Construction is a complex activity, characterized by high levels of capital investment, relatively long delivery durations, multitudinous risks and uncertainties, as well as requiring the integration of multiple skills delivering a huge volume of tasks and processes.

Regardless of the growing number of studies on construction innovation management, there is still a lack of research that identify, compile, classify, and summarize the inn

The study aims to investigate whether institutional ownership influences tax avoidance behavior among the listed construction firms in Malaysia. Whilst tax avoidance is legal as the amount paid to the Government is reduced within the law, it is still a risky activity which can eventually increase the costs of the firms (Badertscher, Katz, & Rego, 2013). This is explained in the context of agency theory where firms may use debt for tax avoidance in terms of reducing the tax, but institutional ownerships tend to also incur costs by imposing control on firms to avoid tax.

<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> Approximately by the year 2030, 40% of population of a country will be urbanised. This indicates a tremendous opportunity in sector of constructing units for fulfilling Residential as well as commercial requirements. Construction activity takes place on land, it must be noted that land solely is not responsible. There are various regulations which affect the extent to which construction/land utilization can takes place. The two most significant factors which affects utilization of land are Zoning and Development Control regulation. Zoning will br

Purpose The article aims to further understanding of purchasing practices in post-outsourcing buyer–supplier relationships, and it provides a holistic approach and onceptualizations with which to balance the perspectives of purchasing as an intra-firm operational function and as a strategic activity embedded in relationship and network management. Design/methodology/approach The research is based on an inductive-oriented case study. The data comprised 61 thematic interviews conducted at 17 buyer companies (electricity distribution companies), 11 service supplier companies and six third-party o

Abstract:

The aim of this research is to provide a tool for assessing the impact of applying lean principles to the design process at construction consultancy firms. Through several interviews, a comprehensive model was built to simulate the design process, using data from a leading consultancy firm in Egypt. The model contains the main processes and activities that form different phases of the design process and depicts the interconnectivity of processes and activities needed to create a complete design package upon client request. The research describes how the five main lean principles are integrated

Abstract:

AbstractThis study investigates how the construction of technology transfer markets in China can affect local entrepreneurial activity. Using new firm registration data from the State Administration for Industry and Commerce of China, the analysis treated the establishment of national technology transfer centers (NTTCs) as a quasi‐natural experiment and employed a staggered difference‐in‐differences approach. The results indicate that the establishment of NTTCs has a positive impact on entrepreneurship. Robustness checks supported a causal interpretation of the results. The primary mechanisms

Abstract:

The adoption and integration of renewable energy technologies (RETs) into buildings is key to making the necessary transition to low-carbon and resilient built environments. However, such technologies have struggled to gain a firm foothold in countries within the sub-Saharan African (SSA) region. This is particularly the case in Nigeria, which suffers from severe energy poverty, despite its significant RE and conventional energy potential. In Nigeria, a significant proportion of the energy demand for offices is provided by self-powered off-grid fossil-fuel generators. The country is also one o

Abstract:

As an empirical investigation of firm support for circular economy regulation in the European Union (EU) context, this paper is the first to connect the research field on corporate political activity with the growing research field on the circular economy. The paper presents these two research streams, draws on theories such as the resource-based view, and employs a hierarchical regression framework to formulate and test six hypotheses on what drives firms to support circular economy regulation. We find that smaller firms show more support for circular economy regulation than larger firms do a

Abstract:

A recyclable photocatalytic film of TaON/Ni foam with ohmic junction is prepared by the electrophoretic deposition technology. The photocatalytic film of 60 mg TaON/Ni foam demonstrates excellent photocatalytic activity and recycling performance for the degradation of basic fuchsin from water. Around 80% of basic fuchsin (50 mL, 10 mg L−1) is removed over 60 mg TaON/Ni foam under irradiation of 72 W LED white light for 5 h. The photocatalytic activity of the film does not significantly decrease after three rounds of use. The active species for the photocatalytic degradation of basic fuchsin ar

Abstract:

Construction materials obtained from agricultural and industrial waste are be-coming increasingly attractive in construction due to their sustainability and minimal environmen-tal impact. To improve performance, it is necessary to protect materials from harmful environmen-tal influences. Basically, the task is to increase the fire and biostability of compositions and reduce their sorption activity. It is required to introduce additives into the mass or protect the material with special surface impregnations.

Abstract:

Project Management Maturity Models (PMMM) are considered practical tools to deal with poor Project Management (PM) performance, an issue that concerns academics and practitioners. However, the models that exist are something close to “one size fits all”. This means that those models might not be suitable for activity sectors with specific requirements, such as construction, in particular, the renovation and remodelling construction firms. The present research proposes a PMMM to assess the PM capabilities of Portuguese renovation and remodelling Project-Based Firms (PBF). To achieve this goal,

This paper aims to examine whether and to what extent overconfident CEOs affect Australian real estate investment trusts’ (A-REITs) property investment activities during their tenure as the CEO of A-REITs, covering the period 2000–2019. A-REITs’ property investment and disposal activities are separately modelled against CEOs shares in their companies (an indicator of CEO overconfidence), as well as other controlled variables. We found that around 68% of A-REIT CEOs are overconfident over the study period. However, our empirical results also indicated that CEO overconfidence did not have a prof
