Application of fuzzy multi-objective model for crashing the construction of steel structure projects post-pandemic (Covid-19)

Abstract

Post-COVID-19, construction projects faced several scenarios because many projects were delayed for the scheduled time. Owners and contractors work to achieve the optimum time to reach the best performance for the projects. Construction was impacted by covid-19, a singular occurrence that shut down all significant industries connected to the project value chain. Egypt is attempting to respond to the difficulties of the post-covid-19 reality, which has come to define a new norm for the economy and society, just like the majority of other countries throughout the world. This study applies 7 cases of fuzzy approaches to a multiobjective project network of steel structure projects. The results could help decision-makers and industry experts address the post-covid-19 crash of project schedules and other disasters that affect project construction schedules and delay the projects by increasing awareness and helping them make informed decisions.
