Abstract:

In recent decades, the main problem of the construction business, which constantly attracts the attention of specialists, has been its financial component. Now that such concentration has given a noticeable positive result, another, much more complex set of issues that requires equally enhanced analytics comes to the fore – the organization of management. The article develops a methodological path (concept) that can effectively and quickly solve this key task for practice. It is proposed to form an independent block of management organization methods-construction management as a related branch of a well-known scientific and applied discipline that even has a name that does not require translation – project management. The general outline of practical tasks and tools for managing the construction business that ensure the achievement of a properly set economic and consumer goal is outlined.

Abstract:

The aim of this paper is first to describe the current achievements regarding digitalization technologies in the engineering and construction sector. The concrete technologies presented are the GIS standards as CityGLM and BIM technologies, and as the EUBIMTG initiative. These two technologies can be applied in a common framework building digital twin environments and platforms. These platforms create a huge capacity of gains for the constructions sector in all phases, and for all the actors, as constructions digitalization has a huge unexplored potential. Most of the participants in the value chain will gain from interventions in the engineering and construction (E&C) phases of design, and engineering, construction and operations. Project management (PM) was described as intervention, which creates potential for new business models to be implemented. Virtual modelling can further develop in the direction of virtualization and construction simulation, and contribute towards the successful digitalization of the E&C sector.

Abstract:

The management of large capital improvement construction programs involves the efforts of both internal staff and external service providers. An understanding of how construction programs are managed, either through internal or external staff, is essential in tracking future trends and determining improvements and best practices in the management process. To address this need a survey was developed by a focus group of industry professionals. The survey was distributed to the membership of a number of professional organizations that represented owners within the construction industry. The survey attempted to determine both the current status of managing a construction program throughout a broad range of demographic characteristics (including the definition of program management) and the hiring of an external program manager. The survey and subsequent analysis that focused on the management of a construction program examined the following key points: role of a program manager, internal capabilities, outsourcing, sourcing strategy, and management costs. The survey and subsequent analysis that focused on hiring an external program manager examined: program management fees, type of firms used in managing a construction program, factors considered when hiring a program manager, and organizational structure. The results of the survey have also been segregated by public and private organizations to denote any differences in the management of public and private construction programs. A key contribution of this research was determining the percentage of outsourcing within each phase of the construction process and the number of service providers considered in the selection process. Also, a multifaceted definition of program management was developed from the research for use in clarifying the concept of program management within construction.

Abstract:

The US Army Corps of Engineers, Galveston District, is executing the Sabine Pass to Galveston Bay Coastal Storm Risk Management (CSRM) project for Brazoria, Jefferson, and Orange Counties regions. The project is currently in the Pre-construction, Engineering, and Design phase. This report documents coastal storm water level (SWL) and wave hazards for the Freeport CSRM structures. Coastal SWL and wave loading and overtopping are quantified using high-fidelity hydrodynamic modeling and stochastic simulations. The CSTORM coupled water level and wave modeling system simulated 195 synthetic tropical storms on three relative sea level change scenarios for with- and without-project meshes. Annual exceedance probability (AEP) mean values were reported for the range of 0.2 to 0.001 for peak SWL and wave height (Hm0) along with associated confidence limits. Wave period and mean wave direction associated with Hm0 were also computed. A response-based stochastic simulation approach is applied to compute AEP values for overtopping for levees and overtopping, nappe geometry and combined hydrostatic and hydrodynamic fluid pressures for floodwalls. CSRM crest design elevations are defined based on overtopping rates corresponding to incipient damage. Survivability and resilience are evaluated. A system-wide hazard level assessment was conducted to establish final recommended system-wide elevations.

Abstract:

To deliver infrastructure that sustain our communities, economy, and environment, we must innovate, modernize, and even revolutionize our approach to infrastructure development. Change takes courage, but as one starts down the path of innovation, what was once novel becomes more familiar, more established. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) is walking this path with our partners through the Engineering With Nature (EWN) Initiative, integrating human engineering with natural systems. The International Guidelines on Natural and Nature-Based Features for Flood Risk Management are the next step toward revolutionary infrastructure development—a set of real-world guidelines to help familiarize us with what was once novel. USACE and collaborators around the world have been building, learning, and documenting the best practices for constructing Natural and Nature-Based Features (NNBF) for decades. The consolidation of these lessons into a single guidance document gives decision-makers and practitioners a much-needed resource to pursue, consider, and apply NNBF for flood risk management while expanding value through infrastructure. Relationships and partnerships are vital ingredients for innovation and progress. The NNBF Guidelines was achieved because of the strong relationships in the nature-based engineering community. The magnitude and diversity of contributors to the NNBF Guidelines have resulted in a robust resource that provides value beyond a single agency, sector, or nation. Similarly, the work of incorporating NNBF into projects will require us to strengthen our relationships across organizations, mandates, and missions to achieve resilient communities. I hope you are inspired by the collaborative achievement of the NNBF Guidelines and will draw from this resource to develop innovative solutions to current and future flood risk management challenges. There is a lot we can achieve together along the path of revolutionary infrastructure development.

Abstract:

The application of natural and nature‑based features (NNBF) has grown steadily over the past 20 years, supported by calls for innovation in flood risk management (FRM) and nature‑based solutions from many different perspectives and organizations. Technical advancements in support of NNBF are increasingly the subject of peer‑reviewed and other technical literature. A variety of guidance has been published by numerous organizations to inform program‑level action and technical practice for specific types of nature‑based solutions. This effort to develop international guidelines on the use of NNBF was motivated by the need for a comprehensive guide that draws directly on the growing body of knowledge and experience from around the world to inform the process of conceptualizing, planning, designing, engineering, constructing, and operating NNBF.
