In a real construction project, the duration and cost of each activity could change
dynamically as a result of many uncertain variables, such as weather, resource availability …

Purpose The built-transfer and operate (BOT) toll model has been a common approach for
highway construction in India. Due to large amount of investment, many stakeholders and …

Uncertainties should be considered in any time–cost trade‐off problems when minimizing
project cost and duration, which leads to the so‐called stochastic time–cost trade‐off …

The refurbishment market has grown greatly in the last decade. Relevant projects are
becoming increasingly more demanding in the construction industry due to the emphasis on …

Crane operation training using virtual crane simulators has been introduced in the last
decade. It can reduce the costs associated with renting actual cranes and enables operator …
