e-Society: A Community Engagement Framework for Construction Projects
A majority of construction projects often have a significant impact on the surrounding neighbourhoods and the environment at large. In city scale infrastructure projects, this impact can be detrimental to project success. The affected populations often have concerns and more importantly local knowledge relevant to the project. Capturing and integrating this feedback enhances project sustainability. This integration is a feature of smart city initiatives that have increased collaboration between regulatory bodies and project planners. However, the community has not been able to effectively engage in this process. Accordingly there is a need to facilitate two-way communication to promote community involvement beyond the capabilities of a smart city; this will be achieved through e-Society. An e-Society boosts citywide sustainability by contributing to an expanding pool of knowledge. This research investigates the use of semantic and social web technologies and Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) to facilitate public engagement in construction projects. The proposed framework features a core ontological model that is integrated with web-based middleware. It will contribute to the sustainability of construction projects through enhanced two-way communication and enriched public participation.
