Monitoring and Forecasting in Construction Projects Using Time Buffer
Abstract: The key to project management is effective performance monitoring and forecasting. The existing methods using input- output cash flow, earned value, etc. do not differentiate between work done on the critical path and work done on non-critical paths. Such methods mask the real situation and mislead the project team because progress on one path often compensate for the delay in other. The paper proposes a more effective method to facilitate …

Influence of Recycled Coarse Aggregate on Properties of Concrete
Abstract: This study focuses on the influence of recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) on properties of concrete. Five different mixtures of RCA replacement comprising 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100% RCA were used. It was found that workability, saturated bulk density, compressive strength and flexural strength decreases with increase in RCA content in concrete. 100% manually RCA concrete passed the 17 kN/m2 compressive strength limit generally acceptable for concrete work of non-high …
