Construction Materials, Project Management, Web-Based Application, Data ManagementAbstract
Construction industry requires different tools to advance on-site tasks. Construction material management applications are one group of such efficient tools. Purchasing project materials in advance of their use allows Project Managers to assure a specified material is available especially before and after crisis conditions in accordance with the construction schedule. However, in such conditions, Project managers have to manage huge amount of data related to construction materials on jobsites. The objective of this research is to introduce a new application which helps the project manager access the huge stored amount of data easily in critical situations. As a result, time can be saved in such situations. This application is developed to store data relating to purchasing, storing, and using construction materials before and after predictable crisis condition such as hurricanes. It means that Project Managers can handle such situations through fast access to the data before and after the crisis.
