DELAY, COST AND WASTAGE POTENTIAL

摘要

Delays, cost and wastage control in the construction projects are often unavoidable circumstances. Delays, increase in cost and wastage in a construction projects occurs due to the insufficiency of man power, improper procurement of materials, defects in machinery, environmental aspects, lack of co-ordination, quality issues, sudden increase in cost, misuse of material etc. The modeling for delay, cost and wastage analysis in the construction of building assumes greater complexity due to the involvement of human perception in the evolution of decision making process. Further, the complex human perception is subjected to the physical surroundings, social environment and also to its own household structure over and above the economic constraints. The calculation of delay, cost and wastage in the construction of building has a major bearing on the human decisions regarding an importance of the construction activities. Both the decision processes are complex with higher degree of subjectivity involved and therefore call for the analytical tools which can imitate this behavior and bring the results close to the reality. In the present invention the Fuzzy Rules are developed to calculate potential of delay, cost and wastage in the construction of building.
