Abstract:
Modern construction projects are delivered in complex, fast pace environments. Stakeholders are required to participate in dynamic project settings with resource constraints, information constraints, and time constraints. To overcome gaps in knowledge, to deliver decisions quickly, and to overcome human limits in cognitive ability, decision makers typically employ heuristics, or rules of thumb to arrive at relatively quick answers. Heuristics are cognitive shortcuts that an individual employs to arrive at quick decisions (Goodwin et al., 2004). These heuristics are used in a variety of ways, r

The concept of the Professional Construction Engineer has emerged and developed over the past decade in response to pressures for construction capacity within the Australian Industry.

The problem of delays in the construction industry is a global phenomenon and the construction industry in Brunei Darussalam is no exception.

Construction projects are frequently influenced by either success factors that help project parties reach their goal as planned, or delay factors that stifle or postpone project complet

Abstract:
Large construction projects involve numerous participants, many of whom do not participate for the entire duration of the project. Participants often come from very different cultural and linguistic backgrounds. In the case of many large projects, the levels of education of these participants also vary widely, from graduate professionals to labourers with only a basic education. For a project to be developed, executed and handed over to the owner efficiently, the activities and delivered outputs of the project participants need to be coordinated.
