Scheduling Optimization of Prefabricated Buildings under Resource Constraints

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Different from traditional construction project management, the prefabricated building (PB) engineering has a complicated restricted relationship in scheduling scheme, and the entire project is accomplished by multi-stage collaboration in construction process. Consequently, it is of great importance for project managers to make reasonable resources scheduling to avoid disruptions caused by resource unavailability. However, the poor interoperability and interactivity still results in diverse constraints, which limit the PB construction progress. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to establish a PB resource scheduling model that satisfying resource constraints and strengthening the PB dispatch time connection. The PB construction process is divided into assembly work space, logistics work space, and production work space where the construction time note is regarded as connection constraint and the three work spaces are restrained mutually. What’s more, the optimal total amount of resources determination technology is presented to arrange the resource schedule in assembly work space to ensure the optimal resource quantity with the goals of the shortest construction time and the lowest cost. The dynamic scheduling coordination technology is put forward to logistics work space and production work space where the resource schedule is arranged with time node constraint. A high-rise building is presented as an example to illustrate the implementation of the proposed model. Results show that the presented method could effectively solve the problem of resource tension problem under the goal of the lowest cost as well as alleviate the shortage of multi-resource scheduling.
