RPM: RETETITIVE PROJECT MODELING

This paper proposes a repetitive project model (RPM) which is a unified approach for modeling repetitive construction projects, and incorporates a network technique, and an analytical technique. The network technique is the activity on a node network, where activities are represented by nodes and dependencies between activities and their dependencies needed to complete a typical stage of a repetitive project. RPM uses a linear program to solve the mathematical formulation, and flow line curves to present the results graphically. The advantages of RPM are noted.
