• Durability indicators of OPC concretes subject to wick action 

  Dias, WPS [Article-Full-text]

  Durability indicators for six OPC concrete mixes were obtained from wick action testing on concrete cylinders placed in water and a sodium chloride solution of concentration similar to sea water. Although 49 weeks of ...
• Flow of estimating data in Sri Lankan building contractor organizations 

  Kodikara, GW; McCaffer, R [Article-Full-text]

  When an estimator prices a bill of quantities, s/he collects, generates and assembles data (estimating data) for the purpose of establishing the cost of constructing the project. The data generated could be used by the ...
• The use of Bills of Quantities in building contractor organizations 

  Kodikara, GW; Thorpe, A; McCaffer, R [Article-Full-text]

  The prime purpose of the Bill of Quantities (BQ) is to enable all contractors tendering for a contract to price on exactly the same information. Subsequent to this, it is widely used for post-tender work such as: material ...
• Analytical approach for economic risk quantification of large engineering projects 

  Russell, AD; Ranasinghe, M [Article-Full-text]

  A consistent,four moment based approach for quantifying time and economic risks is presented. The goal is to produce a computationally efficient tool that can be used to explore economic feasibility and tradeoffs between ...
• Analytical approach for economic risk quantification of large engineering projects: validation 

  Ranasinghe, M; Russell, AD [Article-Full-text]

  Validation and the computational efficiency of an analytical alternative to Monte Carlo simulation for quantifying risks in project performance measures such as time, cost, net present value and internal rate of return are ...
