Sumario:Construction is one of the most important issues in a society economically, socially, culturally and so on. But the issue of quality in the construction projects requires discussion takes more scientific. The objective of this study is to investigate the optimization of the quality of construction projects and construction costs based on system reliability theory. Also, a real construction project is presented to evaluate the efficiency of the proposed model. In order to achieve this goal, a four-step algorithm is defined and proposed model using two methods M3AS and classic ant colony algorithm is solved. The results of both methods are compared. Parzin five-story residential building located on Zaferanieh Street is studied. The results indicated that M3AS innovative approach through local search is more capable than the classical ant colony algorithm for optimization. Most previous studies have not considered the importance of the quality of project. In this study, quality in the form of reliability at the time of completion of the work is quantified. The proposed model has been so overcome lack of expression and effectively using reliability theory. This model can automatically produce reliability and optimal cost of system with regard to structure function of reliability and non-linear function of cost-reliability. In this study, multi-objective optimization model based on reliability theory extends to decision-makers to determine and choose between cost and quality for construction projects. Since a major part of the annual budget allocated to construction projects, these projects are the most important component of the country's development that must be managed properly in terms of cost and quality and be completed according to the schedule. iT is clear that the status of the construction industry in terms of quality and cost should be much improved.
