In order to enhance students' individual and team competency in building information modeling (BIM) project execution, this research adopts the team-based learning (TBL) pedagogy aligns student outcomes BIM with hierarchy defined by Bloom's taxonomy of educational objectives into a Civil Engineering Management (CEM) capstone under framework Accreditation Board for Technology (ABET) standards. By designing series modules accordance different phases typical lifecycle, including design,...

Higher education ought to support the identification of training needs for industrial building information modelling (BIM) curriculum development and sustainability in fields civil engineering management (CEM). This paper proposes a framework based on four-phase step-by-step quality function deployment (QFD) application CEM planning management. The attempts respond requests collected from 17 professionals professors order integrate BIM into higher China with specific focus construction...

Rapid economic development usually leads to serious environmental pollution problems. In order solve the problem of pollutant emission in sustainable industrial development, it is urgent examine implementation effect emissions trading policy (ETP) and its impact on green development. This study adopts China's ETP as a case selects provincial panel data from 2004 2018. We first use non-radial, non-directed, slack-based measure-directional distance function (SBM-DDF) measure innovation...

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to improve students’ problem-solving skills in civil engineering and construction management education. Design/methodology/approach design includes structured role-playing as a pedagogical method 21 project teams with total 82 undergraduate students at Chang’an University, China, nine-week Building Information Modeling (BIM) capstone course. methodology teaching–learning experiment education program detailed description the empirical case assessment...

Environmental regulations (ER) can support or dissuade the reduction of carbon emissions. However, there are limited studies on impact ER emissions for transportation infrastructure. Using provincial panel data from China period 2001–2017, this study measures how affect efficiency (CEE) The uses Hansen's threshold model to analyze current thresholds CEE. results show that (1) China's infrastructure during 2001–2017 experienced a 10.15% decrease CEE; (2) significant heterogeneities across...

The transportation sector generates enormous amount of environmental emission. This study aims to assess the impact emissions in a infrastructure project life cycle. Using fast track China as case study, materials used and energy consumed over cycle were converted into emissions. was divided three phases including construction, maintenance repair, demolition phases. Both qualitative quantitative method applied explore project. assessment (LCA) for development (EIA) model analyze contribution...

The competence of leveraging Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology in the early project stages is critical to drive its efficacy throughout life cycle. However, a review literature indicated lack research into upskilling undergraduate students civil engineering and construction management (CECM) majors, particularly with respect such competencies as using BIM design, planning, processing, managing, communicating complex projects. To better facilitate skills for students, this study...

The purpose of this research is to study the vulnerability construction enterprises’ innovation capabilities (CEIC) and their respective primary influencing factors. This paper proposed a system framework CEIC, designed two comprehensive assessments for analysis, namely entropy set pair analysis method (E-SPA) principle cluster SPA (P-SPA), compared grades verify assessments. Further, quantitatively assessed major factors in facilitating management, reducing vulnerability, improving ability...

Enhancing students' interdisciplinary design ability in a highway engineering context is important for the development of building information modeling (BIM). This paper proposes new paradigm and its service areas based on BIM platform, integrating road, bridge, tunnel, costing; architecture; structure; water supply drainage; heating ventilation; electrical senior year capstone course. An overall breakdown work system constructed joint process guided by discipline. technology utilized to...

Science and Technology Innovation Communities (STICs) are student-led partnerships that bring together businesses, research centres, university staff. They constitute an effective way of promoting student innovation ability. However, the students' position within STICs organisation network may condition how their ability is effectively acquired. Using Social Network Analysis (SNA), this study measures promotes its actors. The paper finds centrality structural holes positively correlated with...

Purpose This research aims to develop an approach assess the reliability of integrated construction supply chains via model building information modelling (BIM) and lean chain (LSC). It reflects synergistic workflow between BIM LSC as a novel improve projects. Design/methodology/approach evaluates BIM-LSC through combination entropy theory, set pair analysis (SPA), Markov (EESM). An exploratory survey was conducted collect data from 316 industry professionals experienced in LSC....
