This study proposes the application of an evolutionary algorithm in optimizing the construction process with Gantt charts to meet the multi-target requirements. The multi-target function is built based on single target criteria and is used as the cost function of the evolutionary algorithm. Application results with specific projects show multi-target optimization by using evolutionary algorithms that allow automatically building a suitable and balanced construction schedule between targets.

Construction project delay has been reported as a significant cause of the project’s failure, which results in cost overrun, thereby decreasing the effectiveness of the project. Therefore, project management has placed much effort in construction works’ scheduling to enhance project performance.

A probabilistic model is proposed to predict the risk effects on time and cost of public building projects. The research goal is to utilize a real history data in estimating project cost and duration. The model results can be used to adjust floats and budgets of the planning schedule before project commencement. Statistical regression models and sample tests are developed using real data of 113 public projects. The model outputs can be used by project managers in the planning phase to validate the schedule critical path time and project budget.

In construction management, the task of optimizing a project schedule to achieve a minimal cost and meet a project deadline is very crucial. The study "Project scheduling with cost minimization and time constraint formulated as a linear programming problem" formulates this task as a linear programming problem and investigates the application of the open-source Google OR-Tools in solving such problem. A computer program has been constructed based on the formulated linear programming problem and developed with Microsoft Visual Studio and Google ORTools.
