Research on Organization Network Model for Construction Project Based on Social Network Analysis

Abstract:

Current project organization is mostly non-professional and low maturity, which lack of mature and visual methods and tools. Engineering project has obvious social characteristics, which includes not only material operating activities also cooperation and collaboration of complex staff a large number of social activities, etc. This paper point out the organization of control of project management into the field of social network analysis(SNA), A qualitative social network model for construction project organization is established, and then this model is quantitatively analyzed with the help of UCINET, which can fully demonstrate the organization and management in the areas of project feasibility.
