摘要: Simulation is a powerful tool for decision making. It provides an appealing approach to analyze and improve repetitive processes such as tunnelling. Notwithstanding this appeal, application of simulation real-life construction projects has been minimal. This paper describes the design, development, special purpose actual tunnel operations performed by City Edmonton Public Works Department. The implementation in industry was successful serves model others follow. decision-making process adopted developers personnel during are described. cost-planning template very useful making decisions evaluating feasibility projects. various alternatives compared conceptual estimates prepared proposed project be...
