- Funded by InnovateUK [Grant Number: 18834-132285], this output proposes a standalone formula that gives the throughput rate of human-dependent serial flow lines. The method was used to predict the daily throughput rate of a concrete central reserve barrier (CRB) construction project under variable conditions. The case study was done collaboratively with Costain Group PLC and was focused on the CRB construction on UK’s motorway M1 (Junction 28 to 31). The project, ‘M1 Smart Motorway – Junction 28 to 31’, started in 2014 and was completed in 2016. Contact: Group Innovation & Knowledge Manager at Costain.
