“…It also means marketers and manufacturers can use these elements to differentiate their products from the competition. Badraddin et al (2022) [32] studied to identify and categorize critical attributes for successful concrete recycling. After reviewing the literature and interviewing 15 industry experts, 89 experts with 6-30 years of experience participated in a questionnaire survey.…”

Reinforced cement concrete (RCC) is the most extensively used construction material in construction industries. The concrete consumption rate every year is about 3 tons per person [1]. By 2050, concrete production is expected to rise by 2.5% annually to 4.4 billion tonnes [2]. The quality of RCC construction is influenced by factors like ingredient quality, production techniques, strength, durability, workability, and homogeneity. *Author for correspondence This requires comprehensive and inclusive perception as per Indian standards (IS 456:2000). The quality of finished RCC construction is assessed through various non-destructive testing (NDT).In contrast, the quality of constituent materials [3] is evaluated through associated destructive testing or laboratory-based investigations. A comprehensive quality assessment of RCC construction is crucial for sustainability and assessing the effect of deviations in concrete ingredients and overall quality and the associated impact on service life and sustainability [4]. Quality consideration of RCC construction can

“…The Cronbach's alpha test was used to conduct the reliability test in this study. It is widely used in various research, particularly construction management-related research [69,70]. Because the analysis and discussions were done on a comparative basis, the test was performed on each group, given the divisions of the entire sample.…”

Building information modeling (BIM) is an emerging process for managing the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of a facility. While BIM has developed in diverse aspects, the lack of organizational BIM capabilities remains a barrier to its implementation across the global architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry. Accordingly, AEC organizations need to understand their organizational BIM capabilities and those of other organizations to realize the benefits of implementing BIM. This study examines the key criteria for assessing organizational BIM capabilities across two countries—Malaysia and Iran. For this purpose, the study compares the assessment criteria for BIM capabilities among the two countries based on the following elements: (1) criticality of the criteria; (2) degree of centrality of the criteria; and (3) underlying groups of the criteria. A systematic literature review of 26 articles and semi-structured interviews with BIM professionals provided nineteen criteria. A total of 121 and 126 BIM professionals evaluated the criticality of the criteria through a survey in Malaysia and Iran. The collected data were analyzed using the contextual disparities test (Mann–Whitney U test, Kruskal–Wallis H test, and rank agreement factor), network analysis, and exploratory factor analysis (EFA). The leading key criteria in both countries are “the company has the necessary infrastructure to implement BIM”, “the company has a good attitude towards new technology”, and “the company understands its expertise”. However, the subsequent key criteria differ between countries. Furthermore, while the level of agreement on the ranking of the criteria is at a neutral level, the Mann–Whitney U test indicates that the level of criticality significantly differs between countries for most criteria. There are also changes in the level of criticality of the criteria between countries. Finally, criteria with a high degree of centrality differ between countries. On the contrary, although the criteria slightly differ between countries, the overarching groups of the criteria are similar (i.e., the criteria are related to organizational BIM capabilities and organizational capabilities). Understanding these criteria can help researchers and industry practitioners develop the optimal tool for assessing organizational BIM capabilities for the local industry.

“…In addition to the SLR, 21 semi-structured interviews with industry professionals were conducted over the phone to gather factors affecting workplace well-being in building construction projects. This step is a common technique used in prior construction management works to elicit additional variables [38,39]. When interviewing industry personnel, interview forms are used.…”

This study explores the factors affecting workplace well-being in building construction projects. The objectives of this study are (1) to investigate the critical factors for workplace well-being in building construction projects, (2) to compare the critical factors between large enterprises (LEs) and small-medium enterprises (SMEs), and (3) to compare the critical factors between high-rise building construction projects and non-high-rise building construction projects. Data from 21 semi-structured interviews with construction industry professionals in Malaysia and a systematic literature review were used to develop a potential list of factors. Then, the factors were used to create a survey that was distributed to industry professionals. Data from 205 valid responses were analyzed using mean score ranking, normalization, the Kruskal–Wallis test, and overlap analysis. Fourteen critical factors were determined, including salary package, working hours, project progress, planning of the project, workers’ welfare, relationship between top management and employees, timeline of salary payment, working environment, employee work monitoring, communication between workers, insurance for construction worker, general safety and health monitoring, collaboration between top management and employee, and project leadership. This study contributes to the body of knowledge by identifying the critical factors for improving workplace well-being. The study findings allow researchers and practitioners to develop strategies to promote workplace well-being in building construction projects.
