ANP experiment for demolition plan evaluation

This paper presents an analytic network process (ANP) experiment for demolition plan evaluation. An experimental case study on the Warren Farm Bridge demolition project is used to demonstrate the effectiveness of an ANP model to support finding the most appropriate demolition plan. Alternative plans...
