“…To improve schedule robustness in a risky environment, two kinds of optimization strategies were proposed, which included improving the stability of the schedule plan and the robustness of solutions reacting to risk delays [23]. Comprised of construction duration risk assessment and time buffer allocation, a proactive methodology for schedule reliability was studied [24]. Referring to the above literature, this study adopts time buffer allocation as the first step of collaborative scheduling resistant to risk disruptions.…”

As a kind of sustainable technology, prefabricated construction has increasingly gained momentum internationally due to its numerous benefits that include, but are not limited to, safe construction, waste minimization, quality improvement, and productivity enhancement. However, productivity in this domain is reliant on the efficiency of both on-site and off-site operations. On this basis, focusing on collaborative scheduling mechanisms, the current paper develops a static scheduling model and a dynamic scheduling model in prefabricated construction, and uses a simulated annealing algorithm (SA) to settle the optimization of operation planning considering delays by risks. The developed models are validated using data from a construction project with multiple suppliers of prefabricated elements. This study contributes to the body of knowledge in prefabricated construction management by streamlining collaborative scheduling in prefabrication. The established models provide construction managers with decision support systems with the aims of minimizing delays and related cost overruns.

“…The duration target runs through all stages of the project life cycle, so it is necessary to make the time schedule according to the characteristics of different types of engineering (Jin, 2015). The destructive impact of random factors can be avoided to ensure that the actual construction process of the project meets the expected planning (Jaśkowski, 2015). The construction schedule is affected by the objective and subjective environment in many ways, and the impact size of different types engineering is different, and the random events are also different in the construction process.…”

Harmony is the process of coordinated development between the elements, subsystems and the environment in each Engineering stage of the engineering implementation. Quality, duration, cost and risk are the key factors to achieve engineering harmony. Clarifying the influencing factors of engineering harmony and its mechanism can improve the possibility of success. The meta-analysis method is used to carry out a restudy of existing researches of engineering harmony. First, quality, duration, cost and risk are selected as the variables of achieving engineering harmony. Second, the paper collects 29 existing researches including many countries and regions around the world on the relationship between the variables and engineering harmony. Third, each value is calculated and corrected according to literature coding. Forth, publication deviation and total effect test are checked. Finally, the research conclusions and engineering management implications are given based on the results of meta-analysis. The results show that quality objective, duration objective, cost objective and risk management objective all have positive impact on achieving engineering harmony. The engineering type has no regulatory effect on positive impact of the duration objective and cost objective, but has regulatory effect on positive impact of the quality objective and risk management objective on the engineering harmony.
