Partial Simulation Model (PSM) Development for Productivity Analysis on Curtain Wall Operations in High-Rise Buildings
High-rise building construction demands precise planning prior to actual operation. High-rise building construction has widely been planned in urban area. Curtain wall operation is one of important and fundamental operations in high-rise building construction. Curtain wall operation is composed of various activities. Precise planning is required for the effective management of such operation. Construction simulation technique has been considered an appropriate methodology for estimating construction performance which is required for the effective management of the project. However, simulation technique revealed serious limitations. Simulation technique has difficulty in preliminary modeling and application of changed conditions. This paper suggests a preliminary study for the research that overcomes traditional simulation technique limitations focusing on curtain wall operations.
