Network Model Analysis of Quality Control Factors of Prefabricated Buildings Based on Complex Network Theory

Publication: ICCREM 2022

ABSTRACT

The prefabricated building quality system is a complex system. In order to manage the quality of prefabricated buildings better, it is necessary to study the quality system of prefabricated buildings. First, according to relevant building code, literature, and project experience, the main quality control factors that affect the quality of prefabricated buildings and their relationships are obtained. Second, we built a network model of quality control factors of prefabricated buildings. Third, node degree, betweeness centrality, clustering coefficient, and other parameters of the network model are analyzed by applying complex network theory. Finally, we obtain the 17 key quality control factors, the interrelationships of six key stages, and the links leading to four quality defective nodes. This research can provide a reference for quality managers of prefabricated buildings at all stages, offering new ideas and methods for the research on quality analysis and management of prefabricated buildings.
