We select organization on the basis of lowest bid offered in a tender for particular contract having only the knowledge of reputation of work and the rate offered for the tender by the organization at the least we offer the contract to the organization. We do not pay much attention towards the methodologies adopted in solving the problems that arise the various sector in organization. So, there is an urge in finding out the functional efficiency of an organization. In the present scenario experts are trying out better solutions or enhancing organizational effectiveness. Concepts such as total quality management, reengineering, partnering, conformance to ISO standards, and other emerging management strategies are making headlines. However all of the techniques stress measurement and continuous assessments how the firm organized as important steps in improvement. Therefore it is clearly becoming essential for construction firms to develop valid methods of assessing and prediction their level of organizational effectiveness and hence achieve consistency in the projects performance. For that we need a novel approach for assessing the efficacy of the system used. In any organization the quality and the productivity depends upon the effectiveness of the systems implemented in the organization. So, it becomes necessary for evaluating the functional capability of the organization. We propose Artificial Neural Network (ANN) as decision aiding tool for evaluating the effectiveness and thereby reducing the flaws incorporated by the other techniques in use.","PeriodicalId":437898,"journal":{"name":"The Asian Review of Civil Engineering","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121796726","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We want to find out the effectiveness of such programs whether it would be useful to other construction workers, particularly women coolie workers. With these objectives, we prepared and administered a questionnaire to construction workers, supervisors and others. The questionnaire use items with five point Likert scale, covering barriers of skill development of general and construction workers, training environment of female construction workers, cost of training and training methodology adopted in the model training program. Consolidation and comparison of feedback based on gender show that perceptions of female and male are very similar in many cases. There are few items where the differences in their perceptions are significant. The findings are that female construction workers can be given proper motivation, improve their literacy and numeracy, train them in trades of their liking, and provide practical training near or at their work places with the help of supervisors and engineers. Cost of training and sharing of the cost are important issues. We recommend 15- days compulsory training every year to every female worker of construction industry. The S-REACT training program is a baby step solution addressing some of the concerns of skill development of female workers and coolie workers.","PeriodicalId":437898,"journal":{"name":"The Asian Review of Civil Engineering","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115161783","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The process involved 2D orthogonal down-cut milling with the application of two dimension thermo mechanical plane strain model. The updated Lagrangian formulation was used where cutting simulation does not involve element separation but remesh automatically when element distorted critically. AISI1055 mild steel properties were used as the comparison. Various types of friction models were adopted in obtaining precise results. Predicted cutting force and cutting edge temperature are validated against corresponding experimental values by previous researchers. From the simulations, the shear friction model of 0.8 is the best friction model where 10% errors were obtained for comparison mild steel AISI1055 FEA results with the experimental approach for increasing radial depth. Lower cutting force predicted for laser sintered materials compared to AISI1055 due to lower Young modulus. Cutting edge temperature predicted for laser sintered material is higher due to its low thermal conductivity compared to AISI1055.","PeriodicalId":437898,"journal":{"name":"The Asian Review of Civil Engineering","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129001167","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
