abstract = {Construction contractors often encounter projects that contain several identical or similar units, such as floors in multistory building, houses in housing developments, meters in pipelines, or stations in highways. These multi projects are characterized by repeating activities, which in most instances arise from the sub division of a generalized activity into specific activities associated with particular units. For example, a paint wall activity for a multistory building may be broken into paint first floor wall, paint second floor wall, etc. Activities repeating from unit to unit create a very important need for a construction schedule that facilitates the uninterrupted flow of resources (work crew) from one unit to the next, because it is often this requirement that establishes activity starting times and determines the overall project duration. Hence, uninterrupted resource utilization becomes an extremely important issue. The objective of this work is to integrate these methods into a generalized and simplified model, the Repetitive Scheduling Method (RSM), which ensures continuous resource utilization and is applicable to both vertical and horizontal construction. Two new concepts that emerge from development of RSM are control point and controlling sequence. RSM is not a complicated technique. It is a simple and easily applied scheduling methodology that follows naturally from the concepts and relationships found in Critical Path Method (CPM) precedence network.},
