Construction Management – Future Innovations, Methods, Techniques and Technologies

Dear Colleagues,

The management of construction projects can be a very complicated process, especially when there are too many construction companies and various parties involved. The progress of information technology, as well as decision support methods, in the fields of cost planning and time and risk management systematically pushes the limits of possibilities in the construction industry and the range of impact on the entire construction industry.

The implementation of the latest solutions is necessary for construction companies to achieve success in the industry and remain competitive in the global market. As advanced technologies developed, the integration of technologies has been adopted for promoting new technologies and methods in construction in recent years, such as building information modeling (BIM), simulation-based methods, or mathematical methods supporting decision-making.

It is necessary to use new trends and ideas in many areas of construction project management, such as costing, scheduling, safety at the construction site, and human resource management in various types of construction projects in all phases.

The aim of this Topical Collection is to provide a platform to explore the state-of-the-art knowledge, practical implementation, and cutting-edge innovations in the area of construction management in construction industry.

Survey and theoretical articles, as well as application papers, are welcome.
