Holt, Gary D. / Olomolaiye, Paul O. / Harris, Frank C.	Application of an alternative contractor selection model: This paper reports on initial results from the application to real‐life of a selection of exercises of an alternative selection model designed to rationalize and simultaneously broaden the scope of this often onerous task	255-264
Bell, C. L. / Kermani, A. / McKenzie, W. M. C.	The behaviour of a MDF groove‐lock flooring system under static load: Investigation of the structural behaviour of medium density fibreboard, MDF, panels used as a flooring system under static loading conditions. Properties of the panel and structural support rails were tested as separate components to determine their behaviour	249-254
Lam, J. C. / Chan, A. L. S.	Building energy audits and site surveys: Energy audits and site surveys in Hong Kong of a government office building, a private sector office building and a hotel identify major areas for energy conservation and management programmes in existing commercial buildings	270-278
Fulambarkar, Ajay M. / Askhedkar, R. D.	Extrusion of flyash: Review of literature related to manufacture of flyash bricks by the extrusion process and report on the experimental extruder fabricated specially for this purpose	265-269
Li, Heng	Neural networks for construction cost estimation: On the positive side neural networks demonstrate many features that are coherent with the nature of cost estimation. Major strengths include their ability to self‐organize knowledge from training data, their ability to generate results from incomplete information and their ability to cope with complex relations. These largely resemble the way human estimators develop expertize through experience	279-284
Mohsini, R. A. / Sirpal, R. / Davidson, C. H.	Procurement: A comparative analysis of construction management and traditional building processes: Comparative study of two different procurement processes in Singapore	285-290
