  1. 1. On-site production synchronisation : improving the resource-flow in construction projects

    Author : Håkan Norberg; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Construction Engineering and Management; Byggproduktion;

    Abstract : This thesis presents a process model to support the synchronisation of work flow and resource flows in construction projects. The process model is based on a combination of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) and construction management methods. Work-flow is defined as the flow of work on-site, i.e. READ MORE
