TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the utilization of Geographic Information System (GIS) technology to rapidly disseminate damage and failure mode data related to wood-frame construction collected in the aftermath of the Tuscaloosa tornado on April 27, 2011.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conducted a systematic literature review and thematic analysis to identify circular economy case studies in different cities around the globe that have considered systemic dimensions of CE and their interconnections and iterations.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors identify 29 project performance measures and 50 design activities across project phases to assess the influence of on-site design on project performance, and they reveal that projects with intensive onsite design strategies not only surpass projects with moderate or null onsite designs, but also exhibit similar levels of accomplishment.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a proactive intervention approach to leadership development undertaken by a major engineering and construction firm and determine the impact on sustained gain in leadership knowledge and skills as a result of the intervention.

TL;DR: The Predictability Index is introduced, a novel performance metric that also considers the project team’s ability to timely predict outcomes at completion and, based on the statistical analysis of retrospective data from 135 completed projects, identifies threshold values of predictability performance.
