Исследование превращений переохлажденного аустенита при ступенчатой закалке стали 20Cr2Mn2SiNiMo

Currently, step quenching of steels in the temperature range of martensitic transformation, including quenching – partitioning, has found wide application in the automotive industry. Step quenching technology is successfully used to increase a set of properties, which most often include temporary tensile strength and relative elongation. The authors carried out a dilatometric study of the supercooled austenite transformations occurring in the 20Cr2Mn2SiNiMo steel, when implementing various options of step quenching with holding in the martensitic region. It was found that after single-stage quenching, single-stage quenching followed by tempering, and two-stage quenching, primary martensite, isothermal bainite, and secondary martensite are formed in various quantitative ratios. Using X-ray diffraction phase analysis, the amount of residual austenite was determined during step quenching. It has been shown that two-stage quenching makes it possible to stabilise up to 14 % of residual austenite, in the structure of the studied steel, at room temperature. Research has revealed that 20Cr2Mn2SiNiMo steel is characterised by a decrease in the crystal lattice parameter of the residual austenite, with an increase in its content in the steel structure. Uniaxial tensile and impact bending tests were carried out, and the values of the mechanical properties were determined. It has been found that during two-stage quenching, higher strength and elongation values, with lower values of relative contraction and impact strength are achieved compared to oil quenching and low-temperature tempering. The study showed that, with regard to the structural reliability of machine-building parts, step quenching is not the optimal heat treatment mode for the steel under study. The best combination of strength, ductility and impact hardness is achieved after quenching and low-temperature tempering.

Technology Licensing Under Competition: Absorptive Capacity vs. Innovation Capability

Existing studies on technology licensing for quality-improving technology neglect the licensee's absorptive capacity or assume the complete absorption of technology for product quality. However, the licensee's absorptive capacity may significantly impact the benefit of technology licensing and has received extensive attention in practice and research. To address this gap, this study analyzes the optimal licensing strategy of vertically differentiated products by considering patentor's innovation capability and licensee's absorptive capacity, giving three types of licensing including fixed-fee licensing contact, per-unit royalty licensing, and two-part <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">ad valorem</i> licensing. We find that not only the patentor's innovation capability but also the licensee's absorptive capacity can significantly influence the optimal licensing strategy. The patentor may prefer per-unit royalty licensing and two-part <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">ad valorem</i> licensing to fixed-fee licensing. Moreover, technology licensing always benefits customers and society. Our work specifies the decision space for the patentor in evaluating the value of different licensing contracts and provides a new decision tool for choosing the optimal licensing strategy. We provide interesting management insights into understanding the optimal licensing strategy from the perspective of the patentor, customers, and society.

Clustering Sukuk Using the K-Means Algorithm for Allocation of Investors Based on Investment Risk Profile

The number of capital market investors has increased by 33.53% from 7,489,337 at the end of 2021 to 10,000,628 on 3 November 2022. One of the most popular Islamic capital markets today is sukuk with high yields, lower taxes and short returns. Investors consider four main factors that affect the issuance of sukuk, namely the type of sharia contract, yield, effective term, and nominal value of the sukuk. Investors will find it very difficult to decide on their investment because they will face a lot of data and variables. The solution to this problem can be done by perform multivariate analysis by grouping sukuk based on the investor’s risk profile, namely defensive, conservative, balanced, moderately aggressive, aggressive using the KMeans machine learning compile with phyton. Sukuk data used are from Financial Services Authority (OJK) and PT Kustodian Sentral Efek Indonesia (KSEI). From the results, 3 clusters were obtained cluster 1 (65 sukuk), cluster 2 (68 sukuk) and cluster 3 (20 sukuk). The results investor risk profile classifications are the defensive and conservative types investor can invest in cluster 3, the balanced type investor can invest in cluster 2, the moderately aggressive and aggressive investor can invest in cluster 1.

Estimated Value vs Final Contract Value in Works Public Procurement – What Causes the Discrepancy?

ANALYSIS OF CONTRACT CHANGE ORDER (CCO) COSTS IN BUILDING CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS

In every project implementation, one of the things that often occurs is change orders, namely changes to work that occur after the contract is signed by the work owner and implementing contractor. Most change orders occur due to the desire to change the design or related to budget adjustments by the work owner. The change order proposed by the contractor was due to differences between the design plan and the bill of quantities, the design lacked detail, the design did not suit field conditions, changes in implementation methods because the design was difficult to carry out, and difficulties in mobilizing materials according to technical specifications. Change orders that are not handled properly can potentially cause additional costs, additional time and decreased contractor performance. To minimize change orders, change order correlation analysis can be carried out using original data, with the parameters change order ratio (COR), change order ratio in addition (CORA) and change order ratio in subtraction (CORS). The data used in this study uses six original change order contract data on building construction projects which have initial contract data and cost data after the change order occurs. The results of COR, CORA, and CORS calculations are analyzed and described according to project conditions This study produced three conclusions, the average Index Change Order Ratio (COR) for the six research study object projects was 26%. This means that the 6 study object projects experienced a proportion change of 26% from the original contract value. The average Change Order Ratio in Addition (CORA) index for the six research study object projects is 16%. This means that of the 6 study object projects experiencing change orders, 16% were due to additional work from the original contract value. The average Change Order Ratio in Subtraction (CORS) index for the six research study object projects is 10%. This means that of the 6 research study object projects that experienced change orders, 10% were due to the work being less than the original contract value.

Praktik Jual Beli Ikan Sistem Jizaf Dalam Perspektif Hadis

Jizaf is buying and selling which is done by stacking goods without measuring, calculating and adding up the quantity. So it can cause uncertainty in the quantity. This article aims to understand the practice of buying and selling the pile system (jizaf) in Kaduara Barat Pamekasan. Based on this, there are two problems that are the main study in this research, namely: first, what is the practice of buying and selling fish using the jizaf system in Kaduara Barat Pamekasan. Second, what is the review of the hadith on the practice of buying and selling fish using the jizaf system in Kaduara Barat Pamekasan. This research is field research with a case study approach using qualitative methods. Primary data sources were obtained through interviews, secondary data came from literature review. Research result; (1) The practice of buying and selling jizaf in Kaduara Barat Pamekasan is carried out in several steps. First, the fishermen unload the fish, then transport them to land. Second, fishermen sort the fish. Third, the process of negotiating prices and payments. Fourth, the fishermen store the fish in boxes, and finally the contractor transports the boxes containing the fish. (2) Based on a review of the hadith, jizaf buying and selling transactions may be carried out provided they fulfill the legal requirements. Buying and selling fish using the jizaf system in Kaduara Barat Pamekasan in terms of harmony (contract, person with the contract, object and exchange value) has been fulfilled. However, in terms of the conditions for realizing harmony, there are things that are not appropriate. Namely, the object of the contract in the jizaf system fish buying and selling in Kaduara Barat Pamekasan contains elements that are not permitted, such as the occurrence of an element of fraud in the object of the goods being stacked.&#x0D;

Rent seeking and precautionary bidding in conservation auctions

AbstractThe paper presents a model to study reverse auctions for conservation contracts. A buyer elicits bids from multiple rent seeking and risk averse farmers. Conservation activities have ex post cost risk such that farmers only learn the true value of conservation contracts after the auction. The paper derives the optimal bidding function and shows that farmers have conflicting incentives when facing multiple sources of risk. Specifically, we show that farmers exhibit a form of precautionary bidding, that is, they increase their bids in response to an increase in valuation risk. We propose an approach to take the model to the data and recover structural risk parameters. The suitability of the approach to real‐world data is demonstrated through a Monte Carlo experiment.

Reinventing Formulas for Construction Project Delay Index Due to Management and Production

The objective of this study is to construct a precise formula for the management and production delay indicators that are integrated into Ms. Project's dashboard. Two simulation techniques, such as the manual formula computation and calculation integrated into the Ms. Project dashboard, were employed. Due to management and the production team's tardiness, the data were obtained through trial-and-error methods. Excel was used to analyze the data, and Ms. Project was used to enter the calculations. The research showed that the Ms. Project dashboard formula gave more detailed information about the construction project, including: (1) contract value; (2) actual progress value during monitoring; (3) value of plan progress during monitoring; (4) progress deviation; (5) cause of delay; and (6) management delay index and production delay index. The novelty of this study is that project delays have traditionally been held against the production party (contractor), whereas implementation delays have never been taken against the management party (consultant). However, using this method makes it evident who is responsible for a project delay, whether it comes from management (a consultant) or the manufacturing side (a contractor).

Practical Effect of Cervical Softening Decoction Combined with Delivery Ball Approach in Promoting Vaginal Delivery in Primiparous Women

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, Cervical Softening Decoction is derived from a modified “Wan Bing Hui Chun” formulation and consists of natural herbal ingredients such as Angelica sinensis, Ligusticum chuanxiong, Leonurus heterophyllus, and Cortex Daphnes. The decoction regulates Qi, promotes blood circulation, and facilitates fetus descent. Genkwanin is an active compound in L. heterophyllus and previous studies identified this compound in ethanolic extracts from rat uterine smooth muscle cell membrane fractions. To further understand the pharmacological activities of Cervical Softening Decoction, we examined genkwanin effects on isolated rat uterine contractions and protein expression in rat tissue with postpartum hemorrhage complicated by multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS). We also explored the practical effects of Cervical Softening Decoction combined with a birthing ball approach on promoting natural delivery in primiparous women. First, an isolated rat uterine smooth muscle contraction model was generated and three groups established: oxytocin group (0.002 U/mL), conventional genkwanin dose group (3 μg/mL), and high genkwanin dose group (6.0 μg/mL). Changes in uterine smooth muscle contraction and relaxation amplitudes were recorded before and after administration. Second, 50 rats were used to establish the following groups: (1) control group, (2) postpartum hemorrhage with MODS model group (MODS group), and (3) a postpartum hemorrhage with MODS treated with genkwanin group (genkwanin group). Western blotting was used to detect and compare tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin (IL)-6 protein expression levels in lung tissue from groups. Finally, 84 primiparous women admitted to our hospital between January 2020 and December 2021 were selected and divided into two groups based on their obstetric interventions. The control group (n = 42) received routine obstetric intervention, while the observation group (n = 42) received Cervical Softening Decoction and delivery ball interventions. Delivery conditions were compared across groups. In basic studies, genkwanin doses significantly increased contraction and relaxation values in isolated rat uterine smooth muscle (P &lt;0.05). Moreover, the genkwanin contractile effects at conventional and high doses were comparable with oxytocin. TNF-α and IL-6 protein expression in MODS group lung tissue was significantly higher when compared with the control group, while expression in the genkwanin group was significantly reduced when compared with the MODS group (P &lt;0.05). In clinical studies, the observation group showed significantly higher natural delivery rates and Labor Agentry Scale (LAS) scores when compared with the control group. In contrast, cesarean section rates, first and second stage labor duration, total labor duration, and Facial Pain Scale (FPS) scores were significantly lower in the observation group when compared with the control group (P &lt;0.05). In basic studies, genkwanin elicited significant contraction effects on isolated rat uterine smooth muscle and effectively inhibited inflammatory responses in rats with postpartum hemorrhage complicated by MODS. In clinical studies, combined Cervical Softening Decoction and delivery ball generated promising practical effects in promoting vaginal delivery in primiparous women. The intervention significantly increased the probability of a natural delivery, shortened labor duration, relieved maternal pain, and enhanced maternal control during delivery.

Optimal dynamic contract with Knightian uncertainty of ESG rating

In the context of “dual carbon” objectives, ESG investment concept has received wide attention. In this paper, based on stochastic systems and stakeholder theory, we analyze the interest requirements of subject stakeholders and investigate the agency conflict and coordination problems in the system. Combining with the contract theory, we construct a continuous-time principal-agent model with ambiguity aversion under ESG rating Knightian uncertainty. By the method of stochastic calculus in multiple priors, we derive the HJB equation for the optimal dynamic contract value function based on ESG rating Knightian uncertainty under incentive compatibility conditions. Then, for different ESG rating levels, through numerical simulation, we discuss the impact of the Knightian uncertainty degree of ESG rating on the optimal contract. The study shows that as the Knightian uncertainty degree of ESG rating increases, companies are more inclined to green development and the maximum expected return of principals decreases.

Quantification of tiny damage variation in asphalt mixture during the low-temperature thermal cycle

The performance evaluation of asphalt materials during low-temperature thermal cycles remains a challenge, particularly in quantifying the early tiny damage development and recovery processes. To address this issue, a high-sensitivity nonlinear ultrasonic method - the second harmonic generation (SHG) technique in the form of Rayleigh surface waves, is proposed to investigate these behaviors in asphalt mixture. The decrease in thermal contraction value and stiffness modulus with cycles verifies the damage behavior at the macro level. Turning points in crack length, crack density, and nonlinear parameter during the thermal cycle indicate the generation of cracks from − 20 ℃ to − 30 ℃ during the cooling process. The decrease of crack length and crack density in the heating phase demonstrates the recovery of asphalt. The nonlinear ultrasonic parameter β'(c) caused by crack is successfully separated from the total nonlinear parameter β', and the recovery index (RI)is defined to quantify the recovery behavior. Both of them are highly consistent with crack length and crack density. While the sensitivity index (SI) of nonlinear parameter is hundreds or thousands of times greater than other measurements of damage development. Furthermore, a qualitative correlation between the nonlinear parameters and plastic strain has been established. This breakthrough widens the scope of studying low-temperature weak damage in asphalt mixtures, moving beyond the confines of crack analysis.

The Wound-Healing Potential of the Endemic Plant Helianthemum canum (L.) Baumg: Preclinical Studies Supported with Phytochemical Profiling.

The study's objective is to clarify the probable mechanisms underlying the wound-healing properties of Helianthemum canum L. (Cistaceae), a traditional anti-inflammatory and wound-healing medicine. LC/MS-MS was used to perform phytochemical analyses on a 70 % methanol extract of the plant's aerial parts. In vivo, linear incision and circular excision models were used to evaluate the wound healing activity. For anti-inflammatory effect, in vivo acetic acid capillary permeability assay and in vitro Interleukin 1, Interleukin 6, and Interferon ɣ levels in LPS-induced FR skin fibroblast cell line were also evaluated. The extract significantly improved wound healing in experimental models, with tensile strength values of 27.8 % and a contraction value of 35.09 %. Histopathological examinations, hydroxyproline estimation, hyaluronidase, collagenase, and elastase enzyme inhibitory assays confirmed wound healing potential. Inflammatory cytokines were significantly inhibited in the LPS-induced FR cell line, with the highest effect seen on IL-6 (34.5±2.12 pg/mL). This study offered the first concrete proof that H. canum can be used to treat wounds by suggesting that the myricetin and quinic acid content identified by LCMS-MS analysis may be accountable for the effect of H. canum on wound contraction and hydroxyproline production.

Risk-neutral valuation of GLWB riders in variable annuities

In this paper we propose a model for pricing GLWB variable annuities under a stochastic mortality framework. Our set-up is very general and only requires the Markovian property for the mortality intensity and the asset price processes. The contract value is defined through an optimization problem which is solved by using dynamic programming. We prove, by backward induction, the validity of the bang-bang condition for the set of discrete withdrawal strategies of the model. This result is particularly remarkable as in the insurance literature either the existence of optimal bang-bang controls is assumed or it requires suitable conditions. We assume constant interest rates, although our results still hold in the case of a Markovian interest rate process. We present extensive numerical examples, modelling the mortality intensity as a non mean reverting square root process and the asset price as an exponential Lévy process, and compare the results obtained for different parameters and policyholder behaviours.

Left atrial strain predicts stroke recurrence and death in patients with cryptogenic stroke

Abstract Background Left atrial strain (LAS) has been widely studied as predictor of atrial fibrillation (AF) after cryptogenic stroke (CS). However, the evidence about its prognostic role in terms of stroke recurrence and death in this setting remains scarce. Methods From April 2019 to April 2022, 92 consecutive patients with ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack with ABCD2 scale ≥4 of unknown etiology were prospectively recruited. Echocardiography, including LAS was performed during admission. The primary outcome was the composite of stroke recurrence or death. Results Mean age was 77.5±7.7 and 58% of patient were female. After a median follow up of 28 months, the primary outcome measure occurred in 15 patients (16%). The primary outcome was more frequent in patients with diabetes (53% vs 21%; p=0.02), chronic kidney disease (33% vs 10%; p=0.034) and history of heart failure (13% vs 0%; p=0.025). LAS reservoir (LASr) and LAS conduct (LAScd) were lower in patients developing the primary outcome (21±7 vs 28.8±11%; p=0.017 and 7.7±3.9 vs 13.7±7%; p=0.007, respectively). On multivariate analysis, diabetes (HR 7.4, 95%CI 1.2-47; p=0.034)), LASr (HR 0.2, 95%CI 0.05-0.8; p=0.023), LAScd (HR 0.17, 95%CI 0.04-0.7; p=0.013) and LAS contraction (HR 0.2, 95%CI 0-05-0.8; p=0.025) were independent predictors of stroke recurrence or all-cause death after CS (Table). On long-rank test (using the discriminatory cut-off values of LASr &amp;lt;23% and LAScd &amp;lt;10%), LASr (p=0.009) (Figure 1) and LAScd (p=0.016) were associated with higher risk of the primary outcome. Conclusion Lower values of LAS reservoir, conduct and contraction are independently associated with higher risk of stroke recurrence or death after CS

Motor units involvement in diaphragm and intercostal muscles during supine and prone posture, and its relationship with oxygen saturation and perfusion index in healthy young female adults

Objectives: Due to gravity and non-gravity variables, human posture influences the distribution of ventilation and perfusion. Gravity enhances the air exchange and posture has an impact on the respiratory muscles’ activity. The goal of the study was to determine the role of neuromuscular activities in respiratory muscles throughout various respiratory states and postures, as well as the degree to which two different lying positions affected the perfusion index (PI) and oxygen saturation (SpO2) level in young, healthy female adults. Materials and Methods: Thirty sedentary healthy female college students, age ranges from 18 to 25 years having no history of pulmonary or neuromuscular diseases voluntarily cooperated and participated in this study. Each participant’s diaphragm and intercostal muscles underwent surface electromyography in the supine and prone postures. The heart rate (HR), SpO2, and PI were measured. Results: When in the supine position, the diaphragm and intercostal muscles both had greater mean root mean square and maximum voluntary contraction values, which is statistically significant (P &lt; 0.05). However, HR, SpO2 level, and PI between supine and prone postures show negligible changes. Conclusion: According to this study, prone posture is advantageous to supine posture since it requires less motor unit activation for proper breathing. Contrarily, the increases in chest cavity capacity are insufficient for the healthy adult female’s calm breathing to result in an increase in SpO2 and PI.

Supply Chain Management Practices, Information Advancement and Organizational Performance of Large Flour Milling Companies in Nairobi City County.Kenya

Companies not only must reestablish themselves to produce higher-quality goods and services, reduce waste, and adapt to the demand, but also to manage their supply chain management effectively as a result of the increasing number of competing companies growing both locally and internationally. As a result, the study sought to establish the supply chain practices affect the organizational performance of milling company listed Nairobi Stock Exchange. The specific goals will be to determine the influence of Green supply chain practices, supplier management practices, outsourcing practices, and Supply Chain Management on the organizational performance of milling company listed Nairobi Stock Exchange, as well as to determine the moderating effect of information technology on contemporary supply chain practices on the organizational performance of milling company listed Nairobi Stock Exchange. The theory of lean Contract Value, transaction cost theory, theory of supply chain constraints and resource based view theory were used in the study. A descriptive study design was used in this investigation. The study's target population was the 260 employees of the milling company listed Nairobi Stock Exchange, as defined by the Kenya Association of Manufacturers Directory, who worked in procurement, marketing, finance, security, ICT, or similar management. A structured questionnaire was used to collect data. A sample of 73 respondents was selected using Yamane (2012) formula. Descriptive statistics, inferential statistics was used to analyze the data. A pilot study involving 8 respondents was conducted to determine the data collection tool reliability. The study instrument had Cronbach’s alpha coefficients of between 0.756 and 0.836 on all study constructs and hence fit for the field study. Based on final results the study found that green supply chain practices, supplier management, and outsourcing positively and significantly influence the performance of large-scale flour processing firms in Kenya. Information advancement was identified as a critical moderating factor that enhances the relationship between these supply chain management practices and performance. Specifically, information advancement amplifies the effects of green supply chain, supplier management, and outsourcing on operational performance. The study also suggested that Flour processing firms in Kenya should fully embrace green supply chain practices, including waste management, efficient energy equipment, and the use of natural light where possible to improve sustainability and performance. The study also suggested that Firms should enhance supplier relations by engaging suppliers in product development, sharing information, and rewarding top-performing suppliers to foster commitment and motivation. The study also suggested that Firms should seek cost savings, efficiency, and sustainability when outsourcing services. This can be achieved through supplier performance evaluations and formal contracts. The study also suggested that regularly review information advancement strategies to optimize performance. This study contributed to supply chain management theory by confirming the relationship between supply chain practices, information advancement, and firm performance. It strengthens the theoretical framework and informs policy makers and large-scale flour processing firms about the importance of supplier management, green supply chain, and outsourcing in supply chain management policies and regulations. In practice, the study guides firms on how to enhance performance through effective supply chain management considering information advancement. The study suggested that Future research can explore the relationship between supply chain management and performance in other sectors beyond flour processing, such as agriculture, transportation, shipping, and manufacturing. Additionally, studies can investigate the impact of different moderators, such as dynamic capabilities, legal frameworks, government regulations, and competition, on the relationship between supply chain management and performance. This will contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of supply chain management dynamics&#x0D;

Evaluation of the Implementation of Contract Change Order as A Solution to the Problem of Contract Scope Changes

Construction industry activities are increasing. Construction industry players need to be prepared to face the possibility of changes of design planed that are not in accordance with field conditions. The purpose of this research is to identify, analyze the causes and impacts of Contract Change Orders (CCO) at the pre-construction, construction implementation, and post-construction stages with case study is Proyek Simpang Susun Balaraja Timur at Tol Jakarta – Merak, Kabupaten Tangerang. The research method used is descriptive and qualitative methods by conducting Earned Value Analysis and Fishbone Analysis to identify the causal factors and impacts of CCO so that efforts can be made to mitigate the performance of the construction contract from the aspect of quality, cost, and time. The results of the analysis show 3 factors causing CCO namely consultant factors, such as lack of planning preparation and non-compliance with field conditions, project owner factors, and contractor factors. The results of Earned Value Analysis with Estimate at Completion (EAC) calculations can be used to identify the need for additional contract value and additional execution time. On initial contract identification: Cost Performance Index (CPI) is 0.77 (insufficient costs with cost overrun – Rp. 52.502,111,631.83) and Schedule Performance Index (SPI) 1.21, means that Addendum 1 needs to be done with the results: CPI is 1.17 (the costs used are sufficient from the available fees), EAC is Rp. 189,848,751,106.02 with changes in the contract value is Rp. 222,017,999,900.65, SPI is 1.21 from the initial contract value Rp. 174,437,684,167.96

The shock of COVID‐19 and the shock of rapid vaccine development on the value of senior life settlement contracts

AbstractIn this paper, we develop a model that can capture how COVID‐19 and the subsequent rapid vaccine development against COVID‐19 impacts the value of pools of senior life settlements. The pandemic unexpectedly boosted the mortality rates of senior citizens who had prior diagnoses of certain health conditions. Our model accounts for the existence and concentration of these COVID‐19 comorbidities in portfolios of senior life settlements. It is the concentration of assets linked to the mortality rates of a group who is at elevated risk to COVID‐19 and who is also the primary beneficiaries of the COVID‐19 vaccine that we examine. We illustrate how the shock of the pandemic increases the value of senior life settlements and how the accelerated development and distribution of COVID‐19 vaccines moderated this increase. Our model is general enough to simulate the impact on other financial contracts that are linked to individual mortality rates. These would include life insurance contracts, annuities, and health insurance policies.

An analysis of safety practices for small, medium, and large construction projects: A resilience engineering perspective

The varied nature of the construction industry, involving projects of different sizes, poses significant challenges to improving its Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) performance. The existing literature identifying strategies for improving the performance of small construction projects has focused on a deterministic and reactive view of safety. However, recent theoretical advancements in safety criticize this view. Alternatively, a Resilience Engineering (RE)-based perspective is deemed suitable for construction projects to be adaptive in managing safety. However, none of the previous studies analyzed the prevalence of RE-based attributes within the construction industry and across projects of different sizes. This study has adapted a RE-based questionnaire to which 180 survey responses from site professionals were obtained. A concurrent triangulation mixed method was used to analyze this data, supplemented with 16 interviews and field observations from 27 building construction projects in India. The 'contract value' was used as a metric to aggregate the responses for three project types, i.e., 'small', 'medium', and 'large'. The study results indicate that most practices promoting RE-based attributes, such as Monitoring, Learning, and Anticipating, are neither prevalent in the industry nor are significantly different among projects of various sizes. The findings show that small and medium-sized projects may exceed larger projects in several RE-based safety practices, suggesting that pathways to improve safety for smaller projects may not necessarily be limited to emulating larger projects, as typically recommended in the literature. The study advances the understanding of RE-based safety practices and supports safety initiatives in all construction sites.
