HUANG Department of Construction Management, Hwa Hsia Institute of Technology and Commerce, 111 Hwa Hsin Street,Chung Ho City, Taipei Hsien, Taiwan, Republic of China Received 13 February 2021。 accepted 4 March 2021 In Taiwan, contractors are being specialized in certain types of construction in an increasingly petitive environment and this specialization requires some scheduling models to provide better scheduling results for each type of construction. A new practical method, GraphicalBased Multistage Scheduling Method (GMSM),for scheduling RC building superstructures is presented herein. From the analysis of characteristics and construction custom of RC buildings, four constraints, (a) down–up construction, (b) building inspection, (c) reuse of beam forms, and (d) reuse of slab forms, can be established. The GMSM is developed utilizing a graphicalbased method and the concept of resource reuse, and the general form of the GMSM to be facilely implemented in any worksheet software is derived as well. The results of this study provide some quantitative information as a useful guide for scheduling RC building superstructures. Keywords: Multistage scheduling, repetitive project, RC building, GMSM Introduction In Taiwan, contractors are being specialized in certain types of construction in an increasingly petitive environment and this specialization requires some scheduling models to provide a better scheduling for each type of construction. The majority of highrise buildings located in urban areas in Taiwan are RC structures. It is deemed crucial for highrise buildings that a scheduling model for this type of construction can not only increase profits but also reduce the impact on urban traffic. Of the highrise buildings constructed to date, the work planning technique has been 山東建筑大學(xué) 畢業(yè) 設(shè)計 外文文獻及譯文 2 monly adopted in scheduling. The Critical Path Method (CPM) is the most popular one。 for instance, prevalent scheduling software such as MS Project, Primavera Project Planner, etc., were developed based on CPM. However, assuming that all activities are independent, the CPM does not take into consideration the resource reuse where there is repetition of identical activities on every floor. O’Brien (1975) proposed that highrise building be divided into two categories: (1) nonrepetitive works, such as earthworks, foundations, and nontypical floor plans。 and (2) repetitive works, such as superstructures with standard floor designs. In the former category, CPM is utilized to execute scheduling. For the latter, a scheduling model suitable for repetitive construction has to be developed. Reda (1990) and Cole (1991) also demonstrated the necessity of scheduling for repetitive projects. This study, according to O’Brien’s suggestion, is to develop a graphicalbased scheduling method applicable to repetitive projects of RC building superstructures so that the most popularly practiced construction method in Taiwan, sitecast concrete structures with wooden forms, may be in line with it. Literature reviews The theoretical scheduling approach of repetitive projects is based on the principle of ‘Assembly Line Balance’, in which there are two premises: (1) work continuity for each
