Regression model for predicting productivity of RC slab concreting process

Abstract

This paper provides a model that will ensure effective management of concreting process already at the planning stage, by predicting productivity to reduce costs and shorten the project completion time. Eighty-one RC slab concreting processes were monitored and registered on eight building construction sites. The factors that may affect productivity were identified and a multiple linear regression method was used to develop models for predicting productivity and estimating duration of the slab concreting process.
