“…Although no existing studies specifically focus on the management approach of RB-TI in CMDAs, previous literature can identify many management methods of TI that can provide a methods pool for this study, such as modular theory, TRIZ theory, analytic hierarchy process (AHP), structural equation model (SEM), and work breakdown structure(WBS). For instance, Qi and Wu [ 15 ] established an integrated innovation network for low-carbon technologies on modular; Ding et al [ 16 ] proposed a design framework for the construction TI platform based on TRIZ to improve the innovation capacity and efficiency of the industry; Liu [ 17 ] applied AHP to develop an analytical model for the TI competitiveness of the regional high-tech industry in China; Jiang et al [ 18 ] employed SEM to analyze the paths of influence of humble leadership on the innovation of technology standards. TRIZ theory can quickly and accurately analyze and identify core problems to improve the efficiency of innovation, but it tends to ignore the role of the innovation subject and its characteristics.…”

With China’s government facilitating railway projects, more railway bridges (RBs) are gradually built in complex and difficult mountainous areas (CDMAs). The construction activities of RB in CMDAs are facing formidable challenges in terms of the natural environment, technology, and organization management, which are hardly solved by traditional bridge design and construction techniques. Therefore, there is an urgent need for technology innovation (TI). Studies on the management of RB-TI in CMDAs are limited. As such, this study aims to offer an effective modular management approach to RB-TI in CMDAs. A system of demand and obstacle factors for RB-TI in CMDAs was identified firstly based on the literature review and the grounded theory, including seven intermediate codings and 29 initial codings. Then these factors were regarded as the system requirements for modular decomposition, to establish a “cut-to-fit” modular management approach to RB-TI in CMDAs. A case (i.e., the LD bridge project of the CZ railway) was selected to demonstrate and validate the developed approach. The results show that the proposed approach can be applied to manage RB-TI in CMDAs. The innovation of this study lies in the integration of grounded theory and modular theory and provides modular management ideas and measures for bridge engineering technology innovation. Findings from this study enrich the knowledge body of RB-TI and guide innovation subjects in the practical management of RB-TI in CMDAs.

“…At this point, the Theory of Inventive Problem Solving (TRIZ) is an excellent method to provide inventive solutions to problems thanks to the promotion of innovative ideas. TRIZ has already been applied in various construction related researches, which highlights its power in promoting innovation and advancing construction technology [6][7][8]. TRIZ is a more powerful technique when integrated with other problem solving tools such as SWOT, brainstorming and 6σ [9].…”

The construction industry needs safer practices due to its complex and fragmented nature. Therefore, making errors visible is essential to the process of error proofing. With the Lean concept, it becomes possible to design out errors and develop ways to prevent errors before they turn into defects. Lean also creates a more productive and effective process when implementing innovative methods such as TRIZ, a problem solving, analysis and forecasting tool. Lean TRIZ is a new approach to improve construction processes while reducing the likelihood of defects. It strongly coincides with the elimination or possible prevention of errors originating from unsafe actions and conditions. Considering the high number of accidents in the construction industry, it is of utmost importance to implement tools and techniques to prevent the probability of such occurrences. Therefore, this study proposes a new method for error prevention with the implementation of the Lean TRIZ method to minimize safety-related problems in construction. Then, real construction problems caused by unsafe practices and conditions are analyzed with the Lean TRIZ method. The main contribution of the study is to introduce the Lean TRIZ concept and analyze the feasibility of applying this method to solve safety problems. In addition, the study provides a guide and encourages construction practitioners to benefit from the solutions provided by this research in the context of Lean TRIZ methodology.

“…Moreover, Kale and Arditi (2010) opined that innovation diffusion is under the influence of the environment because of the knowledge exchanged regarding the innovation between one organisation and the environment. In addition, Gambatese and Hallowell (2011) and Ding et al (2014) enunciated that one of the main enablers of innovations in the construction industry is effective knowledge management. All the above discussions advocate for consideration of the great influences of knowledge management and the industry's bank of knowledge over diffusion of innovations in the construction industry.…”

Purpose – This study aims to present an integrated conceptual model in order to highlight the major aspects of diffusion of innovations in the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) context. To this end, a critical review of literature is conducted, accompanied by synthesising the findings of previous studies. The driving force behind this study is stemmed from the fragmentation of literature on innovation diffusion, and paucity of research on diffusion of Global Virtual Engineering Teams (GVETs) as the platform for many technological innovations in relevant literature. Thus, the present study is intended to facilitate filling the gap in GVETs literature. That is, the proposed model will offer a foundation for academia for grounding studies on any innovation including GVETs in the literature on innovation diffusion in the AEC context. Design/methodology/approach – This paper draws upon the qualitative meta-analysis approach encompassing a critical review of the relevant literature. To this end, the review builds upon studies found within 15 prestigious journals in AEC. The domain of this review was confined to areas described as “innovation”, “innovation diffusion” and “innovation adoption”, along with keywords used within a broad review of recently published GVETs literature. The rigour of review is augmented by incorporating 35 authoritative works from other disciplines published in 21 well-known journals in the manufacturing, business and management fields. Moreover, the study deploys the peer-debriefing approach through conducting unstructured interviews with five Australian scholars to verify a model presenting an aggregated summary of previous studies. Findings – The key findings of the study include the following items: synthesising the fragmented studies on innovation diffusion in the AEC context. In doing so, a model capturing the major aspects affecting diffusion of an innovation in AEC projects is presented; providing a foundation to address the drawbacks of previous studies within the sphere of GVETs, based on the developed model. Research limitations/implications – The developed model was only enhanced using a small sample size of academics, as such not empirically validated. Originality/value – As possibly, the first literature review of innovation in the AEC context, this paper contributes to the sphere by sensitising the AEC body of knowledge on innovation diffusion as a concise conceptual model, albeit verified through the peer-debriefing approach. This study will also further establish the research field in AEC on GVETs along with other methods reliant on virtual working such as building information modelling (BIM) through providing an expanded foundation for future inquiries and creation of knowledge.
