A fuzzy synthetic evaluation of the challenges of smart city development in developing countries (2020)
Journal Article

Purpose: This study presents a fuzzy synthetic evaluation of the challenges of smart city realisation in developing countries, using Nigeria as a case study. By defining and delineating the problems faced by the country, more viable directions to att...

Violent behaviour on construction sites: Structural equation modelling of its impact on unsafe behaviour using partial least squares (2020)
Journal Article

Purpose: Work on construction sites involves individuals with diverse character, temperament,age, physical strength, culture, religion and experience level. A good number of these individuals are also alleged to involve themselves in substance and al...

Design for safety implementation among design professionals in construction: The context of Palestine (2020)
Journal Article

Design for safety (DfS), also known as prevention through design, is a prominent means for tackling work-related illnesses and injuries in construction. However, the available DfS studies in construction have paid very limited attention to developing...

Organisational attributes that determine integrated safety, health and environmental management capability (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Implementing separate Environmental Management System (EMS) and Safety and Health Management System (SHMS) can be costly for organisations and hence the advent of integrated management systems. The effective implementation of integrated safety, healt... Read More about Organisational attributes that determine integrated safety, health and environmental management capability.

An approach for integrating mixed reality into BIM for early stage design coordination (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Building Information Modelling (BIM) and its associated technologies have proved to be one of the most promising developments in Architectural, Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry. Over the past few decades, the AEC sector has been restricted... Read More about An approach for integrating mixed reality into BIM for early stage design coordination.

Attributes that determine the building information modelling capability maturity of quantity surveying practice (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

With more than 80% of all construction projects overrunning their budget, there is a need for more efficient management of the estimated 10% of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) that is expended annually on construction across the world. It has been propo... Read More about Attributes that determine the building information modelling capability maturity of quantity surveying practice.

Macro-maturity factors and their influence on micro-level BIM implementation within design firms in Italy (2020)
Journal Article

Based on conceptual models of macro-BIM adoption, several factors have been proposed as indicators of BIM maturity at the national level. Such macro-level BIM maturity indicators drive policy and the institutional imperatives for smooth adoption of B...
