... path coefficient in the model on the intention to adopt PCC. Moreover, Covid-19 acted as a significant moderator in the relationship between perceived risk and cost with PU, as well as between cost and compatibility with adoption intention. The pandemic also moderated the effect of government support...

.... Despite a growing awareness of this problem, empirical evidence relating to the integration of WHS-related costs into tendering processes and their subsequent impact on pricing in tender prices remains limited. This study aims to investigate the extent to which Ghanaian contractors consider WHS items when...

...Abdulmohsen S. Almohsen; Naif M. Alsanabani; Abdullah M. Alsugair; Khalid S. Al-Gahtani Purpose The variance between the winning bid and the owner's estimated cost (OEC) is one of the construction management risks in the pre-tendering phase. The study aims to enhance the quality of the owner's...

...Simon Wyke; Søren Munch Lindhard; Jesper Kranker Larsen Purpose Cost and time are two of the primary benchmarks in which construction projects are measured. A variety of factors, however, affect cost and time on construction projects, as identified in previous research. This has led to a need...

...Samin Mahdavian; Ming Lu; Estacio Pereira Purpose Previous research regarding shaping factors and major causes behind accidents in the construction field is reviewed. In particular, a hypothetical model is established to correlate activity time, cost and safety in the context of construction...

... The methods consist of a literature review, expert interviews, a questionnaire survey and a rework risk function. The expert interviews and questionnaire survey were administered to experts in the entire process of PC from the dimensions of rework frequency, rework cost and rework time. Descriptive...

... embodied energy and emissions among other criteria they use in selecting materials during the design development phase of a building. The aim of this study is to develop a model to integrate the embodied energy, embodied emissions, and cost of the alternative structure and envelope systems of a building...

...ROGER FLANAGAN; LAURENCE MARSH Information technology (IT) has been widely applied across many economic sectors in order to increase competitiveness and reduce costs. This paper identifies that uptake of IT within construction is low. It is argued that significant barriers preventing construction...

... Work Package Methodology (WPM). The proposed WPM provides the means to periodically update project cost and time performance by restricting EVA calculations to individual work packages. These are then subjected to a logical time analysis to determine the predicted project cost and time to completion...

...H. LI; P.E.D. LOVE; D.S. DREW Delays are an endemic feature of the construction industry. Typically, when a delay occurs in a project, the project manager often expedites progress through activity‐crashing with respect to available float and time‐cost relationships. An accelerated schedule is thus...
