Mitigating Risks in African Construction Markets through the Interactive Behavior of Resources and Capabilities in Multinational Construction Companies and Entry Decisions
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2017)The presence of African-based construction companies in African markets is low compared with their foreign counterparts. Unlike local markets, overseas markets exhibit more types of risk. Perceptions of risk in overseas ... -
Improving Subjective Value in Construction Claim Negotiations: Role of Behavioral Primers
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)Even though most studies have merely focused on the relationship between behavioral primers and objective value, subjective value plays an important role in evaluating negotiation outcomes. This study aims to investigate ... -
Influence of Trust and Contract on Dispute Negotiation Behavioral Strategy in Construction Subcontracting
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)This paper examines the effects of trust and contract on the dispute negotiation behavioral strategy of general contractors and subcontractors in construction subcontracting, which is an underresearched area. This research ... -
Optimal Supply Vendor Selection Model for LNG Plant Projects Using Fuzzy-TOPSIS Theory
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2017)Interest in clean energy has led to increased international demand for liquefied natural gas (LNG), and the development of LNG plants as megaprojects is also expected to rise. In these megaprojects, the procurement phase ... -
Investigating the Relationship between Project Complexity and Success in Complex Construction Projects
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2017)Although widely recognized both in literature and among practitioners, project complexity may cause poor project success, with little empirical evidence supporting this contention. Therefore, this study analyzed, for the ... -
Perceiving Interactions on Construction Safety Behaviors: Workers’ Perspective
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)This paper presents a systematic approach that incorporates structural equation modeling (SEM) and exploratory factor analysis (EFA) to perceive and verify causal-relationships and interactions between enablers and goals ... -
Decision-Making Model for Selecting the Optimum Method of Delay Analysis in Construction Projects
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)In construction, delay claims resolution is at the center of apportioning liabilities between the claiming party and the defending party. This process generally consists of two phases of causation: (1) establishing ... -
Effective Communication Practices for Implementing ERP for a Large Transportation Agency
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)State transportation agencies have implemented enterprise resource planning (ERP) for real-time access to financial and human resource information across divisions and districts. In 2013, the Texas Department of Transportation ... -
Project Risk Distribution during the Construction Phase of Small Building Projects
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)Early identification and communication of risks throughout the construction phase allows project teams to manage and minimize cost increases and schedule delays while increasing customer satisfaction. A better understanding ... -
Nongeometric Building Information Needs Assessment for Facilities Management
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)Building information modeling (BIM) tools hold promise for owners in terms of collecting the information needed for facility operations. The introduction of BIM technology has increased the need for project teams to deliver ... -
Selection and Resource Allocation Model for Upgrading Fire Safety of Historic Buildings
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)Fire safety constitutes an important component of cultural heritage protection since fire constitutes a major hazard for historic buildings. In the past many examples have been reported of where fire caused significant ... -
Genetic Algorithm–Based Method for the Deadline Problem in Repetitive Construction Projects Considering Soft Logic
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)The discrete time-cost trade-off problem (DTCTP) is a multiobjective problem usually encountered in practical projects. Current optimization methods for this problem in repetitive construction projects often assume that ... -
Self-Organization and Sense-Making in Architect–Engineer Design Teams: Leveraging Health Care’s Approach to Managing Complex Adaptive Systems
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)Traditional management-led risk-mitigation and performance-improvement procedures tend to ignore the relationship dynamics of Architect–Engineer design teams, and instead focus on the credentials of the designers and the ... -

Construction Organizational-Level Information Management Framework
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)Comprehensive organizational-level information management (IM) performance assessment has the potential to improve IM performance in construction organizations. However, the organizational-level IM components and key ... -
Exploratory Framework for Application of Analytics in the Construction Industry
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)The complex dynamics inherent to the context of decision-making in the construction industry requires more rigorous application of analytics. However, effective frameworks to facilitate such data-driven decision-making are ... -
Impact of Business Portfolio Diversification on Construction Company Insolvency in Korea
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)This study aims to conduct an empirical analysis of the impact of diversification on construction company insolvency through a vector error correction model (VECM). The study focuses on a series of structural changes in ... -
Critical Factors Affecting Tacit-Knowledge Sharing within the Integrated Project Team
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)Sharing tacit knowledge is of great importance for an integrated project team to achieve success. However, research on the factors affecting tacit-knowledge sharing within an integrated project team has been insufficient ...
