The need for sustainable built environment is pressing; an urgency that spans
environmental, economic and social values of sustainability. Since late 1980s, the Lean …

The challenges of adopting and implementing lean construction (LC) have led to substantial
but isolated research studies concerning the relevant barriers, enablers, and implications …

One way to encourage adoption of prefabrication and off-site manufacturing (OSM)
techniques, such as modular construction, is to improve the efficiency of site operations …

The construction sector consumes a massive amount of resources, produces a large volume
of emissions, and generates large-scale waste. Earlier studies considered green, lean, and …

Purpose Lean construction provides innovative practices to manage construction projects
while reducing waste and improving performance. This paper aims to explore the current …

Purpose This research seeks to evaluate the impact of applying lean construction principles
on the performance of reinforcement operations using a discrete-event simulation (DES) …

This study highlights the findings of an empirical study to investigate critical waste factors
(CWFs) affecting the performance of construction projects. Twenty-four CWFs were identified …

Although lean production (LP) is usually associated with complexity reduction, it has been
increasingly applied in highly complex socio-technical systems (CSS)(eg healthcare), in …

Lean manufacturing (LM) applies different tools that help to eliminate waste as well as the
operations that do not add value to the product or processes to increase the value of each …

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to propose a method for assessing the lean
construction management performance (LCMP) of engineering projects using the analytic …
