My research primarily focuses on enhancing the efficiency of project planning while integrating safety and cost considerations. Specifically, my work addresses the following areas:
Safety Climate in Construction Enterprises – Analyzing factors affecting construction site safety and accident prevention.
Optimizing formwork system design – Researching optimization techniques for formwork design to reduce material usage while maintaining structural integrity.
Optimization and Control of Schedules – Enhancing planning methodologies, particularly Location-Based Scheduling (LBS) and Last Planner System (LPS).
Construction Engineering & Management – Covering topics such as project scheduling, risk management, and cost estimation.
Earthworks and Process Optimization – Studying efficiency improvements in earthmoving operations and resource allocation.
Sustainable Transportation and Road Safety – Investigating strategies to integrate sustainability principles in transportation infrastructure projects.
Highway Work Zones Optimization and Safety – Focusing on improving safety, mobility, and cost efficiency in highway maintenance, rehabilitation, and reconstruction.
