  • Adaptive probabilistic neural network-based crane type selection system 
    Sawhney Anil; Mund A (Asce-Amer Soc Civil Engineers, 2002)
    Due to the central role of cranes in construction operations, specialists in the construction industries have cooperated in the development of structured methods and software for crane selection. Most of these software ...
  • Benchmarking the versatility of construction management education in a global perspective 
    Doloi Hemanta; Sawhney Anil; Iyer K (Australasian Universities Building Education Association, 2010)
    Benchmarking the versatility of construction management education in a global perspective
  • Cost of Risk Transfer: Pricing Agreements in Residential 
    Walsh Kenneth; Bashford H; Sawhney Anil; Witjakso Andre (American Society of Civil Engineers, 2004)
    Theoretical and computational studies of supply chains are confined mainly to buyer-supplier dyads. Evaluation of more tiers in the construction sector specifically is also rare, perhaps in part because short-term partnerships ...
  • Development of a framework for quantifying the environmental impacts of urban development and construction practices 
    Li K; Zhang P; Crittenden J; Guhathakurta S; Chen Ys; Fernando H; Sawhney Anil; Mccartney P; Grimm N; Kahhat R; Joshi H; Konjevod G; Choi Yj; Fonseca E; Allenby B; Gerrity D; Torrens Pm (Amer Chemical Soc, 2007)
    To encourage sustainable development, engineers and scientists need to understand the interactions among social decision-making, development and redevelopment, land, energy and material use, and their environmental impacts. ...
  • Hsm-Simulation-Based Planning Method For Construction Projects 
    Sawhney Anil; Abourizk Sm (Asce-Amer Soc Civil Eng, 1995)
    Construction projects are characterized by the random nature of the conditions under which they are implemented and by the dynamic use of available resources. Since site conditions vary randomly and resources perform a ...
  • Impact of Inspected Buffers on Production Parameters of Construction Processes 
    Sawhney Anil; Walsh K; Bashford H; Palaniappan S (Asce-Amer Soc Civil Engineers, 2009)
    This paper examines the production implications of quality control inspections conducted on the buffer between processes in a construction project by modeling the linkage between these processes. Inspection of partially ...
  • Implications of even flow production methodology for US housing industry 
    Bashford H; Sawhney Anil; Walsh K; Kot K (Asce-Amer Soc Civil Engineers, 2003)
    Production building in the residential sector is often described as the portion of the construction industry that is most like the manufacturing sector. In modem tract construction in the United States, a small number of ...
  • Improving inter-spatial comparison of construction costs 
    Walsh Kenneth; Sawhney Anil; Vachris Michelle (Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2006)
    Purpose ¿ The purpose of this paper is to compare construction costs between nations, which is an important part of international economic statistics. Methods employed for these comparisons to date have yielded questionable ...
  • International comparison of cost for the construction sector: Purchasing power parity 
    Walsh K; Sawhney Anil; Brown A (Asce-Amer Soc Civil Engineers, 2005)
    The importance of the construction sector in national economies around the globe and the global nature of the industry require a prudent international comparison of construction costs. From the view of international ...
  • International comparison of cost for the construction sector: Towards a conceptual model 
    Sawhney Anil; Walsh K; Brown A (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2004)
    Purchasing power parity (PPP) is often used by global organizations to perform international comparison of gross domestic product and other important economic indicators. Gross level comparisons include comparison of the ...
  • International Comparison of Cost for the Construction Sector: Towards a Conceptual Model 
    Sawhney Anil; Walsh Kenneth; Brown Audrey (Taylor & Francis, 2004)
    Purchasing power parity (PPP) is often used by global organizations to perform international comparison of gross domestic product and other important economic indicators. Gross level comparisons include comparison of the ...
  • Production equations for unsteady-state construction processes 
    Walsh K; Sawhney Anil; Bashford H (Asce-Amer Soc Civil Engineers, 2007)
    The production equation called Little's law has been applied to construction data recently. However, Little's law was derived for steady-state conditions assuming constant input and output rates and long production runs. ...
  • Production system loading-cycle time relationship in residential construction 
    Bashford H; Walsh K; Sawhney Anil (Asce-Amer Soc Civil Engineers, 2005)
    Production home building possesses characteristics similar to manufacturing processes, such as the construction of more or less similar houses repeatedly and a growing demand for mass customization of homes. As a result ...
  • Structural equation model for assessing impacts of contractor's performance on project success 
    Doloi Hemanta; Iyer K; Sawhney Anil (Pergamon, 2011)
    Contactor's expertise and performance play a significant role in successful delivery of a project. While clients strive hard to make the best decisions in selecting the right contractor for the right job, a clear understanding ...
