  • Abstract:
    Site layout planning is a complicated issue because of the vast number of trades and interrelated planning constraints. To unfold its complexity, this paper aims to confine the study to a particularly defined area of construction: the structural concrete-frame construction stage of public housing projects. In this study, optimization of the tower crane and supply locations is targeted, as they are the major site facilities for high-rise building construction. A site layout genetic algorithm model is developed and a practical example is presented. The optimization results of the example are very promising and demonstrate the application value of the model.
