Abstract:
Bounded rationality has an important impact on owners decision-making of risk-sharing in the project. Based on the hypothesis of bounded rationality, the paper established a risk-sharing game model concerning owners reference dependency and loss aversion, as well as conducted the quantitative analysis. The finding shows that comparing with the hypothesis of rationality, if taking the ex-post transaction cost as reference, when owner considers that the cost of risk management is smaller, the bounded rationality would make the owner prefer the proper risk-sharing; when owner considers that the c

Approach to risk management, knowing the potential risks in realizing the construction of dam construction on the side of the work owner in the East Java area. In constructing a dam, construction on the job owner can affect the project's success. A practical risk management approach is carried out to achieve schedule, cost, quality, and service. This research aims to identify risks and provide a priority order of risks for the owner of the dam construction project in East Java that are most likely to occur to minimize the consequences arising from these risks. The identified risks will then be

Difficulties of engineering supervision are mainly in the complex beneficial relationship among the owner, supervision and contractor. Owners lack of knowledge on the need of supervision and uneven quality of supervision personnel bring about disjunction in the stage of decision making, design and construction during the project operating process. The measures can be used to introduce a new mechanism to eliminate the economic dependence between the supervision unit and the owner, enhance the construction of laws and regulations in supervision, improve the three main competitive consciousnesses

The credit of contractors in the construction market directly affects the cooperative intentions of owners. Although previous scholars have attempted to use credit to select appropriate contractors, they have rarely considered the trust relationship between decision-making and former owners. This work introduces and verifies a credit network recommendation model based on a collaborative filtering algorithm. The contractor’s credit established based on this model serves as a viable method for owners to select efficient contractors. The application of the model includes relevant information coll

Abstract Construction is an industry with a high possibility of risk. The construction industry accounts for the highest number of work accidents globally, with more than 60,000 fatal accidents per year. A construction safety culture through mature safety leadership can be the fundamental factor to improve safety performance. Safety leadership is the process of interaction between leaders and followers to achieve organizational safety goals. In many cases of work accidents in construction projects in Indonesia, the leadership of the project owner is rarely discussed. It is more often determine

Purpose – Transaction costs arise from economic exchange rather than production activities. However, the term “transaction cost” is not consistently defined in the construction industry because the concept of transaction cost is not universally accepted by all stakeholders in construction projects. As a result, empirical studies are few and conflicting because accessing data on transaction costs is problematic, and the interpretation of the data is difficult.

First, the information systems in construction organizations are designed to support day-to-day construction operations. The data stored in these systems are often non-validated, nonintegrated and are available in a format that makes it difficult for decision makers to use in order to make timely decisions.

The purpose of this qualitative multiple case study was to explore strategies small construction business owners use to retain their valuable employees.

Traditional application of these materials has been on-site following the erection of structural steel. Their mechanical durability, exposure to weather and in-flexibility have been a major concern for construction managers and architects. Shop application of epoxy intumescent fireproofing has been an established construction practice in the petrochemical industry for over 20 years and is making significant in-roads on commercial projects in Europe.

Abstract:
Reviews new regulations circa 1988 for underground storage tank owners and operators to assume greater responsibility for leak detection, closure reporting, and inventory management. Tank installations will be under more strict design, construction, and compatibility standards.

Abstract:
The DoD operates significant and strategically important installations in the Arctic and Subarctic domain. Geopolitical, economic, and climatic changes require an upgraded ability to rapidly deploy and sustain forces into Arctic and Subarctic regions. Relevant engineering criteria and guidance to support these efforts are the Unified Facility Criteria 3-130–Arctic and Subarctic Construction (UFC 3-130) documents, originally a seven-volume series. The series has been ‘inactive’, indicating the specifications are not current and potentially technically noncompliant. Therefore, designers may reso

The case study shares how adaptations to their implementation strategy were made to overcome challenges of sandy, loose soil in remote communities, which made traditional pit toilets vulnerable to collapse and issues with installation of new improved models, with reports of toilets sinking after only a few days.

Abstract:
Improving public transport infrastructure changes local market conditions. In this paper, I examine the impact of the construction and operation of "Metrobus", Mexico City's Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system on consumer prices in chain stores, street vendors, and small family-owned (mom and pop) stores. I do so through a panel event study design. I consider the construction and operation of BRT as two different phenomena; while the former is associated to street closures, the latter reduces transportation costs. I show that only prices in mom and pop stores respond to changes in local market cond

Full text
Abstract:
Route selection for onshore pipelines has become progressively more complex over the past several decades due to ongoing land development and expansion of public and private infrastructure, coupled with increased population. During the same period, protection of the environment and avoidance of negative impact to sensitive cultural features have become paramount objectives for all cross-country pipeline projects. With these issues, regulatory and permitting requirements have become more challenging, and compliance has become more arduous. Recognizing these challenges, the Pipeline Research Cou

Abstract:
Many factors affect pavement compaction quality, which can vary. Such variability may result in an additional number of passes required, extended working hours, higher energy consumption, and negative environmental impacts. The use of Intelligent Compaction (IC) technology during construction can improve the quality and longevity of pavement structures while reducing risk for contractors and project owners alike. This study develops guidelines for the implementation of IC in the compaction of pavement layers as well as performing a preliminary life-cycle cost analysis (LCCA) of IC technology c

Abstract:
The available literature includes numerous publications describing approaches, methods, and recommendations, for identifying, characterizing, and mitigating geohazards, as well and case histories of pipelines affected by geohazards and how their effects were mitigated. However, these publications are not comprehensive; separately provide information for identification, characterization, and mitigation; do not include all geohazards affecting pipelines; or may not have been developed specifically for pipelines. PRCI identified this gap and commissioned the development of a guidance document to

Abstract:
The Mill Springs Mill is found in south-central Kentucky, within Wayne County, a county bordering Tennessee. The mill, spring pools, granary, and recreation area are owned by the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). The site has run as a grist mill ever since its construction in the 1800s but has also been given other purposes, such as a roadside park starting in 1949 until the late 1970s and then a USACE recreation area. The mill is listed on the NRHP, while the grounds are part of the Mill Springs Battlefield which is on the NRHP and also a National Historic Landmark. This manuscript provides
