RoadSim: Simulation Modelling Applied to Road Construction
Simulation is an approach which can applied to model construction operations and in particular at the construction planning stage. It can provide the necessary information to ensure that the resource allocation and construction methodology are appropriate to obtain the best possible project performance. In the particular case of road construction — characterised for the utilisation of heavy and expensive equipment and highly influenced by a number of risk factors — simulation can allow a thorough evaluation of all possible and feasible construction alternatives and provide analysis related to the compatibility between resources used in different activities. Also, very little simulation research work has been conducted in the area of road construction. In this context, the objective of this paper is to present a knowledge-based simulator that was developed in the course of this research that will be able to assist planners in the process of selection of resources, definition of the construction methodology, determination of the construction cost and time. The system is designated RoadSim and this paper describes briefly the respective features and capabilities, using an international contract as case study.
