Evaluation of construction processes using the line of balance technique: Insights from Oglesby et al. (1989)

Construction, as a multidisciplinary field, requires adapting project planning according to the specific characteristics of each endeavor. Therefore, this document aims to evaluate the implementation of construction processes, specifically through the Line of Balance technique and methodologies such as Lean Construction, with the goal of optimizing resources in construction projects. Formal planning methods are compared with traditional approaches, alongside the assessment of project management tools like Microsoft Project and TactPlan, to identify the benefits and limitations of these methodologies, based on their impact on cost reduction, quality improvement, and meeting deadlines. The study’s conclusions provide practical planning recommendations for professionals and academics in the field of civil engineering and construction management, emphasizing the importance of adopting advanced planning methods.
