1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The generation of a substantial amount of construction waste (CW) poses significant challenges to the green transition of highway construction projects. However, the construction industry lacks integration of construction waste management (CWM) practices into the construction process. This paper aims to develop a calculation for assessing the performance of CWM to monitor its effectiveness in highway construction. Initially, this study utilizes the Site waste management plan (SWMP) as a foundation and develops a Construction Waste Management Performed Assessment Method (CWMPAM). The extension of CWM is incorporated into earned value management (EVM) to manage costs, schedules, and the performance of CWM within a unified framework. The functionality and sensitivity of CWMPAM and CWM-embedded EVM are validated through pilot testing and scenario analysis. The research results are computerized into a calculator to facilitate the practical application of CWM, and its validity is tested using random cases. CWMPAM and CWM-embedded EVM prove satisfactory in assessing and monitoring the execution and performance of CWM. The developed calculator simplifies the practical application of the outcomes. Essentially, the developed calculator represents a groundbreaking integration of CWM and construction management, enabling project managers to monitor and compare the CWM performance across different segments of highway construction. Not only does this contribute to the green transformation of highway projects, it also promotes high quality and sustainable development in the construction industry.
