The Starting Point

The Starting Point What I Learned from Neuroscience Research and a Stubborn Superintendent Neuroscience Researchers can observe the human brain at work in real-time. That sounds like science fiction, but that’s real. It also happens to be the best, most modern, and profitable method for managing construction projects. With my background in plumbing and mechanical construction, I was excited by the idea that this breakthrough in cognitive research would finally allow me to know exactly what the bloomin’love-of-gracious my superintendent was thinking when he stopped working, left the job site, and drove to the supply house to pick up: - One (1) 1” copper tee - One (1) 1” x ¾” fitting reducer - One (1) 1” x ½” fitting reducer …when I had already ordered: - One (1) 1” x ¾” x ½” copper reducing tee. Okay, so maybe I’ll never ...

An Opportunity to Initiate - (2nd in a Series)

An Opportunity to Initiate (2nd in a Series) Getting into the details regarding the advancement of blockchain technology in the construction industry In previous articles , we've written about the high-level concepts that marry construction's current struggles and blockchain technology's opportunity to address them. In this article we continue to dig into the details of just how the implementation could take place. Specifically, we are going to take a look at how one of construction's most influential and yet vulnerable institutions, The American Institute of Architects, can step up to the proverbial plate. Doing so could be a very large step for the use of blockchain technology in the construction industry. To begin, there’s a critical functioning of blockchain technology that needs to be understood. Specifically, we need to discuss the technical mechanism that maintains the functioning of a blockchain. “Node” is a term that ref...

Additive vs Deductive Project Management

How we are tracking progress has everything to do with our ability to manage uncertainty. The purpose of this article is to introduce concepts of additive and deductive manufacturing as models for approaching project management strategies in the construction industry. While additive manufacturing, a branch of which is known as 3-D printing, is quickly making its way into the construction industry; this article is going to look at the differences between additive and deductive in terms of their systemic inferences rather than their technical differences. By the end of this comparison, you should understand the concepts "Decision Date" and "Additive Project Management", and well as understand the values of each. Deductive manufacturing is the process of beginning with a solid piece of raw material, then slowly removing strategic amounts from strategic locations until a member, tool, part, or product is produced. On the other hand, additive manufacturing...
