Photogrammetric Point Cloud Segmentation and Object Information Extraction for Creating Virtual Environments and Simulations
(ASCE, 2020)Photogrammetric techniques have dramatically improved over the last few years, enabling the creation of visually compelling three-dimensional (3D) meshes using unmanned aerial vehicle imagery. These high-quality 3D meshes ... -
Relationship between Internationalization and Financial Performance: Evidence from ENR-Listed Chinese Firms
(ASCE, 2020)Since the financial crisis in 2008, the international construction market has shown a relatively weak state of development. Along with China’s “Belt and Road Initiative,” an increasing number of Chinese construction firms ... -
Novel Approach to Satisfying Stakeholders in Megaprojects: Balancing Mutual Values
(ASCE, 2020)Stakeholder satisfaction in megaprojects has always been a critical concern in research and practice because of the dynamism, complexity, and uncertainty of the various relationships between the project and the stakeholder ... -
Business Failure Prediction of Construction Contractors Using a LSTM RNN with Accounting, Construction Market, and Macroeconomic Variables
(ASCE, 2020)In the construction industry, predicting business failure and providing early warnings are critical challenges in the prevention of business failure chain reactions. Most relevant studies have developed models that predicted ... -
Estimating a Risk-Integrated Schedule Delay for an Office Building Renovation Project by Considering the Project’s Attributes
(ASCE, 2020)Despite frequent reports of work delays in renovation projects due to inherent characteristics, such as difficulties in diagnosing the status of existing buildings, studies addressing this issue are lacking. Therefore, ... -
Gender in the Construction Industry: Literature Review and Comparative Survey of Men’s and Women’s Perceptions in UK Construction Consultancies
(ASCE, 2020)For more than two decades, construction industry leaders have made attempts to attract more women into professional roles to ease skills shortages and diversify the workforce. However, the number of women working in the ... -
Multiobjective Optimization Model for Emergency Evacuation Planning in Geographical Locations with Vulnerable Population Groups
(ASCE, 2020)A large-scale emergency evacuation due to an approaching natural disaster requires local and state administrations to make important decisions regarding evacuation routes, emergency shelters, and evacuation time periods, ... -
Behavioral Perspective on BIM Postadoption in Construction Organizations
(ASCE, 2020)Due to inadequate use of building information modeling (BIM) at the individual level, many construction organizations have failed to realize the full benefits of BIM use, even in the postadoption stage. In this paper, BIM ... -
Correlations between Construction Firm Value and Top Management Characteristics
(ASCE, 2020)A company’s key decision-making and management strategies are developed by the top management team (TMT), whose demographic characteristics may have direct and indirect influences on firm performance. This study analyzes ... -
Flexible 3D Model Partitioning System for nD-Based BIM Implementation of Alignment-Based Civil Infrastructure
(ASCE, 2020)Three-dimensional (3D) building information modeling (BIM) models of alignment-based civil infrastructures such as roads, railways, and tunnels are built as an integrated surface model for each planned linear segment. In ... -
Interplay of Competition and Cooperation in Wind Farm Interorganizational Projects: Relational Approach
(ASCE, 2020)This paper answers the call for research addressing the structural and relational explanations of interorganizational projects (IOPs). It aims to contribute to extant knowledge by highlighting the relational structure of ... -
Critical Success Factors for Ensuring Bankable Completion Risk in PFI/PPP Megaprojects
(ASCE, 2020)This study investigates project financiers' perspectives on the bankability of completion risk in private finance initiative and public–private partnership (PFI/PPP) megaprojects. Using a mixed methodology approach, focus ... -
Quantifying FEED Maturity and Its Impact on Project Performance in Large Industrial Projects
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)Assessing the maturity of front-end engineering design (FEED) for large industrial projects is a critical task with significant influence on overall project success. The project owner expects to be able to make informed ... -
Integrated Risk Management Framework for Tolerance-Based Mitigation Strategy Decision Support in Modular Construction Projects
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)Managing excessive geometric variability risks in modular components and assemblies represents a major challenge in construction projects because of incompatibility between process capabilities and desired tolerance levels. ... -
Hazard-Based Duration Models for Predicting Actual Duration of Highway Projects Using Nonparametric and Parametric Survival Analysis
