Construction projects require a significant amount of money and other resources in order to carry them out in an effective way. Cost control is a critical step in ensuring the success of the project and increasing its value. Nowadays, the large-scale application of BIM technology has ushered a technical change in the development of construction projects, which has greatly increased the level and efficiency of project management. Due to BIM technology, the construction engineering quality is significantly improved which really helped in obtaining the social and economic benefits. However, the BIM technology in our country is started relatively late and the technical force is not strong enough; then correspondingly, we must deal with many problems in the process of developing and using BIM technology based projects. In view of the fact and to address this issue, this paper establishes a three-dimensional architectural model based on the relevant information and data of the construction project using the BIM technology. The proposed model optimizes the clustering of construction project information data and adaptively configures the whole life cycle process of the construction projects. In addition, the performance of the proposed system has been compared and tested with the other systems as well which shows how good the proposed system is, as compared to the other systems. Further, the proposed model makes the artificial intelligence efficiency of the project management better. The simulation results show that the model not only has good access and query capabilities but also greatly improves the intelligence level of the project management.

Management Case Study

In the field of engineering and construction, unqualified construction quality, time delays, cost more than expected phenomena to occur. Because of these characteristics such as its large-scale construction projects, long cycle, the production of single and complex, there is greater risk than the production of general products, the risk increases the difficulty of construction project management, operating costs and the possibility of potential losses, therefore, risk management emerged and become an increasingly important integral part of project management. In this paper, fuzzy analytic hierarchy be used to construction project risk assessment, and to order the sort of each risk in order to prevent significant risks. On an actual project - the new stadium construction in Weifang City risk management case study, the reduction of risk of project failure is expected, but also the project is hoped for other industries to provide some reference for risk management.

Companies try to use better techniques to deal with complex projects. The maturity of companies to apply these better techniques can guarantee project success or not. The environment, where the engineering and construction project is developed, also has influence over the success. The maturity of a company's project management processes is also a factor of success. This chapter aims to talk about concepts related to engineering and construction initiatives.

Reform And Opening Up

Since the reform and opening up, Chinese economic and social development has undergone great changes, and the people’s living standards have improved markedly. For the national economy, the engineering construction is not only a carrier for specific economic tasks, but also a driving force for rapid and sustained economic development. With the continuous expansion of the scale of construction projects, safety management problems of construction projects are constantly exposed. How to effectively avoid accidents has become an important issue to be solved urgently in the construction industry. This paper mainly evaluates human factors in the process of construction project management, such as workers’ proficiency, workers’ safety awareness, technical workers’ quality, and workers’ emergency capacity, with the purpose of helping China’s construction projects proceed smoothly. In this research, we provide a multiple attribute group decision-making (MAGDM) technique based on Pythagorean 2-tuple linguistic numbers (P2TLNs) and the VIseKriterijumska Optimizacija I KOmpromisno Resenje (VIKOR) method for evaluating the human factors of construction projects. P2TLNs are used to represent the performance assessments of decision makers. Relying on a P2TLWA operator, P2TLWG operator, and the essential VIKOR method, a general framework is established. An application is presented to test the validity of the new method, and a comparative analysis with two algorithms and the P2TL-TODIM method is illustrated with detail.

This research describes the managerial approaches that contractors follow to determine different types of contingencies in construction project management. Two large Spanish general contractors were selected for an in-depth analysis. Interviews and surveys were conducted with six additional companies to explore the external validity of the findings. Managers constrain time and cost buffers through project objectives, applying heuristics to determine inventory buffers. The management of capacity buffers is entrusted to subcontractors. The contractors take advantage of scope and quality buffers to meet project objectives but rarely share these buffers with the owner, unless the owner is an internal client.

Request for information (RFI) is considered as one of the important administrative tools in construction projects. It can be used as an indicator on how well the coordination between parties, especially between contractors and engineers and/or supervisors, performed in a project. Delays in a construction project could be identified by analyzing the RFI documents, but on the other hand, they could also be caused by poor administrative in handling the RFI documents and by delays in processing RFIs. This paper reviews the performance of four building projects in handling their RFI documents. The four buildings were constructed by a national joint-operation contractor, designed and supervised by an international joint-operation consultant. The RFI responses and wok-in-process were used to measure the project’s performance in handling the RFI documents; from the contractor’s and the engineer’s point of views. The analysis results show that the engineer had been very responsive in processing RFIs, while the contractor had difficulties. In general, the contractor was lack of capable personnel in handling RFIs for all four buildings. Moreover, communication problem was the key of the project’s performance due to different language and culture. The authors believed that the results of the analysis would influence to the overall project performance.

The Relationship

Expect for formal contracts, there are informally unwritten psychological contracts (PC) in the relationship between buyer and supplier for construction projects. The PC can affect the construction project performance and even cause project failure, but its process and formation are complex and not comprehensive in existing researches. This paper analyzes the PC between buyer and supplier by using evolutionary game and repeated game to tackle this gap. The results show the following: (1) the goodwill and interest have an important impact on PC fulfillment. (2) The PC is vulnerable; for example, once either one fails to perform PC, the other will also destroy PC, and then the construction project will enter a vicious circle. (3) In the process of repeated game, the effect of goodwill will gradually disappear, and the interest will play a major role. (4) If the project performance is only linked to one participant, it will lead to breach from another player. Some measures may help both sides to complete PC, such as making both sides profitable, increasing the emphasis on business reputation, and improving the relevance of construction projects performance.

The delay of work is common in construction projects. Delay has a major impact on time and cost overrun. Project management helps to avoid or minimize delays in future work. Here in this paper, two private residential apartments are considered for evaluation. One project has been executed using software and the second project has no such process. The first project prepared with time schedule, resource allocation and levelling, estimation, billing and cash flow all the details using the software tools helps to execute the project with more profit and less delay in work execution whereas the other experimental project is not having plan, same less resource, poor execution leads to heavy loss and more stress to the builder.
