A framework for assessing the safety performance of industrial projects using safety-related measures
DownloadFall 2017
Pereira, Estacio Siemann Santos
Although previous research has emphasized the use of safety-related measures to assess and control safety performance, many construction companies continue to rely on reactive indicators for safety control. The reluctance of industry to use safety-related measures for the proactive evaluation of...

An Integrated Framework for Balancing Contractor's Workload versus Capacity using System Dynamics
DownloadSpring 2023
Elnady, Ahmed Abdelrady Okasha Mohamed
Workload fluctuation is one of the major challenges facing contracting (project-based) organizations because of the rational decision-making model applied to manage it in current practice. The rational model balances the workload with the capacity required at the level of activity, ignoring the...

Cutting the pavement to install a small diameter utility network, such as flexible pipes, conduits or telecommunication lines, is a common practice in urban areas. The last 200 meters of installation is known particularly difficult to deliver, with obstacles both above and below ground to...

Fall 2009
Simulation has been used extensively for addressing probabilistic uncertainty in range estimating for construction projects. However, subjective and linguistically expressed information results in added non-probabilistic uncertainty in construction management. Fuzzy logic has been used...

Fall 2021
Wind energy is emerging as a primary source of renewable energy in Canada, attracting over $23 billion in investment. Steadily increasing, a total capacity of 31,640 MW of wind energy must be installed by 2040 to meet the requirements of the Paris Agreement on Climate, requiring the construction...

Development of quantitative methods for project scheduling and workface planning under time-dependent resource constraints
DownloadSpring 2016
Analytical decision support for project scheduling and workface planning under time-dependent resource constraints is limited in industrial-construction. Previous project scheduling research endeavors in the construction engineering and management domain focused on formulating...
