Measuring the complexity of a project through its networks

In order to establish the complexity of a construction project, it is necessary to study both the structural complexity, based on the networks that can form, and the dynamic complexity, based on the co-evolution of the components of these networks. In this paper, this study focuses on the information exchange network between stakeholders in a project.Firstly, it is discussed what kind of network can be established and what metrics can be used in both types of complexity. Secondly, the corresponding algebraic expressions are arranged. These concepts are applied to a Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP) construction project with a combination of civil works and facilities.
