Analysis of knowledge flows in a construction project using a social network analysis tool

Construction researchers have difficulty standardizing the workflow of construction projects while organization researchers cannot fit the complex development workflow processes with the established Galbraith’s information processing design. Aware that the possession of knowledge within a constructi...
