Influence and Countermeasures of Construction Project Site Construction Management on Civil Engineering Cost

A Study Identifying Causes of Construction Waste Production and Applying Safety Management on Construction Site

Background and purpose: In a recent century, the amount of construction waste has increased significantly. Although the building industry has a considerable role in the development of a society, it is regarded as an environmentally destructive. Source reduction is the highest goal in the waste management hierarchy and is in priority. It also has economic benefits by reducing costs associated wi...

Sensing methods in civil engineering for an efficient construction management

Sensing methods including Non-destructive testing and monitoring techniques are fundamental tools for performing an efficient condition management system for structures in service. They can on one hand support regular visual inspections and help on the other side to assess the actual condition and performance of a building. These methods provide reliable data for the stakeholders to estimate th...

BIM functions for optimized construction management in civil engineering

Purpose The aim of this study is to suggest configuration methodologies of active building information model (BIM) functions that enable to practically control limitations by optimizing schedule overlapping linked to its space models after analyzing workspace conflict analysis for a bridge model. This study also suggests development methodologies of active BIM-functions, linking an optimized me...

Agile Construction Project Management

Project management in the information systems industry has had a poor record of delivering value and has consequently seized upon the recent evolutional of agile project management. What is meant by agile project management, from whence it originated and whether it has further applicability are not widely understood. The construction industry also has a less than perfect project management reco...
