TLDR
This paper presents a case study in which discrete-event simulation was used to quantify the impacts of a change in a highway construction project.Abstract:
Changes in the conditions under which construction operations take place disrupt projects and can have severe construction cost impacts that must be quantified. This paper presents a case study in which discrete-event simulation was used to quantify the impacts of a change in a highway construction project.read more
