Study on System Complexity of Mega Infrastructure Projects System – Taking Wuhan East Lake Channel Project as Case Study

Article Preview

Abstract:

The mega-infrastructure projects system complexity will increase along with the growing rate of stakeholders` quantity, changeable construction environment and multidisciplinary technical implementation. The research aims to analyze the characteristics of this kind of projects progress in the time dimension and evaluate the complexity of the mega infrastructure project system. The complexity evaluation system including 18 measurement indicators is proposed based on the theory of complex system and the structural equation model are applied to be calculated the solution which indicated the key factors and measurement of the mega-infrastructure projects. The conclusion has been drawn and tested by the Wuhan East Lake Channel Project as case study which showed that the measure index and the evaluation model can be applied in evaluating complexity of the mega-infrastructural projects scientifically.
