Activity-Based Data Fusion for the Automated Progress Tracking of Construction Projects
(University of Waterloo, 2012-03-09)In recent years, many researchers have investigated automated progress tracking for construction projects. These efforts range from 2D photo-feature extraction to 3D laser scanners and radio frequency identification (RFID) ... -
Comprehensive CP Optimization for Dynamic Scheduling in Construction
(University of Waterloo, 2018-05-11)Delays and cost overruns are common facts in construction projects due to its increasing complexity, the day-to-day dynamic changes, the stricter execution constraints, and the general lack of efficient scheduling tools ... -
Construction Management Project Delivery Method: A Case Study of the Centre Block Rehabilitation Project
(University of Waterloo, 2021-05-19)Buildings are no longer solely designed and the building of them overseen by architects during their construction. In a slow evolution over decades, the overall building process has transformed into a collaborative design ... -
Data Fusion for Materials Location Estimation in Construction
(University of Waterloo, 2010-04-29)Effective automated tracking and locating of the thousands of materials on construction sites improves material distribution and project performance and thus has a significant positive impact on construction productivity. ... -
Decision Support System for Value-Based Evaluation and Conditional Approval of Construction Submittals
(University of Waterloo, 2010-07-15)To ensure compliance with specifications during construction, a formal review process, called the submittals process is typically implemented, whereby the contractor is required to submit proposals for materials, equipment, ... -
Integrated Decision Support System for Infrastructure Privatization under Uncertainty using Conflict Resolution
(University of Waterloo, 2007-04-03)Infrastructure privatization decisions have an enormous financial and social impact on all stakeholders, including the public sector, the private sector, and the general public. Appropriate privatization decisions, however, ... -
Interface Management for Complex Capital Projects
(University of Waterloo, 2014-05-21)In recent years, Interface Management (IM) practices have been emerging to address the challenges of managing complex capital projects. These challenges include the added complexity and scale of these projects, globalization, ... -
Modeling the Impact of Automated Materials Locating and Tracking Technology on the Construction Supply Network
(University of Waterloo, 2009-08-24)Ineffective materials and equipment management continues to be a leading cause of poor performance on construction projects today. Many of the problems arise as a result of the inability to convey information pertaining ...
