TIME BUFFERS IN CONSTRUCTION PROCESS SCHEDULING

Abstract

Potential applications of the CCS/BM method in the scheduling of continuous LSM (Linear Scheduling Model) construction activities are considered. The effect of time buffers – feeding buffers (FB) and project buffers (PB) – on total project realisation time (TT) is examined. Feeding buffers are found to have no direct full influence on TT if construction activities continuity is assumed. The influence of FBs on TT for other conditions considered in this paper still needs to be examined.
