visualization; productivity INTRODUCTION While the construction industry comprises 5.4% of the overall U.S. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) (Bureau of Economic Analysis‚ 2013 and Huesman et al.‚ 2013)‚ it lags the rest of the economy in terms of productivity measurement and improvement (Goodrum et al.‚ 2002b). Due to changes in real output and differences in accounting procedures‚ there is no industry level measure of productivity (Bureau of Labor Statistics‚ 2012). The Bureau of Labor Statistics

of several types of volumetric glassware and the accuracy of measuring the volumes of liquids very precisely in quantitative laboratory work. The accuracy of the measurement the volumes is the degree of closeness of measurements of a quantity’s actual volumes while the precision of the volumes is the degree to which repeated measurements under unchanged conditions show the same results. Each of volumetric glassware is marked with its total volume‚ the notation of TD for ‘to deliver’ and TC for ‘to

New distance measurements were recorded at all six drilled hole locations using depth gage. Initial depth measurements were then subtracted from these measurements to calculate deflections at each point. 5. Experiment was then modeled in ANSYS where deflection predictions were recorded. Results and Discussion Figure 1 below shows

6. Below are listed some objects of varying degrees of abstraction. Suggest properties of each of these objects that can be measured by each of the four basic types of scales. There are relatively few pure interval scales found in business research. Almost all text discussions of this scale refer to the example of temperature scales. However‚ some attitude scales such as the Likert and Semantic Differential‚ are claimed to approach interval characteristics. In addition‚ approximate interval scales

Age is not only measured in years. Personally‚ I’m three houses‚ approximately 6‚000 songs‚ and 1‚825 peanut butter and jelly sandwiches old. I can also measure my life in trips to the airport. Each time I fly‚ one more trip documents my life. When I was six airport trips old‚ my mother‚ sister‚ and I drove to Kennedy Airport to fly to England‚ where my father was waiting at our new home. As the grown-ups around me shed tears‚ I could barely contain my excitement about our “vacation‚” unable to grasp
