Current condition and future directions for lean construction in highways projects: A small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) perspective

The aim of this study is to identify the parameters defining how Lean Construction (LC) is being implemented (current condition) and how LC can be further promoted (future direction) from a Small-Medium Sized Enterprises (SMEs) perspective. Although SMEs constitute the largest group in construction supply chains, LC, as an emerging phenomenon in civil construction project management, has been rarely investigated from an SMEs perspective. Also, overlooking the more macro factors like project governance and supply chain management, LC deployments have been mainly discussed from a production process perspective to date. After a review of the extant literature and 20 interviews with managers from the highways sector, a list of 31 current condition and 40 future direction statements were produced, classified under the delivery, process, training, project governance and supply chain related headings and used in a questionnaire survey with 110 responses. The current condition highlights problems like a short-term relations structure, competitive tendering mechanisms, fragmentation, problems in engaging with SMEs for LC, unstandardised LC techniques, and issues with convincing SMEs to deploy LC by demonstrating the business case on mutual benefits. Action items relating to the current project delivery structure were given the highest importance by the supply chain, alongside the LC training and project governance issues for the future of LC at highways SMEs. Additionally, a statistically significant correlation was identified among many future action items.     

建筑固废对GRC 性能影响研究

本文对建筑固废制备GRC进行了研究,通过物理性能、力学性能和抗冻性三方面对再生GRC进行性能表征,同时探讨了建筑固废的取代掺量对再生GRC各项性能的影响。试验结果如下:采用喷射成型工艺,再生GRC的力学性能在废混凝土10%,废尾矿10%和废砖1%取代掺量下达到最优,而后随着掺量的增加力学性能逐渐降低。建筑固废的掺入对再生GRC的物理性能没有明显影响。25次冻融循环后再生GRC没有发现冻融破坏现象,且质量损失在0.2%以下。

Why do individuals engage in collective actions against major construction projects? —An empirical analysis based on Chinese data

Collective actions against major construction projects are becoming common because of the public’s increasing civil rights awareness and environmental consciousness. Thus, it is important to explore the critical factors responsible for collective actions against major construction projects. This study initially developed 25 indicators inducing collective actions based on a comprehensive literature review. An empirical study with 127 samples was conducted using questionnaire surveys and semi-structured interviews from projects located in Central China. Furthermore, ranking analysis and factor analyses were implemented to conclude that collective actions in major construction projects can be explained by a six-dimension critical factor system: benefits to the public, characteristics of project performers, layout of projects, living quality of the public, perceptions of the public, and influence from the authority. This study contributes to government administration for collective actions against major construction projects and serves as a useful reference for further studies of this type.     

工程建设标准客观优先度评价研究

在工程建设标准的制定和修订过程中，如何科学地确定编制顺序一直是困扰标准管理部门的难题，采用传统方式“按需制标”，具有盲目性、主观性，容易造成标准在制定和修订过程中的互相重复、滞后与矛盾。为了保证标准制定和修订工作的协调性，指导标准体系中各标准的制修订顺序，引入复杂网络拓扑结构，将同一标准类型下的标准构成功能团，根据相互之间的关系形成复杂网络，采用剥落算法对其网络节点重要性排序，进而确定标准制修订的优先度。通过对建筑给水排水工程规范标准修订的实证分析，总结工程建设标准的网络拓扑优先度评价的算法模型，实现制定和修订顺序的自动计算，从而更加科学地指导标准的制定和修订工作

Entwicklung eines Transformationsmodells – Modularisierung schrittweise gedacht

For some years now, the process industry has been meeting the challenges of the markets with modular production and logistics concepts. This article presents this development process in the form of a four-stage transformation model. It is shown that the path towards modular production environments can be taken step by step. The motto is “evolution instead of revolution”. First, an overview of the state of the art of modularized production and logistics systems is given. Based on this, the article describes and classifies the four different stages of modularization.     

Study on the interfacial properties of active Ti element/ZrO2 by using first principle calculation

Ti element is an important active element in brazing Zirconia ceramic (ZrO₂) ceramic. Therefore, the interface bonding mechanism of Ti and ZrO₂ was studied by using first principles calculation. Two kinds of interfaces with different termination and stacking sequence were established, and the interfacial bonding mechanism was studied using work of adhesion (W_ad), electronic behavior and interface energy. The results show that in the O-terminated interface, Ti and O form a strong ion-covalent bond at the interface, and the W_ad can reach 13.61 J/m². In the Zr-terminated interface, Ti and Zr form a metal-covalent bond, and the W_ad is 5.56 J/m². At a temperature of 1123K, when the lnP_O2 is larger than e⁻¹⁷, the O-rich interface is more stable in thermodynamics. Therefore, under the experimental condition, the interface tends to form Ti-O compounds when ZrO₂ is brazed using Ag(Ti) filler metal.
