Graphical-Based Productivity Transient Investigation Using DISCO
Construction operations involve complex resource interactions and are typically performed in the field with exogenous factors such as inclement weather conditions and equipment breakdowns....

A PC-Based Stochastic Project Scheduling and Costing Module
Project delays and cost overruns are very common in construction industry. This may be back-traced significantly to non or ill treatment of uncertainties that overwhelm construction projects....

SCHEREC: SCHedule RECovery System
Creating a revised plan requires experience and significant time. To lessen the effort involved, a knowledge-based system named SCHEREC (SCHedule RECovery) was developed which suggests...

An Integrated Approach To Repetitive Construction Planning
Repetitive construction projects are unsuited for the use of the Critical Path Method (CPM) for their scheduling. Statistical simulation techniques offer a scheduling alternative, but...

Managing Uncertainty in Project Planning and Execution: Introduction and Overview
This paper provides an introduction and overview of topics that are relevant to project design and management under conditions of uncertainty, with an emphasis on civil engineering projects....

Quantification of Cost Uncertainties Using Neural Network Technique
This paper describes the development of a neural network system for forecasting cost escalation in construction. The input of the neural network system consists of factors that have an...

Interpretive and Modelling Problems of Risk and Uncertainty in Bidding Techniques
This paper considers the implementation of policy, strategic and tactical bidding and the processes of devolution of the risk and uncertainty in a corporate management context....

Range Estimating -- User-Friendly Risk Analysis
This paper introduces the reader to Range Estimating - a user-friendly decision technology for project cost risk analysis. Although developed with the non-statistician in mind, Range Estimating...

Circle Integration
Based on the results of proof-of-concept experiments, we propose that an integrated suite of software tools can support both automation and integration of several components of AEC design...

Startplan: Producing Schedule Templates Using IRMA
The Information Reference Model for AEC (IRMA) is a generic information modeling standard to support computer-integrated construction (CIC). Although IRMA is still in a conceptual stage,...

Functional Analysis of the Envelope Design Process for Integrated Building Design
Building envelope failures account for a great portion of building failures. The number of envelope deficiencies would be reduced if the design process was integrated. Integration would...
