Abstract

Full-span Pre-cast Launching Method (FPLM) is an excellent bridge construction technology which has been implemented in many sections of Taiwan's High-Speed Rail (THSR) Project. The study applied Dynamic Simulation (DS), and a DS software named “SIMPROCESS”, to create a dynamic model taking five sections of THSR Project which implemented FPLM as case studies. The study via SIMPROCESS differentiated the resources used and the performance of five cases which the FPLM was adopted. Also, the study identified the critical factors in the operating process of FPLM which influence the performance of the project execution by using cross-tabulate and sensitivity analysis, and presented better alternatives to improve those cases which could be useful for future applications.
