(ASCE, 3/1/2021)Improvements to building energy efficiency are critical to a more sustainable future. In this paper, an analytic hierarchy process method was applied to systematically highlight how experts prioritize various factors and ... -
Data-Driven Fire Safety Management at Building Construction Sites: Leveraging CNN
(ASCE, 3/1/2021)Fire safety management on site is important during the implementation of construction projects. However, many factors have caused fires at construction sites, where workers are in close proximity and large amounts of ... -
Gender and Engineering Identity among Upper-Division Undergraduate Students
(ASCE, 3/1/2021)The construction industry’s long-term health depends upon continued efforts to understand historically excluded students’ attrition from engineering programs. For women, lack of identification with engineering may motivate ... -
Assessing the Impact of Transportation Diversity on Postdisaster Intraurban Mobility
(ASCE, 1/1/2021)Transportation infrastructure enables mobility in urban communities and impacts the functionality of other infrastructure and services. Natural hazards can cause failures in a transportation system, which can affect mobility ... -
Extracting Domain Knowledge Elements of Construction Safety Management: Rule-Based Approach Using Chinese Natural Language Processing
(ASCE, 3/1/2021)The literature and practices of construction safety management have highlighted the importance of domain knowledge. Effectively extracting the domain knowledge elements (DKEs) of construction safety management remains a ... -
Postdisaster Labor-Demand Surge in the US Highways, Roads, and Bridges Construction Sector
(ASCE, 1/1/2021)The swift and cost-efficient postdisaster reconstruction of highways, roads, and bridges is a necessary component of resilient transportation infrastructure systems. However, the US construction industry often reports ... -
Project Assessment Tools Evaluation and Selection Using the Hierarchical Decision Modeling: Case of State Departments of Transportation in the United States
(ASCE, 1/1/2021)A considerable amount of research has been conducted on the performance of project delivery methods and applications in project development within the transportation industry. However, decision makers are still seeking a ... -
Risk Sharing Strategies for IPD Projects: Interactional Analysis of Participants’ Decision-Making
(ASCE, 1/1/2021)In the Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) approach, partner selection, contract signing as well as the signing of participants’ task scope, and the setting of incentive plans usually take place before the design of a project ... -
Quantitative Assessment of Proximity Risks Associated with Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in Construction
(ASCE, 1/1/2021)While unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are extensively used for data collection in the construction industry, currently, no comprehensive quantitative method measures the indirect risks workers face from flying UAVs on ... -
Verification and Validation Framework for Purdue Index for Construction
(ASCE, 1/1/2021)The Purdue index for construction (Pi-C) was previously developed to facilitate and promote data-driven decision-making. Pi-C is an analytical platform that allows stakeholders and decision makers to measure the current ... -
Three Pathways to Highly Energy Efficient Buildings: Assessing Combinations of Teaming and Technology
(ASCE, 3/1/2021)Highly energy efficient (HEE) buildings require a whole-system approach to building design. Scholars have suggested many tools, techniques, and processes to address the cross-disciplinary complexities of such an approach, ... -
Stakeholder-Associated Life Cycle Risks in Construction Supply Chain
(ASCE, 1/1/2021)Numerous inherent risks impose a systematic risk identification approach to achieve supply chain performance goals in construction projects. This paper investigates supply chain risks in construction projects with respect ... -
Process Mapping of Stakeholders in Transportation Safety Management
(ASCE, 1/1/2021)The operational reality that dominates organizations can inhibit their ability to document recurring work processes, which is instrumental in defining work responsibilities, incorporating quality assurance, evaluating lead ... -
Online Public Opinion Analysis on Infrastructure Megaprojects: Toward an Analytical Framework
(ASCE, 1/1/2021)The development of an infrastructure megaproject is closely related to society and the public community. It is necessary to pay enough attention to public opinions that generally have a significant impact on megainfrastructure’s ... -
Data-Driven Machine Learning Approach to Integrate Field Submittals in Project Scheduling
(ASCE, 1/1/2021)Construction projects are data-rich environments. However, those data are usually captured for site-specific reasons, e.g., the filing and approval of inspection requests, with little regard to how they can be leveraged ... -
