Abstract:
This paper presents a novel methodology which assists in automating the generation of time schedules for bridge construction projects. The method is based on a simulation of construction works, taking into account the available resources and the interdependencies between individual tasks. The simulation is realized by means of a discrete-event simulation software originally created for plant layout in the manufacturing industry. Due to the fact that the fixed process chains provided are too rigi...     »
