Team Selection and Cost Deviation Sharing in IPD Systems for Emerging Markets: A Cooperative Game Theory Approach
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)Regardless of its ability to efficiently achieve the projects’ goals, integrated project delivery (IPD) is one of the project delivery systems (PDSs) that is seldom used in emerging markets due to its unfamiliarity in the ... -
Exploring the Interplay between Risk Management and Construction Risks: Implications for Project Performance through Structural Equation Modeling
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)Construction project risk is an uncertain event that can have a positive or negative impact on project objectives, with unmanaged risks being a major concern for many projects. Previous studies have addressed this issue, ... -
Contractual Justice as a Basis for Amending Contracts
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)Contractual obligations can be changed in a number of ways, including by lawmakers, judges, or contractors. Parallel to these different approaches, a general basis must be adopted. This basis will serve as the foundation ... -
Identification of Prevalent Unethical Practices in the Construction Industry and Their Control Measures
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)Unethical conduct by professionals is one of the primary reasons for cost overruns, delays, and the delivery of poor-quality construction projects. Although several studies have highlighted the adverse outcomes of unethical ... -
Empirical Model for Construction Disputes Using a Bespoke Model
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)This research addresses the inherent challenges of disputes in construction projects, emphasizing their costly nature in terms of time, money, and resources. Focused on the Singapore construction industry, the study ... -
Efficacy of Mediating Construction Disputes during Economic Recession: Case Study of Mediator Style
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)The potential of achieving the desired outcomes via mediation is less researched, particularly in public sector projects where construction as a market is somewhat volatile in many parts of the world. Moreover, multicriteria ... -
Best-Value Procurement in Transportation: Lessons Learned from Bid Protest Challenges
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)The best value (BV) procurement method, which incorporates nonprice factors in addition to price, has gained traction in the transportation sector, particularly for complex projects. However, effectively and objectively ... -
Evaluating the Resilience of Interdependent Infrastructure Systems with a Focus on Community Livability
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)Infrastructure systems play a critical role in creating a livable environment for human societies. Hence, enhancing the resilience of infrastructure systems against the adverse impacts of disasters has become a prominent ... -
Crushing Strength Characteristics of Artificial Fly Ash Sand in Comparison with Conventional Granular Materials
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)Sand is an essential material used in various construction activities across the globe, due to which there is a scarcity of natural river sand (NRS). Consequently, it is crucial to identify new sustainable alternative ... -
Hands-Free Crowdsensing of Accessibility Barriers in Sidewalk Infrastructure: A Brain–Computer Interface Approach
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)Crowdsourced human sensing provides a critical complement to urban physical sensing networks to detect city infrastructure disrepairs and inform strategized maintenance. However, motivating public participation remains ... -
A Comparative Study on Selecting the General Circulation Model for Pavement Design in China: A Case Study of Beijing
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)Climate change and extreme weather threaten the global infrastructure. This paper aims to estimate the future temperature rise impact on the asphalt pavement design, especially addressing the performance uncertainty from ... -
Exploring the Adoption of Construction Technologies in Infrastructure Projects: Bridging Perceptions of Experts with Real Project Data
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2025)Infrastructure projects have progressively adopted construction technologies, yet previous studies have not fully explored technology utilization by comparing the perceptions of experts with actual project data. This ... -
Mechanism of Asset Devaluation in the Planning Stage of Urban Rail Transit PPP Projects in China: A System Dynamics Approach
