Diagnostic System for Preparing Decision Tree Model to Identify the Constructive Acceleration in Construction Projects.

الملخص

Acceleration involves many changes in the allocation of resources which may lead to loss of productivity. In the case of the extension of time being uncertain, the contractor is faced with difficulties in resolving this problem. Acceleration measures involve additional costs to speed up the construction process. The contractor should always ensure that there is either an agreement or an express instruction to pay such costs. This research aims to identify the major elements of acceleration and find the causes that lead to giving the decision to take order of acceleration, and this research also aims to build a model tree to identify the types of acceleration and cases of taking the possible compensation of costs. The researcher presents a decision-making tool by using a diagnostic system developed by using (the Vanguard software system) to enable engineers to give an appropriate decision by using the Decision Tree Model. The vanguard system is specifically designed to perform a wide range of tasks required in business decision analysis. Vanguard combines decision-making technology with analysis methods to create diagnostic system applications.
