From project management as instrumental processes to projects as social process: a case study investigationHough, Elnari 20 August 2012 (has links)
To contribute to the field of research of Projects as Social Processes, this
research study will investigate the various aspects of social processes in the
project environment. The study will be qualitative in nature and will use a case
study methodology investigating the social processes experienced by the
project managers of the various subsystems of Bombardier Transportation, as
part of the Bombela Concession Company, in the delivery of the Gautrain Rapid
Rail Link project.
Project Managers were interviewed to understand how they experience the
social processes taking place in the project environment as well as how they
handle and approach these social interactions.
The above methodology used in this exploratory case study is specifically used
to develop a justification for enlarging the existing methodological Project
Management Bodies of Knowledge (PMBOK) and the Life Cycle processes
applicable to System Engineering to include Social processes.

Geotechnical investigations for the Gautrain Mass Transit Rapid Rail Link over dolomite bedrock in the Centurion area, South AfricaMomubaghan, Glory Adeoye 22 May 2013 (has links)
The Gautrain Rapid Rail Link is a state-of-the-art rail route and one of the ten Spatial Development Initiatives planned in Gauteng Province, South Africa. The route comprises two links, namely a link between Tshwane (Pretoria) and Johannesburg and a link between OR Tambo International Airport and Sandton. A total of 10 stations are linked by approximately 80 kilometres of rail along the proposed route. Between Johannesburg and Pretoria in the southern Tshwane region, the rail alignment is underlain by dolomite bedrock for approximately 15km in the vicinity of Centurion between Nelmapius Drive and The Fountains, including nearly 6km elevated on a viaduct. The stability of the rapid rail link constructed over the dolomitic sections was considered a major project risk due to its proneness to sinkholes and subsidences along this route. Construction on heterogeneous soils, pinnacled bedrock and other geohazards posed major challenges to the construction team. To facilitate detailed design and adapt proper foundation options for the viaducts founded over the dolomitic terrain, rigorous and comprehensive ground investigations were conducted by the Bombela Civils Joint Venture (BCJV). This work presents the different ground investigation methods used and how the results have led to the adoption of five suitable foundation solutions namely: large diameter shafts to rock, piles to rock, floating foundations over grouted ground, spread footings on shallow bedrock and concrete U shaped structures.

Railway Mobility Hubs: A feature-based investment return analysisHidalgo González, Guillermo, Queirós, António January 2019 (has links)
While there has been considerable research regarding the role of Mobility Hubs in cities and transport networks, significant investment is required to develop these facilities. It is the correlation between investment, new users’ attraction and revenue generation that is the key for a sustainable development of Mobility Hubs and this investment must, therefore, be correctly assessed and targeted. This study aims to develop a methodology to determine the viability of investing in Mobility Hub features, weighing the investment on different Hub features and services against expected potential benefits and revenue generation, addressing the question: Can investment in Mobility Hub features be justified and, if so, which features maximize its expected positive impact? Based on a review of literature and definition of possible Hub features as variables, secondary research data was compiled to enable the analysis of expected impacts of each variable/feature in terms of new user’s attraction and revenue generation, which was then used to develop individual Net Present Value analysis of each feature. The result of these analysis demonstrates and concludes that different Hub features have the potential to generate substantially different investment outcomes, and that each feature should be analyzed individually prior to investment decision. It was also concluded by this research that the proposed assessment methodology can be used for future research on other listed Hub features, albeit with the constraint that primary data will be required when secondary research data is not available.
