Early Cost Estimating for Road Construction Projects Using Multiple Regression Techniques
The objective of this study is to develop early cost estimating models for road construction projects using multiple regression techniques, based on 131 sets of data collected in the West Bank in Palestine. As the cost estimates are required at early stages of a project, considerations were given to the fact that the input data for the required regression model could be easily extracted from sk...
متن کاملCost Estimating Model for Sustainable Rehabilitation of Road Projects
There are about 3,000,000 miles and 50,000 miles of paved roads and highways in the US, respectively. Many of these roads and highways have approached the end of their design life and are considered to be in poor conditions. To upgrade these valuable infrastructure assets in a sustainable manner, state and federal governments have suggested the use of the rubberized asphalt technology. The use ...
متن کاملAnalysis of Cost Overrun in Highway Construction Projects Using Multiple Regression and Artificial Neural Networks
Cost overruns are more common in infrastructure projects especially, more common in road construction activities. There existed a need to develop a probabilistic cost overrun analysis model in construction projects as a decision support tool for contractors before the bidding stage. The objective of this study is to identify the critical factors affecting cost overrun and obtain statistical mod...
متن کاملConceptual Cost Estimate of Road Construction Projects in Saudi Arabia
This study aims at developing regression models to predict the total construction cost of a road project in the early phases. The models were developed based on 52 sets of data collected in Saudi Arabia. The projects were implemented during 2011. The procedure used resulted in the formulation of 5 regression models; 2 of them include bid quantities of the major construction activities as indepe...
متن کاملEstimating Required Contingency Funds for Construction Projects Using Multple Linear Regression Thesis
Cost overruns are a critical problem for construction projects. The common practice for dealing with cost overruns is the assignment of an arbitrary flat percentage of the construction budget as a contingency fund. This research seeks to identify significant factors that may influence, or serve as indicators of, potential cost overruns. The study uses data on 243 construction projects over a fu...
