报告摘要：The objective of this research is to develop a methodology for planning environmentally conscious construction by addressing the interdependency of time, cost and environmental impact (TCEI). The importance of the construction industry in terms of its environmental impact is very well recognized and reflected by the large amount of energy use in existing buildings and construction processes. Nevertheless, the environmental impact of construction processes is still poorly understood. Construction projects are typically executed under multiple constraints such as project schedule, budget, quality and safety. Future advancement of environmentally conscious construction hinges on a better understanding of the interdependency of TCEI. To achieve the objective, a simulation environment called Simulation of Environmental Impacts of Construction (SimulEICon) will be developed to quantitatively and accurately reveal the interdependency of TCEI.
