Abstract:

Technology and innovations have fueled the evolution of Industry 4.0, the fourth industrial revolution. Industry 4.0 encourages growth and development through its efficiency capacity, as documented in the literature. The growth of the construction industry is a subset of the universal set of the gross domestic product value; thus, Industry 4.0 has a spillover effect on the engineering and construction industry. In this study, we aimed to map the state of Industry 4.0 in the construction industry, to identify its key areas, and evaluate and interpret the available evidence. We focused our literature search on Web of Science and Scopus between January 2015 and May 2019. The search was dependent on the following keywords: “Industry 4.0” OR “Industrial revolution 4.0” AND TOPIC: “construction” OR “building”. From the 82 papers found, 20 full-length papers were included in this review. Results from the targeted papers were split into three clusters: technology, security, and management. With building information modelling (BIM) as the core in the cyber-physical system, the cyber-planning-physical system is able to accommodate BIM functionalities to improve construction lifecycle. This collaboration and autonomous synchronization system are able to automate the design and construction processes, and improve the ability of handling substantial amounts of heterogeneity-laden data. Industry 4.0 is expected to augment both the quality and productivity of construction and attract domestic and foreign investors.

Abstract:

This paper aimed to unveil the outcome of an appraisal of the systematic approach to construction information management. This was performed with a view of creating awareness of how information management can be beneficial through the management of the large chunk of information emanating from construction processes. This will improve the gathering, sharing, and storage of information for construction activities. The study implemented a quantitative survey approach with the aid of a questionnaire as the mechanism for data gathering from architects, civil engineers, quantity surveyors, mechanical and electrical engineers, construction managers, and project managers. Data analysis ensued with the aid of SPSS in which applicable measure of dispersal and inferential statistics were implemented. The study unveiled that information management is a major aspect of the construction procedure, and that, to achieve in construction, there must be a well-structured information system. Further findings revealed that the benefits of information management include the firm’s growth, organizational performance, enhanced market value, employee’s motivation, and quality service. The prowess of this study depends on the appraisal of the benefits of systematic management of construction information and how identification of the benefits can help to motivate construction companies.

Abstract:

This article evaluated the knowledge of Construction Waste Management (CWM) among contractors in Gqeberha and establish what legislative shortcomings were there in terms of CWM regulations. The reduction in landfilling could decrease the waste management cost for construction companies, and reduce negative impacts on the environment. This article used a qualitative design approach. The primary data was obtained through structured interviews from a selected number of main contractors in Gqeberha. The study focused on on-site agents, contracts managers, and Health Safety and Envronment officers through a nonprobability sampling technique. The study reveled that the lack of government legislation, to discourage the landfilling of waste, was the main catalyst. The primary data also stated that the lack of recycling facilities also contributed to the abundance of landfilling waste among contractors in Gqeberha. The research findings also showed that contractors in Gqeberha were knowledgeable on several construction waste management strategies. Future research will require contractors to research the potential economic benefits of CWM, as well as minimisation and recovery CWM strategies, and the local municipality to explore methods of discouraging landfilling waste, within the construction industry and in other sectors, as well as the economic and environmental benefits of CWM. The article provided insight concerning the CW and CWM practices among contractors in Gqeberha, including identifying the interventions required to address shortcomings.

Abstract:

Purpose Lean construction provides innovative practices to manage construction projects while reducing waste and improving performance. This paper aims to explore the current level of awareness of lean construction practices among Moroccan construction professionals to assess the potential benefits derived from lean construction practices and to identify the critical barriers hindering a successful implementation. Design/methodology/approach The paper opted for a quantitative approach by using a structured questionnaire survey. A total of 330 valid responses were collected from Moroccan construction practitioners involved in private and public construction organisations. Findings The results show that 61 per cent of the respondents are familiar with lean construction practices. The findings have also pointed out that the lean construction approach adds a positive impact, specifically on quality, safety and environmental level. In addition, the main barriers hindering a successful lean construction deployment in Morocco are lack of knowledge about lean construction philosophy, unskilled human resources and insufficient financial resources. Originality/value This study provides a new insight into the implementation of lean construction in Morocco. It contributes to the body of knowledge, as it uncovers for the first time the level of awareness, the potential benefits derived from lean construction practices and the barriers to implementing lean construction in the Moroccan construction industry. Exploring the current state of lean construction implementation can help practitioners, companies and researchers in the Moroccan construction industry to focus their effort and resources on the significant issues necessary to assist a successful implementation of lean construction. Furthermore, the findings of this study could prove valuable to other countries in Africa, especially those sharing similarities to the Moroccan context.

Abstract:

Taking Beijing as the core, this study takes the data related to the construction industry from 2011 to 2018 as the basis. By constructing a cross-regional influence model and collaborative coupling evaluation model of China’s construction industry considering economic, social, and ecological development, this study comprehensively investigates the current situation of the cross-regional development of China’s capital construction industry. Results show that the external contribution of Beijing’s construction industry is manifested in three situations. A general trend of rising first and then falling is also observed. The contribution of Beijing’s construction enterprises to northwest China has long been low, whereas its contribution rate to Tianjin, Hebei, and Guangdong Provinces is high. The regional difference is significant, showing a “catch-up effect.” The contribution degree and the development level of China’s construction industry are usually at a low coupling and antagonistic level. The verification of the influencing factors indicates that the external influence of the construction industry in Beijing has a significant positive effect on the supporting environment of the industry and the development level of the construction industry.

Abstract:

Annual monitoring of the condition of the South African construction industry is vital to enable government and other role players to evaluate the impact of current interventions to timeously and pro-actively implement revised legislation, strategies and development programs to form an updated roadmap for the future well-being and growth of the industry. This monitoring of the construction industry is done annually by the Construction Industry Development Board (cidb) by utilizing construction industry indicators. A database with contact particulars of employers, contractors and agents involved in 3441 projects completed in 2008 was compiled. Three separate survey forms were faxed or e-mailed to the contractors, employers and agents of these projects. Their responses were captured in a Microsoft Access database. The scope of this report is limited to the results received from the contractors. The main findings were that the projects of small upcoming contractors were just as profitable as those of the larger well-established contractors. Only 42% of all contractors were paid on time. The national departments were the worst performers with regard to timeous payment of contractors. This research contributes to the understanding of the construction industry and highlights existing problems to solve on the way forward. Government can make use of the results obtained to timeously and pro-actively implement revised legislation, strategies and development programs to ensure the well-being and growth of the industry.

Abstract:

The dawn of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, better known as Industry 4.0, is set to enable global networks of machines and equipment in an environment of smart factories, capable of instantly exchanging information in an independent manner and having the Internet of Things and Cyber-Physical Systems as backbone for an autonomous operation. Great gains in productivity and flexibility are expected, which tend to intensify global competitiveness, promote social changes and economic development, besides stimulating new academic works, such as the proposal of models capable of identifying the maturity level of an organization in this context. Therefore, the present work proposes a maturity model to measure the maturity level of civil construction companies regarding the adoption of technologies and practices of Industry 4.0. Based on a systematic literature review, the proposed model was built from existing maturity models and their characteristics and relevant components. The model is supported by a elaborated questionnaire of twenty-three questions considering four dimensions (Technology, Organization, People and Sustainability) which was submitted to seven different companies in the city of Manaus/Brazil. The results after the practical application of the model showed that most companies had a low level of adoption of Industry 4.0 principles and there is plenty of room for improvement.

Abstract:

In finance area, portfolio construction is one of the most vital questions since the primary work of modern finance and attract numerous studies. In this paper, we focused on this issue in pharmaceutical industry since the industry is crucial for human beings. We adopted several methods for portfolio construction, like Equal Weighted Model, Monte Carlo simulation, and maximize Sharpe ratio etc. Specifically, five assets are selected. Then based on the Monte Carlo method, we constructed two optimized portfolios in the framework of the efficient frontier, i.e., portfolios with minimum variance and maximum Sharpe ratio. By analyzing the two portfolios, we found that the NVS accounts for the largest proportions in the optimized portfolio. The results in this paper may shed lights for certain investors who invest in pharmaceutical industry.
