Causes and impact of work related stress amongst construction health and safety managers (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Rogers, G., Manu, P., Mahamadu, A., & Dziekoński, K. (2017, November). Causes and impact of work related stress amongst construction health and safety managers. Paper presented at 22nd International Conference on Advancement of Construction Management and Real Estate, Melbourne, Australia

Work related stress (WRS) is a contributor to absence from work by workers in the construction industry. Whilst there has been research into WRS in the construction sector, there has been limited empirical research focussing on WRS amongst constructi...

Development of a decision support framework to aid selection of construction supply chain organisations for BIM-enabled projects (2017)
Thesis
Mahamadu, A. Development of a decision support framework to aid selection of construction supply chain organisations for BIM-enabled projects. (Thesis). University of the West of England. Retrieved from https://uwe-repository.worktribe.com/output/890601

With the emergence of Building Information Modelling (BIM), a critical criterion for the qualification of a suitable Construction Supply Chain (CSC) for projects is the ability of individual organisations to deliver through the use of BIM. Despite em... Read More about Development of a decision support framework to aid selection of construction supply chain organisations for BIM-enabled projects.
