Assessment of Life Cycle Risks of Deconstruction in Urban Regeneration Projects
(ASCE, 10/1/2021)Deconstruction is the eco-friendly alternative to demolition. It can help reduce the waste stream from urban regeneration projects (URPs) to landfills. The literature, however, does not provide a sufficient theoretical ... -
Time, Cost, and Energy Consumption Analysis on Construction Optimization in High-Rise Buildings
(ASCE, 10/1/2021)The multiobjective optimization problems in project management have always been the issues on which project managers focus. Currently, few investigators consider the multiobjective optimization model suitable for high-rise ... -
Risk-Based Approach to Predict the Cost Performance of Modularization in Construction Projects
(ASCE, 10/1/2021)The lack of proper management of the unique modular risks hinders the construction industry from maximizing the potential benefits associated with the use of modularization. Capturing the full cost benefits of modularized ... -
Integrating Hoisting Efficiency into Construction Site Layout Plan Model for Prefabricated Construction
(ASCE, 10/1/2021)Construction site layout plans (CSLP) are vitally significant to prefabricated construction project management; in particular, abundant hoisting operations reinforce the importance of the location of tower cranes and precast ... -
Optimizing Heavy Lift Plans for Industrial Construction Sites Using Dijkstra’s Algorithm
(ASCE, 11/1/2021)Planning lift activities of mobile cranes for a modular project can raise productivity and improve safety. An optimized lift plan is essential for multiple lifts due to high rental cost of heavy lift cranes. However, ... -
Fuzzy Evaluation of the Factors Contributing to the Success of External Stakeholder Management in Construction
(ASCE, 11/1/2021)The study focuses on evaluating the factors contributing to the success of external stakeholder management (SM) at the project planning stage from the perspective of developing countries. Questionnaire survey data was ... -
Large-Scale Visual Data–Driven Probabilistic Risk Assessment of Utility Poles Regarding the Vulnerability of Power Distribution Infrastructure Systems
(ASCE, 10/1/2021)Inspecting and assessing existing utility poles has become increasingly important for reducing the vulnerability of power distribution infrastructure systems in disaster situations, which can enhance community resilience. ... -
Project Validation: A Set-Based and Concurrent Design Approach to Inform Owner’s Authorization Decision on Complex Projects
(ASCE, 10/1/2021)Strictly speaking, there is no way to have certainty of the outcomes or the value of decisions made early in a project. However, early decisions set the path to cost and schedule performance and influence life cycle costs. ... -
Selecting the Most Appropriate Project Manager to Improve the Performance of the Occupational Groups in Road Construction Projects in Warm Regions
(ASCE, 10/1/2021)This research proposes a framework to determine the most appropriate project manager (PM) to enhance the performance of occupational groups (POGs) in large, medium, and small road construction projects in warm regions. The ... -
Employee Career Outlook and Turnover: Unleashing the Roles of Career Adaptability and Career Satisfaction in International Construction Projects
(ASCE, 11/1/2021)Retaining employees is a challenge in the construction industry. The purpose of this study is to understand how employees’ career outlook affects their turnover intention in the construction industry as it can have a ... -
Integrative Collaboration in Fragmented Project Organizations: Network Perspective
(ASCE, 10/1/2021)Architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) project teams have a segmented organizational structure with subgroups, for example, designer, contractor, and owner. AEC projects are challenging to collaborate because ... -
Blockchain Technology for Governmental Supervision of Construction Work: Learning from Digital Currency Electronic Payment Systems
(ASCE, 10/1/2021)Blockchain technology has been explored for governmental supervision of construction work (GSCW) due to its merits of traceability, immutability, and transparency. However, its decentralized nature is seemingly incompatible ... -
Leadership Diversity and Its Influence on Equality Initiatives and Performance: Insights for Construction Management
(ASCE, 10/1/2021)Gender-diverse leadership shapes the design and delivery of policies, programs, and practices implemented to address diversity management. Drawing on stakeholder theory, this paper proposes and tests the positive impacts ... -
Practical Assessment of Potential Predictors of Serious Injuries and Fatalities in Construction
(ASCE, 10/1/2021)Serious injuries and fatalities (SIF) continue to be an enigmatic problem in the construction industry. Researchers have begun to explore new ways of preventing these incidents by developing and testing leading indicators, ... -
Digitalization Index: Developing a Model for Assessing the Degree of Digitalization of Construction Projects
(ASCE, 10/1/2021)The construction industry is one of the least digitally advanced industries. Although the industry is project-based, a project-level assessment of digitalization is lacking. The aim of this paper is to develop a digitalization ... -
Factors Influencing Fire Safety on Building Construction Sites: A Fire Officer’s Perspective
