A method for modeling construction risk is provided. The method includes
providing a statistical model for each of a plurality of location-based
tasks of a construction project model. A model parameter is randomly
selected for each of the plurality of statistical models to generate a
statistically-based duration for each of the location-based tasks. A
schedule duration is then calculated using the statistically-based
durations of the location-based tasks, and the steps of providing,
randomly selecting, and calculating are repeated until a statistical
distribution for the construction project model is generated, such as
using a Monte Carlo analysis procedure.
