Duration as the Sixth Dimension of the Built Environment Travel Behaviour Framework
The built environment (BE) plays a central role in shaping everyday mobility patterns and determining how physical activity (PA) is integrated into daily life. Foundational BE frameworks such as the 5Ds (density, diversity, design, distance to transit, and destination accessibility) have shaped policy and planning worldwide. However, these frameworks remain predominantly spatial and overlook temporal dynamics. This review addresses this omission …
Impact of responsible leadership on construction employees’ pro-environmental behavior: Exploring the mediating role of key variables
Employees' pro-environmental behavior is crucial to the effectiveness of an organization's sustainability efforts and environmental management strategies. Despite its importance, the role of responsible leadership in shaping construction employees' pro-environmental behavior has received limited scholarly attention. This research contributes to the literature in two ways: (1) by examining the direct impact of responsible leadership on employees’ …
Barriers to adopting circular procurement in the construction industry: The way forward
Circular Economy (CE) is a necessary intervention for enabling resource efficiency, energy conservation, waste minimization, and sustainability within the construction industry (CI). Among its many facets, circular procurement (CP) is a nascent concept that enables CE in CI. Despite the extensive literature and review studies conducted on CE and its intricacies, critical studies documenting the barriers to the adoption of CP within the CI remain …
Quantifying the cost of quality in construction projects: An insight into the base of the iceberg
Construction projects are complex endeavors where achieving higher quality standards is challenging due to the intrinsic difficulties and dynamic quality management processes. Several quality management techniques exist to overcome quality concerns, such as the cost of quality (COQ). However, implementing COQ in building construction is challenging due to the absence of a comprehensive quality cost-capturing system. Several studies have tried to …
Forecasting Construction Cost Index through Artificial Intelligence
This study presents a novel approach for forecasting the construction cost index (CCI) of building materials in developing countries. Such estimations are challenging due to the need for a longer time, the influence of inflation, and fluctuating project prices in developing countries. This study used three techniques—a modified Artificial Neural Network (ANN), time series, and linear regression—to predict and forecast the local building material …
Urban Overheating Assessment through Prediction of Surface Temperatures: A Case Study of Karachi, Pakistan
Global climate has been radically affected by the urbanization process in recent years. Karachi, Pakistan’s economic hub, is also showing signs of swift urbanization. Owing to the construction of infrastructure projects under the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) and associated urbanization, Karachi’s climate has been significantly affected. The associated replacement of natural surfaces by anthropogenic materials results in urban overheati…
Managing smart cities through six sigma DMADICV method: A review-based conceptual framework
Smart cities are complex endeavors that present several management challenges. The current study proposes a conceptual framework based on Six Sigma for managing smart cities. DMADICV is a novel method proposed in the current study for Six Sigma. The proposed DMADICV framework consists of six key constructs: Define, Measure, Analyze, Design, Improve, and Control & Verify. These constructs are used as layers in smart cities, and relevant literature…
