  1. 6. A simulation-based approach for systematic analysis of workflow during the construction of in-situ concrete frames

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för bygg- och miljöteknologi

    Author : Robert Larsson; Martin Rudberg; [2020]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The construction workflow of in-situ concrete frames in multi-storey residential buildings is highly complex and dynamic. Discrete-event simulation (DES) offers capabilities to model and analyse such complexity. READ MORE
