Abstract: This paper presents the effectiveness of building information modeling (BIM) as an integrated learning tool in construction education. A BIM-based teaching approach was designed and used to teach a construction management ...

Abstract: Natural rainfall rate patterns are highly variable. Existing Hortonian infiltration models are not designed specifically to work with such rainfall rate patterns. Thus, for practical applications the models have to be ...

Abstract: Evaluating the pretreatment conditions and fouling behavior is a prerequisite to the effective implementation of the coagulation-ceramic membrane hybrid processes for surface water treatment. Little is known about the ...

Abstract: In recent decades, there has been a growing interest in using constructed wetlands (CWs) for the treatment of contaminated waters. There has been an increase in the use of wetland technology because of its low greenhouse ...

Abstract: The resource-constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP) has received the attention of many researchers because its general model can be used in a wide variety of construction planning and scheduling applications. The ...

Abstract: An issue has arisen with regard to which of the schedule generation schemes will perform better for an arbitrary instance of the resource-constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP), which is one of the most challenging ...
