“…In this context, several powerful machine learning methods such as random forest (Zhang et al, 2020) and support vector machine (Sanni-Anibire et al, 2020) or deep learning algorithms subjected to image processing (through image data) (Arashpour et al, 2021;Mostafa and Hegazy, 2021) or natural language processing (through text data) (Khalef and El-adaway 2021) can be used effectively to help improve schedule performance of construction projects.

PurposeCompleting construction projects within the planned schedule has widely been considered as one of the major project success factors. This study investigates the use of technologies to address delays in construction projects and aims to address three research questions (1) to identify the adopted technologies and proposed solutions in the literature, (2) to explore the reasons why the delays cannot be prevented despite disruptive technologies and (3) to determine the major strategies to prevent delays in construction projects.Design/methodology/approachIn total, 208 research articles that used innovative technologies, methods, or tools to avoid delays in construction projects were investigated by conducting a comprehensive literature review. An elaborative content analysis was performed to cover the implemented technologies and their transformation, highlighted research fields in relation to selected technologies, focused delay causes and corresponding delay mitigation strategies and emphasized project types with specific delay causes. According to the analysis results, a typological framework with appropriate technological means was proposed.FindingsThe findings revealed that several tools such as planning, imaging, geo-spatial data collection, machine learning and optimization have widely been adopted to address specific delay causes. It was also observed that strategies to address various delay causes throughout the life cycle of construction projects have been overlooked in the literature. The findings of the present research underpin the trends and technological advances to address significant delay causes.Originality/valueDespite the technological advancements in the digitalization era of Industry 4.0, many construction projects still suffer from poor schedule performance. However, the reason of this is questionable and has not been investigated thoroughly.

“…Those methods have limitations in addressing the uncertainty, subjectivity, and biases involved. Instead, the fuzzy method evaluates a risk (nonconformity in this paper) linguistically and transfers it to a fuzzy triangular or trapezoidal number or range instead of a crisp value (Islam et al 2019a;Nguyen and Robinson Fayek 2022). The decision maker's risk attitude (seeker, neutral, or averse) and corresponding project contexts, along with the fuzzy risk assessment result, assists them to take an informed decision in handling those risks.…”

Construction nonconformity assessment of buildings is critical to ensure the anticipated quality and living safety for their future occupants. Previous studies have paid less attention to identifying and analyzing building construction nonconformities (BCNs) in the design and construction (D&C) phases considering expert judgments, which are critiqued for human bias, uncertainty, and imprecision. In BCN assessment, previous studies also did not consider the specific time frame to detect construction nonconformities. This study aims to prioritize nonconformities in the D&C phases, addressing the limitations of expert judgment by applying the Fuzzy Group Decision-Making Approach (FGDMA).

“…The economic vaibility of scrap recovery for use in secondary production can be determined by the global scrap prices particulary for steel (Nguyen and Robinson Fayek 2022). Griffin and Hammond (2021) has proven that steel industrial has high contribution in carbon dioxide, but has never opposed the fact that steel is still import to every industry for multfunctionality.…”

There is a discovery of space limitless within the laboratories particularly for universities. This is centered on the multifunctioning university laboratory that generate practical for semester and yearly students. Storages within the laboratory has shown capabilities in storing a maximum of metal and all other type of material but that reduces the available space. Space maximization project with high technical and engineering skill obligation. An early fulfillment of space with the laboratory increases the health and safety failure every year and might results in increase of injuries with the work pace. This article adopts inventory control, facilitates planning and material handling to reveal the major challenges. As university laboratories are improved in storing through engineering design to maximize space will have positive impact manufacturing industries as well by improving material control and limiting the unnecessary incidents. The statistical technique was further employed to quantify the improvements through fabrication of raw material. Results show that metal material can be protected from abstracting rust by fabricating the steel material shelves designing. A proper technology involvement to fabricate all material utilized within the laboratories still to be addressed in the future through research.
