摘要
The authors claim that unlike most other studies, in which the variability of productivity data was shown to fall within a specific distributional shape, this work has brought into light a distribution which is flexible and yet represents in a simple form most productivity distributions. This was shown in the contrasting distributional shapes of concreting and excavation productivity distributions.
