| ''A new strategy to estimate time-to-build completion rates'' |
| ( 2013, Vol. 33 No.2 ) |

| |
| Time-to-build completion rates can be estimated individually, under the restrictions that they are positive values summing up to one. As an alternative strategy, we may use the beta distribution as a restriction and calculate the corresponding completion rates collectively. The estimation results of a time-to-build model indicate that imposing the beta distribution may successfully preclude unrealistic completion pattern and improve fit of the model to data. |
