| Summary, etc. | Although many studies have been undertaken on factors influencing delays, cost overruns, productivity and safety performance, etc. and problems in specific types of projects, these studies seldom discuss common and general problems of construction projects. Thus, comprehensive studies on these problems and respective solutions are essential. The first part of the research is to gain insight into problems and success factors pertinent to large construction projects in Vietnam. The research identifies components mainly responsible for the problems as (1) incompetent designers/contractors, (2) poor estimation and change management, (3) social and technological issues, (4) poor site issues, and (5) improper techniques and tools. The components for the success of the large construction projects are (1) comfort, (2) competence, (3) commitment, and (4) communication. The second and major part of the research is concerned with understanding and use of project dynamics in order to achieve successful management of large construction projects in today's ever-evolving business environment. This research investigates the impacts of dynamic project structure on performance of a road tunnel project with a focus on the influences of resource reallocation in terms of resource quantity and characteristics, overtime reduction and material incentives. An applicable simulation model of a large construction project was built using system dynamics methodology. The model was calibrated to a road tunnel project to investigate its dynamic problems and to formulate and evaluate practical policies to improve its performance. In order to considerably improve performance and to be able to adapt to different scenarios, six integrated policies combining the individual policies having the most potentials were evaluated. The result reveals that reasonable increases of manpower and equipment, material incentives and/or one or two of them combined with no-overtime are the most effective policies for the case study project. |
