Concrete Quality

Activity related to structural concrete work is still often found the opportunity of quality deviation from implementation factor and supervision factor, especially if the requirement of the concrete volume of structure every day is big enough. With the above background, the researcher conducted the observation with the core study on ”The Role of Related Party Project on Quality Control (Concrete Structure) and Project Performance Achievement”. That is related to the quality control of concrete in the implementation of construction work and studies that focus on the assessment of achievement of construction project performance. For data analysis (data processing) that is qualitative data and quantitative data, researchers use help the method of Stepwise Regression. The result of this research is very positive influence of Concrete Quality Control factors and the role of project related party influence to the achievement of Construction Project Performance, that is proved by stepwise regression test and hypothesis test, where Quality Performance (Fi = 21,758 > Ft = 2,060), Time Performance (Fi = 14,950 > Ft = 4,496), Cost Performance (Fi = 15,379 > Ft = 4,496). For Quality Performance is shown : coefficient of determination or R square = 0,876, influencing variable is implementation aspect (x1), and aspects of human resources (x2), with Y1 = 0,285 + 0,148.x1 + 0,071.x2. Related to Time Performance : coefficient of determination or R square = 0.537, the variable that influences is monitoring time schedule (x1), with Y2 = 2,166 + 0,415.x1. Related to Cost Performance : coefficient of determination or R square = 0.481, the influencing variable is the acceleration of implementation (x1), with Y3 = -0.741 + 0.958.x1. So If the project organizers feel that these variables have been fulfilled, then the performance of the resulting construction project will be better too.Keywords :Stepwise Regression, Concrete Quality Control, Construction Project Performance, Quality Performance.

The Impact

The success of a construction project is a widely discussed topic, even today, and there exists a difference of opinion. The impact of communication and conflict on project success is an important, but least addressed, issue in literature, especially in the case of underdeveloped countries. Miscommunication and conflict not only hinder the success of a project but also may lead to conflicts. The focus of this paper was to examine the impact of communication on project success with the mediating role of conflict. By using SPSS, demographics, descriptive statistics and correlation were determined. Smart PLS version 3.0 was used for confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), internal accuracy and validity estimates, hypothesis checking and mediation testing. The results showed that formal communication has a negative impact on the success of a construction project, resulting in conflicts among project team members, whereas informal communication and communication willingness have a positive impact on project success because people tend to know each other, and trust is developed. Task, process and relationship conflicts were used as mediating variables. It was found that task conflict effects the relations positively because project team members suggest different ways to do a certain task, and, hence, project success is achieved. On the contrary, process conflict and relationship conflict have a negative impact on communication and project success. Both of these conflicts lead to miscommunication, and project success is compromised. Hence, it is the responsibility of the project manager to enhance communication among project team members and to reduce the detrimental effects of process and relationship conflict on project success.

Moderating Role

Parental warmth plays an important role in the development of adolescents’ physical and mental health. There are numerous empirical studies indicating a relationship between parental warmth and prosocial behavior among adolescents, although the underlying mechanisms of this association remain unclear. Adopting a longitudinal design across two time points, the present study proposes a moderated mediation model to explore the mediating role of gratitude and the moderating role of the school climate between parental warmth and prosocial behavior. The sample consisted of 943 participants (483 boys and 451 girls) who participated in the second assessment and completed questionnaires assessing gratitude, school climate, and prosocial behavior in April 2019. Their parents participated in the first assessment and completed a questionnaire pertaining to parental warmth in October 2018. After controlling for the gender and age of the adolescents, the results showed that the positive association between parental warmth and prosocial behavior is mediated by gratitude, and school climate does play a moderating role in the second half of the mediating path. Specifically, the school climate can play a protective role in adolescents with low levels of gratitude. For adolescents with less gratitude, a strong school climate can promote more prosocial behaviors and can effectively alleviate the negative prediction of low levels of gratitude. This study provides a theoretical explanation for the generation of adolescents’ prosocial behavior and provides theoretical guidance for the interventions of schools and parents.
