Component Optimisation of Multiple D&B Bridge projects: A Case Study in Sabah, Malaysia

The construction process and success in management of multiple bridge projects directly relies on the selection and optimization of their components. A systematic optimization process is adopted during the conceptual design stage to overcome the resource constraints during the construction phase....
