Simulation model for resource-constrained construction project
Abstract: Repetition of the same processes on different objects or units of a construction project and their concurrent execution makes it necessary to use the same limited resources at the same time. Managers prefer simple heuristic priority rules to scheduling construction activities, but there is not one the best for all projects. In addition that the experience from deterministic scheduling problems and priority-rule methods cannot always be directly transferred to stochastic environment. The paper presents the pure reactive simulation model for planning construction projects in random conditions, taking into account the availability of renewable resources. Conducting simulation tests allows for various priority rules to determine the distribution of construction project duration and evaluate the robustness of the schedule. The paper analyzes the effectiveness of the selected priority rules in a pipe line project. In the analyzed project, the Dynamic Minimum Slack rule ensures the lowest average duration of the project in random conditions and the highest quality robustness. The analysis of the simulation results can help the construction manager to choose the procedure ensuring the timely completion of the construction project in the stochastic environment.
