Delays in a construction project can be regarded as a failure. This paper aims to investigate the causes of delay in high rise building projects in Pune city.The industry which is experiencing frequent and costly delays is the building and construction industry. However, a numbers of construction projects which had the delay problems are very significant. Construction project involves many unpredicted factors which results from many sources. These sources include the performance of contractors, resources availability, weather conditions and contract systems. However it occurs in every construc

Abstract:
Delays in high-rise construction projects pose a significant challenge globally, with about 75% of these projects experiencing setbacks, resulting in cost overruns of 15-30%. Approximately 40% of construction projects worldwide exceed their timelines, averaging a 20% delay. In India, around 68% of high-rise projects face delays of 6 to 12 months. This paper explores effective strategies to address these delays, highlighting key techniques such as the Critical Path Method (CPM) and Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT), which can reduce project durations by up to 25%.

Abstract:
The article explores a new phased evacuation algorithm for high-rise buildings and structures. The necessity of using this evacuation type is justified by reducing of the human flow density, which minimizes the people injury risks and the crowd formation during the movement process. This type of evacuation prevents the appearance of clusters in local narrowing places (the floor entrance), as well as on stairway. The calculation model is made in Pathfinder PC. The scheme of organizing a phased evacuation is based on the separation of the evacuating people flows and the prevention of their cross

A poorly coordinated performance among stakeholders in the finishing phase can impair the performance of a high-rise building project. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze construction failure factors (CFFs) to stakeholder coordinating performance (SCP) in the finishing phase of high-rise building projects and to uncover their underlying relationships. CFFs to SCP in construction projects, especially in the finishing phase of high-rise building projects, have not yet been discovered. The study identified 30 CFFs to the SCP and ranked them according to the perspective of the stakeholders, incl

The systematic collection and management of on-site information in high-rise building construction are important factors in construction management. Recently, wireless sensor network (WSN) technology has been utilized to manage the various tasks involved in high-rise construction efficiently and in a timely manner. However, because of the repeated installation of sensors and repeaters along with the construction progress, the existing WSN technology is ineffective when applied to the temperature management of concrete in structural work.

Abstract:
Most of the tall buildings that are built today have a straight and vertical shape, because vertical buildings are more stable and easily built than slanted ones. In the case of vertical building, bending moments in the base only exists from horizontal loads such as wind and seismic loads, but in slanted buildings there will also be bending moments from dead and live loads. In addition, transportation inside the building is also a challenge when it comes to slanted buildings. However, a new elevator system that ThyssenKrupp has developed will solve that problem.
