Resumen

The construction industry poses a number of challenges to those working in it. One important challenge is that the industry is dependent upon human interactions in the management of building projects. In this environment it is important for those who manage the projects to deal with intricate relationships and to consider the emotions, interactions and various types of reasoning that lie behind the actions and decisions taken by the participants in the construction process. The issue for researchers is to gain a better understanding of the variables that affect the actions of the participants in this process. Such research demands sensitivity to the values, attitudes and behavior developed by the different occupational groupings. These factors according to Edgar Schein define the culture of a professional group. This research was conceived on the belief that the professionals in the construction industry brought to bear their own professional culture on the industry. It was necessary to have a better understanding of this culture in order to be able to resolve disputes that occur in the construction process. That is the impact of culturally deternlined values, attitudes and behavior of these professional groups. Therefore, this research is aimed at investigating the professional cultures of the participants who come together in a construction project. The question posed was whether they shared a culture or had differences, and if differences existed whetherthese differences had an effect on the reactions of each of the groups to disputes and their resolution. A survey was carried out among professional groups in Australia and Sri-Lanka and the survey data from both countries were analyzed using statistical tests. The results show that professional groups share similarities in professional culture as well as differences. It also showed that these cultural differences created an adversarial atmosphere among construction project participants. It was also found that introducing a party outside of the usual professional groups would be beneficial in the resolution process. Respondents were of the opinion that the third party outside of the construction team could be a lawyer. This type of research is still new within the field of construction. The contributions of this work are to link professional culture and conflict and give some indication how such conflict could be addressed. In this context by identifying the values attitudes and behavior of professional groups the subject of conflict and disputes could be beneficially addressed through professional education.

Resumen

The objective of this thesis is to develop a conceptual design of a computerized environment for detailed design of construction activities associated with projects characterized by significant repetition. High-rise building construction is used as the example of repetitive construction projects. The construction cycle design of a typical floor structure is studied to gain an understanding of the difficulty and complexity involved in the activity design process. Modeling techniques currently used in construction planning, modeling techniques developed in the field of operations research, and assembly line balancing techniques used in industrial engineering are reviewed to determine their applicability for detailed construction cycle design. Using the concept of decision support systems developed in the fields of management science and knowledge engineering for solving ill-structured and ill-defined problems, a conceptual design of a decision support system for construction cycle design is developed.<br>Applied Science, Faculty of<br>Civil Engineering, Department of<br>Graduate

Resumen

<p>Background:</p><p>After immense criticism, the Swedish government requested an investigation concerning</p><p>the construction industry. The report concludes that the inactive competition within the</p><p>construction industry entail that the industry continuously delivers the same products, in</p><p>the same way. Gabrielsson & Lutz (2002), states that the market condition and the long</p><p>history of static competition within the construction industry has led to low productivity,</p><p>high consumption of resources, large influences on the environment, higher costs and a</p><p>lack of qualified labour. The construction industry is now dealing with an increasing competition</p><p>and evidently decreasing subsidies from the government, that will continue to influence</p><p>the construction industry, and the companies, which therefore must work hard to</p><p>sustain and increase their competitive advantages.</p><p>Purpose:</p><p>Describe how a construction firm could integrate the strategy with the operative work on</p><p>the project level in order to sustain and develop their competitive advantages in a growing</p><p>competitive environment, by implementing a balanced scorecard (BSC).</p><p>Method:</p><p>Since the problem and the subject are complex and vast, the authors started the research by</p><p>study a wide range of literature, articles and journals. Three interviews were made with a</p><p>project leader working at the site, operative level, and two managers working on the strategic</p><p>level, in the line organization above the project leader. With this selection the authors</p><p>aimed to see whether the three experienced the organization and strategies the same way.</p><p>Conclusions:</p><p>The authors have concluded that NCC needs to go from being a very decentralized organization</p><p>to be more of a centralized one. The centralization concerns purchase, coordination,</p><p>industrialization, and project selection. The strategy has to involve all of these factors. NCC</p><p>needs to coordinate the retention of knowledge and newly found solutions. They also need</p><p>to have continuing processes of development and improvement concerning this retention,</p><p>which in favourability should be located on a national level. This could raise NCC’s</p><p>chances to achieve increased efficiency, decreased costs, better quality and environment.</p><p>The authors further believe that NCC needs to strengthen their focus on industrialization</p><p>on a national level, while letting the project organizations act as its own company. Every</p><p>project is unique and therefore NCC needs to learn from all projects in ability to see the</p><p>possibilities and enlighten the problems in all types of projects. If not, the large-scale production</p><p>benefits could be missed out.</p>

Resumen

Byggbranschen står nu inför ett utmanande kliv i hållbarhetens riktning - att ta sig an och arbeta för en socialt hållbar samhällsutveckling. Intresset att arbeta med detta är stort hos både entreprenörer, beställare och samhället i stort. Detta bidrar till att offentliga beställare formulerar krav på socialt arbete i offentliga upphandlingar, då offentlig upphandling är ett verktyg med stor genomslagskraft som kan användas för att föra detta arbete framåt. Syftet med studien är att ta reda på vad begreppet sociala hänsyn innebär, att sammanställa vilka krav på sociala hänsyn som ställs och kommer att ställas i upphandlingar som offentliga beställare i Östergötland annonserar samt identifiera de områden som beställarna avser utveckla inom ämnet. Detta för att entreprenörföretagen ska kunna satsa på en utveckling av det område inom sociala hänsyn som kommer att vara mest aktuellt i regionen, nu och i kommande upphandlingar. Detta mynnar ut i frågeställningarna: Vad innebär begreppet sociala hänsyn? Vilka krav på sociala hänsyn ställer offentliga beställare vid upphandling? Vilka åtgärder bör entreprenörerna vidta för att leva upp till kraven på sociala hänsyn som offentliga beställare prioriterar? Genom intervjuer med beställare och entreprenörer i byggbranschen har en grund skapats för att kunna definiera begreppet sociala hänsyn som "en inkludering av alla individer i samhället oavsett kön, ålder, fysisk förmåga eller etnisk tillhörighet". Insamling av publicerade förfrågningsunderlag visar på att det fokusområde inom social hållbarhet som prioriteras idag är krav på sysselsättningsåtgärder, där fokus ligger på att inkludera individer som står utanför arbetsmarknaden. Slutsatsen är att entreprenörerna bör arbeta för att skapa fler platser i driftentreprenader och produktion, för att öka antalet sysselsatta, samt komplettera detta med bra utbildningar, handledning och stöttning. Det har även visat sig finnas förbättringsmöjligheter i beställarorganisationernas arbete med att ställa krav på sociala hänsyn, vilka, utöver svaren på frågeställningarna, presenteras i slutsatsen.

Resumen

Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Civil and Environmental Engineering, 2004.<br>Includes bibliographical references (leaves 59-61).<br>This thesis explores the application of the Lean Enterprise Model (LEM) to construction firms. LEM is a framework derived from lean manufacturing principles by MIT's Lean Aerospace Initiative (LAI) for the aerospace industry. Construction firms also need new business models to meet the change in construction industry environment. Lean enterprise could assist in the development of a new business model. In theory, LEM could be applied to any given industry. A matrix has been created in which six key construction characteristics are compared to six key lean enterprise principles in order to asses how compatible would the lean enterprise model be taking into account the particularities of the construction industry. The results show that in some aspects the construction industry is already somewhat lean, e.g. it works on the basis of customer pull, while in others the application of lean principles would require a big mindset and cultural change, e.g. adversarial relationships due to the lump sum bidding system.<br>by Juan Marchini-Blanco.<br>S.M.

Resumen

Problem: Many women experience problems when trying to enter the construction industry and perceive several barriers in professional practice. As a result, day by day women are losing their interest in building their career within this male-dominated industry and diverting towards other professions. The fact that women are showing less interest to work within construction industry and leaving the industry has been found as a major problem. Since in this male dominated industry around ninety percent labour are men and expecting a large numbers of retirement in the future, therefore today’s construction industry has a strong demand for labour. The construction industry’s representatives want to increase the number of women in this trade, but because of the previous reputation and discriminatory work environment it’s become difficult to attract more women. Therefore, to enhance the participation of women in construction trades, it is necessary to understand women’s perceptions about the nature of work and level of satisfaction or dissatisfaction with the job. It is also important to know what kind of changes in the work environment can motivate women not to leave this industry? How to eliminate the barriers in professional practice? Purpose: This thesis explores the current position of women in construction industry, and seeks to identify the reasons of women’s disinterest about the industry, job satisfaction and the barriers (professional and social) that compel women to think to change career and leave the construction industry. Method: This study has been performed through a qualitative interview study based on themes, on the subject of women in male-dominated industry. The research data is collected by conducting semi-structured interviews with professionals from Sweden, the USA, Canada, Latvia, Greece, The Netherlands and Bangladesh. The participants were active within the construction industry, and had the designation of project manager, construction engineer or structural engineer. To analysis the data in this research the Thematic Analysis approach has been adopted. Findings: The interviewed women stated that the unpleasant work environment, gender discriminatory behaviours from the male colleagues, less career development opportunities, unfair promotion system and unequal salary compel them to rethink about their career choice and leave the construction industry. The results of this study showed that the barriers women face in professional practice also depends on the geographical position and societal culture.
