RELATIONS BETWEEN PRECONDITIONS, CATEGORIES AND IMPACTS OF MAKING-DO WASTES

Abstract

Civil construction is known for its high production of waste and low productivity. Understanding the causes of making-do waste makes it possible to minimize waste in construction processes. This study aims to analyze possible causes and consequences among possible relations between prerequisites, categories and impacts of making-do waste in order to act more effectively in combating waste reducing the main problems identified that cause their occurrence. Some existing prerequisites can be determined: information, materials and components, and labor, are highly likely to occur. Concerning the categories, the following can be highlighted: component adjustment, sequencing, and storage. These combinations generally affect the seven impacts caused by making-do waste. The main contribution of this study was to analyze the possible causes and consequences of the relationship between prerequisites, categories and impacts of making-do waste. Using the dashboard developed in the Power BI platform, relations between the chosen parameters could be determined, and how prerequisites, categories and impacts interacted with other variables in the database.
