Building information modeling (BIM) application in construction projects is considered beneficial for effective decision making throughout the project lifecycle, as it maximizes benefits without compromising practicality. The Malaysian industry also keen on adoption of BIM culture. However, various identified and unidentified barriers are hindering its practical implementation. In light this, t...

In a perfect world, changes will be confined to the planning stages. However, late changes often occur during construction, and frequently cause serious disruption to the project. The integration of project knowledge and experience at the design phase provides the best opportunity to improve overall project performance. This paper presents a knowledge-based system (KBS) for management of variat...

Construction materials usually constitute a major portion of the total cost in a building construction project. Despite the potential benefit of ICT, convincing construction organisations to embrace its use and implementation has proved a difficult task. This study seeks to identify the implementation of ICT for materials management processes in construction projects. The findings from the inte...

estimation of the conceptual costs in construction projects can be regarded as an important issue in feasibility studies. this estimation has a major impact on the success of construction projects. indeed, this estimation supports the required information that can be employed in cost management and budgeting of these projects. the purpose of this paper is to introduce an intelligent model to im...
