Purpose Building information modelling (BIM) is increasingly being adopted during construction projects. Design and practices are adjusting to the new system. BIM intended support entire project life-cycle: design phases, also facility management (FM). However, BIM-enabled FM remains in its infancy has not yet reached full potential. The purpose of this paper identify major aspects order derive a fully process. Design/methodology/approach In total, 207 papers were classified into main...
Our aim is to examine the value of selected actor–network theory (ANT) elements in contributing development an expanded theoretical and empirical conceptualization collaboration industrialized building construction for housing sector. A review meta-analyses literature from different disciplines suggests that still commonly portrayed a limited way as strategy integration driven top-down manner by "convenor" human stakeholders ways privilege simplified notions coherence. We use specific ANT...
Traditionally, construction and demolition waste (CDW) materials have been considered to be unwanted, surplus, or wastage with zero value. Such a conceptualisation only embraces negative aspect, which underpins the disposal of reusable recyclable CDW in landfills, thus damaging circular economy environment. The scope this research was conceptualise potential non-hazardous waste, can used as resource for advancing sustainability built Thus, abbreviation ‘CEPCDR’ is purpose. study employs an...
Purpose This paper aims to report a comprehensive analysis of literature on stakeholder relationships towards identifying patterns within the off-site construction context. Design/methodology/approach Key scholarly databases were accessed and after filtering process, 74 relevant papers retrieved for analysis. The analysed using qualitative content scientometric techniques through application software Leximancer VOSviewer. Findings Research synthesis methods used in present study generate...
Abstract Purpose – Within the context of globalization, industrial competitiveness has played a decisive role in determining country's status world. Porter's Diamond Model is most popular theory currently available for explaining achievement and firm's competitive advantage. There been considerable discourse relation to purpose this paper critique refine consider theme sustainable development towards new conceptual model, merging theories concepts from internationalization, industry...
Abstract This study describes the development of a decision framework to support multi-disciplinary information and knowledge management model which focuses on integrated design delivery solutions for all construction supply chain actors. The was developed within context two national technology research projects in Australia. first used diffusion theory explain barriers enablers future adoption advanced such as building modelling (BIM). A grounded methodology deployed pathways innovative...

Purpose The study analyses collaborative practice in offsite manufacturing (OSM) housing supply chains, focusing specifically on chains driven by small and medium enterprises (SMEs). study’s analysis builds previous work where we argued that collaboration OSM construction comprises nine elements. In this study, the authors demonstrate empirically SMEs enact these elements distinct ways, foregrounding key over others. One core model two sub-models of emerge from our case studies....
Abstract This research investigates the widening gap between architects and clients associated problems in management of their relationship. Drawing theory from sociological psychological perspectives, it demystifies architect–client relationship by providing an account how profession's endeavour to maintain social distinction creating silent boundaries around itself has led increased distancing architectural community those not trained as professional architects. It raises several...
Exposure to various stressors has resulted in a significant problem of mental health among the construction workforce. A culturally intolerant environment may aggravate ill multicultural workplace. However, an underlying structural issue that not been sufficiently addressed date is influence crucial personal characteristics and environmental have on environment. This study aims examine role workers’ Data were collected using online questionnaire survey from 252 workers Australia. The...
Purpose This paper seeks to explain how clients deal effectively with challenges on private single dwelling projects by achieving learning. Design/methodology/approach Eight in‐depth interviews were conducted across five case studies of successful architect‐client relationships. The narrative inquiry approach was used establish the extent which achieved learning and describe ways dealt project challenges. Findings findings indicate that all studies, enabling them function increasing...
