Previous approaches for construction project scheduling have been limited to one dimension of time for bar charts and two dimensions for linear and repetitive scheduling approaches, which added a measure of work quantity. The question therefore arises if and how it is possible to derive a three-dimensional and ultimately multi-dimensional model. Reviewing mathematical theory finds that traditional functions lack the capability to express intervals for activities. Singularity functions are therefore chosen to newly derive stationary and directional activities in a Cartesian coordinate system, wherein the two dimensions of the floor plan area plus one dimension of time are explicitly modeled in an integrated manner. They are implemented into a conflict-avoiding heuristic scheduling algorithm that minimizes total project duration, which is computerized and validated with example calculations.
