More importantly, studies comparing the prediction results of these algorithms ...
Lessons Learned in Designing Research Methodology in Field-Based Construction Research
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Research aiming at modeling construction knowledge often faces many problems because of the unique nature of each construction project and the lack of formal data-collection procedures within the industry. Therefore, ...
Model for Evaluating Bridge Construction Plans
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Effective planning has considerable influence on the successful completion of a bridge project, particularly with respect to minimizing effects on traffic flow, safety, and adjacent business activity. The optimization of ...
