(ASCE, 2022/05/27)In construction and renovation works, the application of innovative materials, products, and methods (further referred to as IMMs) within green buildings (GBs) is an important source of release of contaminants. However, ... -
Slab Track Optimization Using Metamodels to Improve Rail Construction Sustainability
(ASCE, 2022/04/28)Railways are an efficient transport mode, but building and maintaining railway tracks has a significant environmental impact in terms of CO2 emissions and use of raw materials. This is particularly true for slab tracks, ... -
Influence of Execution Speed on Displacements of Soil-Nailed Structures with Vertical Face in Urban Areas
(ASCE, 2022/04/22)This paper presents the study of the execution speed influence on displacements of soil-nailed structures with a vertical face in urban areas, intended as the basements of buildings. Fifteen structures in the Metropolitan ... -
Multiobjective Optimization Model for the Life Cycle Cost-Sustainability Trade-Off Problem of Building Upgrading Using a Generic Sustainability Assessment Tool
(ASCE, 2022/04/22)Because existing buildings occupy most of our built environment, there is an urgent need to upgrade them considering building sustainability criteria. Therefore, many optimization models were proposed to find the optimum ... -
Fall Prevention from Scaffolding Using Computer Vision and IoT-Based Monitoring
(ASCE, 2022/04/25)Fall from height (FFH) is the most significant cause of occupational fatalities in the construction industry, accounting for approximately 54% of all accidents. Such fatalities have decreased considerably due to the use ... -
Mitigating Opportunistic Behaviors in Consulting Projects: Evidence from the Outsourced Architectural and Engineering Design
(ASCE, 2022-04-20)Although control strategies are widely used to mitigate opportunistic behaviors, their implementation in consulting projects with intangible outputs can be challenging. Whether or not control strategies are effective to ... -
Clique to Win: Impact of Cliques, Competition, and Resources on Team Performance
(ASCE, 2022-04-20)This study examines how prior relationships between construction industry project teams influence work outcomes. Drawing on social network literature, we theorize that factors like the frequency of partner interactions, ... -
Development of a Typology for Understanding Visual Management Concepts and Their Relationships
(ASCE, 2022-04-19)Visual management (VM) is a strategy for information management that aims to increase process transparency, one of the main principles of the lean production philosophy. It has been widely used in manufacturing, but the ... -
Safety Management Guidelines for Precast Concrete Production Plants Using Importance-Performance Analysis
(ASCE, 2022-04-18)In recent years, offsite construction has attracted increasing attention, which has led to the broader use of precast concrete (PC) construction methods. Accordingly, the need for safety management in PC production plants ... -
