摘要: A recent study on construction productivity improvement at the University of Calgary revealed direct tool time (working time) Alberta’s commercial to be about 51%. This exposed inadequate communication and unavailability required information as main causes for a relatively lower time. Use technology (IT) overcome widely visible issues was extremely limited site level. Construction companies’ hesitation adopt new technologies well noted whereas workers expressed their willingness ability use IT The objective this paper is discuss concept application novel (called an booth) developed pilot tested project. presented in have been actual project resulting improvements productivity, worker satisfaction, efficiency...
