At the 14th annual conference in the International Group for Lean Construction in 2006 the authors presented the concept of construction as a process being fed by a number of flows out of which one is the critical one deciding the speed with which th... Read More about Construction physics.

Models and metaphors : some applications of complexity theory for design, construction and property management (2007)
Presentation / Conference
Rooke, J., Molloy, E., Sinclair, M., Koskela, L., Kagioglou, M., Siriwardena, M., & Siemieniuch, C. (2007, May). Models and metaphors : some applications of complexity theory for design, construction and property management. Presented at CIB World Building Congress: Construction for Development, Cape Town International Conference Centre

Complexity thinking may have both modelling and metaphorical applications in the design, construction and servicing of the built environment. In production theory, queuing and variation have been central in generating improvement initiatives. The com...
