Abstract |
The early phase of construction projects, communication among the related participants has great influence on the furthertransaction of the projects. However, important decision making are made by the experience of the field managers in practicewithout the method for systematic analysis. For example, in building construction project, selection process for constructionmethod has been executed by decision making of some architects dependent on their experience. As a result, there have beenfrequent construction method alterations during the construction process and delay of duration, addition of cost, etc havefollowed accordingly. The main reasons of such a mal-functional transaction are due to the absent of the reasonal procedure ofdecision making reflecting the characteristics of construction project. Therefore, there is a need for an supporting tool andproduction design for the selection of rational construction method.The objective of this study is to propose production design process and decision making model in relation to various influentfactors at the early phase of construction projects. To achieve these objectives, this study 1)analyzes the prior theory aboutproduction design, 2)we have studied about selection process for optimal construction method through constraint analysis instructural works, 3)performs a case study to embody the problems of the production design, and 4)proposes a cooperativecommittee model for supporting production design by analyzing the results of case study and interviewing experts. It isanticipated that the effective tool of proposed model would be able to improve communication among the related participants andsystematically accumulate data that might be used in similar construction projects. |
