“…Some of the developed tools are low tech, while some others use more advanced technologies. In the first category, there are the tools based on Microsoft Excel [24] provided by [25,26]. Although the use of a widespread tool like Microsoft Excel enables all construction practitioners to apply this approach, 2D spatial representation may represent a limitation and cause failures in the detection of spatial interferences.…”

In the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industry, many efforts have provided remarkable contributions to construction planning and control processes during work execution. Nevertheless, frequent coordination issues among stakeholders and difficulties in dealing with unexpected events can be explained by the complexity featuring the construction sector. Several approaches to deal with this issue were investigated in the manufacturing area, among which this paper looks at the holonic approach as one of the most promising strategies. This study first analyzes the more fragmented and dynamic nature of the construction industry as compared with the manufacturing one. Secondly, it suggests developing a process-based holonic construction management system based on building information modeling (BIM) and a conceptual architecture for manufacturing control called Product Resource Order Staff Architecture (PROSA). The process-based paradigm ensures exploiting the benefits of BIM towards the development of sustainable and efficient regeneration methods of the built environment. Subsequently, a first management system prototype was developed and tested for the purpose of renovation works management. For the first time, results from an actual implementation of PROSA were applied to a real construction site, and its feasibility was assessed using the data on the field. Key performance indicators (KPIs) evaluated during the onsite demonstration confirmed a good performance of PROSA and the presented holonic approach, which contributed to the overall success of the energy efficient refurbishment project.

“…It becomes static or plane planning when the use of time or space is ignored. Such separations are likely to cause potential time or space conflicts of construction activities, leading to various challenges such as safety, quality, delivery, and cost [3] [4]. For those reasons, the organization and control of construction activities from the perspective of the use of both time and space, namely spatiotemporal planning, has been gradually valued in recent years because it effectively integrates both of them [5][6] [7].…”

Designing a reasonable and efficient transportation system of temporary elevators from the perspective of spatio-temporal planning is beneficial for the successful completion of construction projects. Specifically, the determination of the service period and floor of temporary elevators and the consideration of the limited availability of time and space should be taken seriously. The spatio-temporal planning of temporary elevators puts forward higher requirements for the display of planning solutions due to the complexity considering both time and space. However, current display ways are generally abstract, low-dimensional, and static, and even when the 4D model is adopted, the display effect of spatio-temporal planning solutions is still limited. This research presents a spatio-temporal planning simulation of temporary elevators in construction using a game engine to address those challenges. The workflow of the spatio-temporal planning simulation divided into configuration and operation planning consists of three steps: 1) import data into the game engine platform, 2) generate the spatio-temporal planning simulation scheme, and 3) conduct the spatio-temporal planning simulation. The results of the experimental test show that the presented spatio-temporal planning simulation way is intuitive and convenient, various planning elements are clearly shown, and corresponding planning information is efficiently conveyed, which can effectively enhance the display effect of spatio-temporal planning solutions.

“…Estas mudanças têm proporcionado uma verdadeira revolução na sociedade, possibilitando ações antes inimagináveis a fim de melhorar a qualidade de vida, o controle, a vigilância entre outros aspectos. Em busca de uma gestão mais eficiente, os gerentes abrem espaço para novas abordagens, a fim de promover melhorias para o cumprimento das metas de produção (Brady et al, 2018;Mariz et al, 2019, Bascoul et al, 2020 Pesquisas têm apontado a importância de desenvolver métodos ou inovações tecnológicas que possam alavancar o desempenho da gestão da construção (Pérez et al, 2019;Alvarez et al, 2019;Pérez & Costa, 2020;Sawhney et al, 2020). No contexto brasileiro iniciativas têm sido implementadas pelo governo com o objetivo de colocar a indústria nacional no caminho desta transformação digital, a exemplo Decreto nº 9.983, de 22 de agosto de 2019 que tem como finalidade promover um ambiente adequado ao investimento em BIM (Building Information Modeling -conjunto de tecnologias e processos integrados que permite a criação, a utilização e a atualização de modelos digitais de uma construção, de modo colaborativo, durante todo o ciclo de vida da edificação: projeto, construção e funcionamento) e sua difusão no País (Brasil, 2019) e o Decreto N° 10.306 de 02 de Abril de 2020 que estabelece a utilização do BIM na execução direta ou indireta de obras e serviços de engenharia realizada pelos órgãos e pelas entidades da administração pública federal (Brasil, 2019).…”

A indústria da construção civil tem procurado se modernizar para acompanhar as mudanças tecnológicas que vem ocorrendo no cotidiano das pessoas, porém a falta de transparência no processo de construção leva a dificuldade de entendimento pelos operários e a problemas de comunicação entre os níveis tático e operacional. Este artigo tem o objetivo de discutir e apresentar a solução desenvolvida para facilitar a comunicação entre trabalhadores e gestores no canteiro de obras a fim de melhorar o entendimento das metas de trabalhos. Trata-se de uma pesquisa exploratória com abordagem metodológica Design Science usando o método o Design Science Research. A pesquisa foi dividida em três fases, a saber: (1) Compreensão, (2) Desenvolvimento, (3) Avaliações. O presente artigo corresponde a fase de desenvolvimento da solução, envolvendo análise de requisitos dos gestores e trabalhadores da construção civil a fim de elaborar um sistema web com interface gamificada. A partir das informações produzidas e da revisão bibliográfica desenvolveu-se um sistema gamificado. O contexto da construção civil evidência que os trabalhadores possuem carência de reconhecimento e têm baixa escolaridade. A interação com esses sujeitos indicou que a inserção de estratégias gamificadas poderia contribuir para a melhoria da comunicação. Os resultados apontam que a solução proposta pode minimizar estes problemas.
