Lean construction is a philosophy that incorporates principles like identifying customer values and achieving efficient workflow processes to maximize output and minimize waste on construction projects. Implementing intensive lean construction methods has shown to result in 73% of projects coming in under budget and 80% finishing on time or ahead of schedule according to one study. Additionally, utilizing cloud and mobile technologies in lean construction can drastically reduce waste. However, barriers like limited management commitment, lack of leadership, and insufficient technology can hinder the implementation of lean construction principles and processes. Technologies like planning software, scaffold management software, and mobile communication apps help standardize workflows and facilitate real-time information sharing to support lean construction goals.

058 lean construction (2)
Lean construction is a process used in the construction industry to maximize value and minimize waste based on lean manufacturing principles. It utilizes techniques like supply chain management and just-in-time to improve information sharing and reduce waste. The Toyota Production System pioneered lean thinking by identifying and eliminating sources of waste to improve productivity, quality, and workforce satisfaction. Applying similar principles, lean construction aims to streamline project design and execution through prefabrication, continuous improvement, and collaboration across the project team.

Barriers to Implement Lean Principles in the Indian Construction Industry
Lean construction emerged from attempts of transferring and applying the Japanese Lean production
philosophy to the construction industry. Lean construction is a confluence of ideas including continuous
improvement, flattened organization structure, efficient usage of resources, elimination of waste, and cooperative
supply chain. Based on the success of Lean Production in manufacturing and the development of Lean Construction
in countries such as Brazil, Denmark and the USA, the application of Lean Construction is currently debated in India.
The aim of the study is identification of barriers to successful implementation of lean construction in the Indian
construction sector. The data was collected by questionnaire survey of project managers of building construction
organizations and senior consultants of architectural and project management firms. The data collected was then
analyzed to rank the main barriers and lean principles are suggested to overcome these barriers

IT projects often fail to meet goals for scope, time and cost. A 1995 study found that only 16.2% of projects met all goals, while over 31% were cancelled. More recent studies show improvements, with the number of successful projects doubling to 35% and cancelled projects decreasing. This is due to factors like better tools, more skilled project managers using improved processes, and projects with smaller scopes. Project success requires meeting scope, time and cost goals, satisfying stakeholders, and achieving intended benefits.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
