Today, recycling of construction and demolition waste (C&DW) by plants is a reasonable alternative to the existing unsustainable disposal methods such as landfilling fly tipping. Therefore, this study aims report current management issues these in literature. As result, it was seen that investigated past researches can be classified under four main groups economics, environment, location, administration. Their pros cons were also revealed covering manner. have not been addressed together up...

It is well reported in the literature that more than 80% of shipping accidents are attributed to Human/organisational Error. Maritime community has realised despite all increased safety standards and technological developments, still occurring systems not resilient errors at various levels. The FP7 SEAHORSE project focuses on marine transport by addressing human organisational factors through transfer proven practices methodologies from air an effective, collaborative innovative manner. This...

Purpose Many construction companies use the diversification strategy to take advantage of its various advantages. However, previous studies on this have neither analysed management perspective nor considered pre-diversification stage companies. The purpose study is provide a detailed discussion about motivations and evaluate decision-making criteria at corporate level in industry from senior managers.

Accident investigation reports attribute the majority of marine accidents to human and organizational factors. Significant efforts are made eliminate these errors in maritime industry, but after each catastrophic accident, industry adopts a reactive approach which results new regulations an excessive amount paperwork. None provide desired safety level for industry. Currently, is starting implement proactive approaches has tried avoid reoccurrences by implementing appropriate culture. Safety...

In the current study, how planning and truck-mixer based waste amounts per 1 m3 fresh ready-mixed concrete (RMC) can be determined was presented. Toward this aim, formation process of RMC in construction projects first introduced a detailed manner, together with an in-depth literature review specific domain engineering management. Then, measurement procedure amount or coefficient revealed discussed as practical creative knowledge. Hence, useful realistic management perspective about cost...

The construction industry in developed and developing countries is almost always among industries with poor safety records. In decreasing the numbers of incidents, society's perception workers, who are central part occupational health issue, can be an important learning tool for these workers terms self-criticism. Therefore, responsibility presented by means cartoons. For this objective, seven cartoons exhibited International Construction Accidents Cartoon Contest held Turkey examined...

Bir ülkenin ekonomik kalkınması için kadın ve erkek iş gücünün etkili bir şekilde kullanılması önemlidir. Bu nedenle, teknolojinin sürekli gelişmekte olduğu günümüz şartlarında, ataerkillikten gelen eskiden kalma düşüncelerle kadına verilmiş olan roller içerisinde çalışma hayatında yer aldıkları meslek kavramlarının sorgulanması toplum gözünde yeniden inşa edilerek düzenlenmesi elzemdir.

The increasing environmental concerns and poor practices force construction industry to take some remedial measures for green sustainable built environment. Especially in urban areas, one of these is build roofs minimizing the pollution. In fact, present a number economic, environmental, social benefits. However, compared with traditional roofs, roof investments have high capital maintenance costs this makes potential investors hesitant about their applications. Therefore, study, benefits...

Construction industry in most countries relies heavily on small and medium enterprises (i.e., subcontractors). Therefore, today's highly competitive construction business, it is inevitable to select suitable subcontractors which physically execute almost all of production activities projects. In this context, through a proper selection process, their competences should be guaranteed as much possible. fact, becomes more significant issue if the project undertaken performed abroad. regard,...

Augmented Reality System Applications in Construction Project Activities S. Kivrak, G. Arslan, A. Akgun, V.

Therefore, an effort to further exploit benefits technology (IT), integration experiences and backgrounds...

Construction and demolition waste (CDW) are one of the major environmental problems, thus, should be considered as a significant component sustainable built environment.In theory, there three main options to overcome CDW generation problem such reducing, reusing, recycling.However, in practice, it is general behavior implement first two deal with many developing countries Turkey.The reason behind this may high initial investment cost compelling regulations concerning recycling plants.Hence,...

For the last decade, green buildings have created a new industry of ecological buildings. However, this is still newly developing and finds limited implementation opportunities when compared to traditional building industry. Therefore, for more preferable industry, strategic factors that can significant effects on should be comprehended. Based argument, present study aims (i) identify these factors, (ii) determine their importance levels, lastly (iii) find out current levels impact To...
