Identifying Growth Patterns of the High-Tech Manufacturing Industry across the Seoul Metropolitan Area Using Latent Class Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Latent class analysis (LCA) is a well-established research method in social science for explaining observed correlations or variance by identifying latent classes, but it has rarely been applied in urban studies. This paper ...
Flexible Work Breakdown Structure for Integrated Cost and Schedule Control
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Integration of cost and schedule control systems has been an issue of great concern for researchers and practitioners in the construction industry. Nevertheless, the real-world implementation of this promising concept has ...
Knowledge-Based Standard Progress Measurement for Integrated Cost and Schedule Performance Control
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Though the progress of construction projects is most often used as a critical index for effective project management, the method, structure, data, and accuracy of detailed progress measurement may vary depending on specific ...
Predicting Thermal Stress Restrained Specimen Test Fracture Temperatures Using the Dissipated Pseudo Strain Energy Criterion
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Thermal cracking is the predominant failure mode for asphalt pavements constructed in regions with severe air temperature drops or significant daily temperature variations. The thermal stress restrained specimen test (TSRST) ...
Planning for Computer Integrated Construction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Computer integrated construction (CIC) has recently evolved to maximize the integrated utilization of information systems throughout the project's entire life cycle and across different business functions. CIC is a broad ...
DIC Technique to Investigate Crack Propagation in Grid-Reinforced Asphalt Specimens
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Estimating Seismic Base Shears of Tall Wall‐Frame Buildings
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An approximate method for determining the seismic base shear of high‐rise building structures on the basis of the preliminary design information is presented. The method is based on the generalized representation of the ...
Assessment of Translational-Torsional Coupling in Asymmetric Uniform Wall-Frame Structures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A method to predict the degree of translational-torsional coupling of mixed-bent-type multistory building structures subject to dynamic loading is presented. The method is based on the treatment of nonproportionate structures ...
Informatization Index for the Construction Industry
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: It is normally recognized that information systems (IS) in the construction industry have not been sufficiently used in the era of information. However, so far no serious comprehensive effort has been made to measure the ...
Modified Harmony Search Algorithm and Neural Networks for Concrete Mix Proportion Design
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study proposes a new methodology with harmony search (HS) algorithm and neural networks (NNs) for concrete mix proportioning. The basic procedure for the methodology consists of four steps: (1) constructing a database ...
