Abstract
The concept of time-cost relationship in construction projects was first introduced by Bromilow. Bromilow used the data of the superstructure projects completed in Australia in the creation of the proposed time-cost model (BTC model). The aim of this study is to determine the time-cost relationship of superstructure projects in Turkey. Time and cost data of superstructure projects completed between the years of 1999-2018 was used in the study. Data was grouped primarily on the basis of the intended use of buildings (individual buildings, educational buildings, hospitals, industrial buildings and social housing), and then time-cost relationships were separately determined for each group. In addition, the effects of the parameters such as exchange rates and the number of non-working days on the time-cost relationship were investigated statistically.
期刊介绍:
The scope of Teknik Dergi is naturally confined with the subjects falling in the area of civil engineering. However, the area of civil engineering has recently been significantly enlarged, even the definition of civil engineering has somewhat changed.
Half a century ago, engineering was simply defined as “the art of using and converting the natural resources for the benefit of the mankind”. Today, the same objective is expected to be realised (i) by complying with the desire and expectations of the people concerned and (ii) without wasting the resources and within the sustainability principles. This change has required an interaction between engineering and social and administrative sciences. Some subjects at the borderline between civil engineering and social and administrative sciences have consequently been included in the area of civil engineering.
Teknik Dergi defines its scope in line with this understanding. However, it requires the papers falling in the borderline to have a significant component of civil engineering.
