The paper presents selected applications of computer methods: linear programming and network programming, in the decision-making process regarding the planning and organization of material transport on a construction site. The study is part of the teaching materials for the subject “Computer Methods in Civil Engineering,” which the authors taught from 1988 to 2002 for civil engineering students at the Warsaw University of Technology. The goal of the subject “Computer Methods in Civil Engineering,” which the authors taught for students specializing in “Construction Technology and Organization,” was to introduce computer-aided support in decision-making regarding planning and organization in construction. The framework program of the subject was as follows:
1. Overview of computer methods used in engineering decision-making tasks. Introduction to mathematical modeling.
2. Linear programming – applications in production planning, material management, and project implementation planning. (…)
