Abstract
There is a lack of an efficient systematic approach to the selection of appropriate construction methods for modern building systems. Identifying key criteria is necessary to help decision-makers in implementing the principles of this process. The present article was conduct for the same purpose. In this article, after reviewing of the literature, we found that construction experts’ opinions did not consider until now. Thus, we considered the opinion of experts in the field of the construction industry (Technical and executive specialists of the Afghanistan’s Ministry of Urban Development and Housing, Technical and executive specialists of the Kabul Municipality and Omran Houlding Group). For identifying key criteria, “64” criteria have been extracted that affect the selection of modern building systems and are classified into “six” economic, qualitative, social, environmental, executive and technical groups. A comprehensive study conducted through the distribution of questionnaires. The collected data were analysed using SPSS statistical software; the main criteria ranked by using “Friedman’s statistical test”. Based on the results of statistical tests, 18 criteria were determined and ranked as fundamental criteria. Therefore, paying attention to these criteria for the selection of appropriate construction methods for modern building systems can help experts in the country of Afghanistan.
Highlights
The new methods of the building is a relatively new term that used to reflect the technical advances in housing forecasting
Kamali et al [1] and Ren et al [2] found that different construction methods influence project performance in various ways and impact on the productivity of construction projects; deficient methods decrease the productivity of projects
To achieve construction project performance, there is a need for adequate information and knowledge to help construction managers to make good choices of construction methods
Summary
The new methods of the building is a relatively new term that used to reflect the technical advances in housing forecasting. The selection method is a multi-criteria decision-making process, Golabchi et al [8] and it is necessary to consider decision-makers of different factors in the relevant project (such as environmental features, access to force, etc.), our goals (reduce costs, more safety, etc.) Specify and choose a suitable method, Lovell [9]. 1, 64 the identified criteria reported along with their sources These criteria determined by a study of relevant research, along with inputs, revisions, and changes made by experts of Afghanistan’s construction industry, and based on the opinions of experts in the country's manufacturing industry in six groups of economists, qualitative, social, environmental, executive and technical and logistics
