| Summary: | In recent years, a number of studies have successfully transformed various models for biological collective behavior into intelligent optimization algorithms. These bio-inspired optimization techniques have been developed to provide better solutions than traditional methods to a variety of engineering problems. This paper attempts to apply and compare recent bio-inspired algorithms for determining the best layout of construction temporary facilities. To validate the performance of the proposed techniques, an actual building construction project was used as a test problem. Based on the obtained results, the performance of each bio-inspired algorithm is highlighted and discussed. This paper presents beneficial insights to decision-makers in the construction industry that are involved in handling optimization problems. |
