摘要
Discrete-event simulation has been widely used technique in analyzing construction operations for the past three decades due to its great effect on optimizing cost and productivity. In this paper we will present Arena as a tool for simulating earthwork operations, the advantage of Arena is its easiness and flexibility in simulating most kinds of models in different areas of construction. A case study will be presented, a model will be built and results obtained to reveal the mentioned objectives.
