Recently, the importance of prevention has emerged for the management of construction safety accidents.. Accordingly, this study collects and quantifies various risk factors at the construction site to represent them as direct risks and to create a predictive process for prevention in advance. These risk figures can be used as comprehensive safety figures to reflect current site conditions and past accidentt cases. The prevention of industrial accidents is managed in advance through the development of applications thatt quantify and predict the risks of individuals working at construction sites. The purpose of the project is to reduce industrial accidents in the construction industry by supporting safety management of site managers and workers.

Construction accidents in Korea are continuously increasing. Safety signs with high visibility color can diminish such accidents in dangerous places. In order for safety color to be more effective as a global communication means in construction sites, it needs to be checked out whether safety color standard reflect the characteristics of construction industry such as worker or work environment. This paper compared safety color standards among Korea, the US, the UK, and Australia. First, blue color was included in all, which should be corrected considering aged workers increasing in construction industry. Because with age, the ability to distinguish between blue, purple, and gray colors decreases. Second, Korea, which has only single code designated to safety colors, should find alternatives like tolerance to be applicable to a variety of light environments on construction sites, as the contrast which affect the visibility may decrease in dark conditions.

The construction industry has the highest death rate related to safety accidents of any industry. Furthermore, in contrast to other industries, where the death rate related to safety accidents has been steadily declining, both the death toll and the number of accidents in the construction industry have been on the rise. Construction accidents occur when various risks increase in an intertwined way to reach a tipping point; a moment when such factors cannot be tolerated any longer Conventional safety management methods have restrictions in terms of their ability to fully prevent all types of safety accidents. This research considers ways in which USN technology can be applied to safety management on a construction site, and derives a method of applying USN technology for safety management monitoring. The tasks related to safety management on construction sites, as well as the occurrence of accidents, are first analyzed. By analyzing the characteristics of construction accidents, the factors that must be a priority and the factors that can be a lower priority are derived. Finally, the configuration of a monitoring system for safety management on a construction site to which USN technology is applied is presented. It is expected that safety accidents can be prevented from occurring on construction sites by applying this cutting-edge USN technology.

국내의 산재 사고 사망 비율 중 대부분은 건설업이 차지하고 있으며 사망 원인 중 42.9%는 추락사가 차지하고 있다. 따라서 국내 사고 사망을 예방하기 위해서는 노동자의 생명을 지켜주는 안전 장비의 착용 여부가 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 객체 탐지에 사용되는 YOLO v4와 YOLO v4-TINY 알고리즘과 영상 처리에 사용되는 OpenCV를 이용하여 실시간 영상에서 안전모 미착용 인원을 감지하고 관리자에게 알려주는 시스템을 개발하였다. 이 시스템을 활용하여 건설 현장에서 현장 카메라로 안전모 미착용 인원을 실시간으로 검출하여 경고하므로써 작업자의 안전에 기여할 수 있다.

Under industry 4.0, Internet of Things (IoT) is advancing a new breed of smart manufacturing environment. However IoT has not been widely applied in construction industry compared with manufacturing environment. IoT enables operational systems that deliver more accurate and useful information for managing construction accidents. IoT enables operational systems that deliver more accurate and useful information for managing construction accidents. In order to apply well IoT for construction safety management, as a preliminary study, this paper presents e safety accident prevention IoT Cone system through dangerous area setting in construction site.

우리나라 역사의 보고(寶庫)이자 정신문화의 중심인 경북 안동시. 도산서원과 하회마을 등 유서 깊은 선비문화로 유명한 이곳에 앞으로는 '최첨단 친환경 에너지 도시'라는 수식어가 더 추가될 것으로 보인다. 안동시 풍산읍 일대에 대규모 청정에너지 발전시설인 '한국남부발전(주) 안동천연가스건설소'가 점차 제모습을 갖춰가고 있는 중이다. 이곳 현장은 첨단 친환경 신기술을 동원해 시공에 임하고 있는 것은 물론 안동의 상징물인 서의문을 본뜬 정문과 고택의 담장을 연상케하는 담에 기와를 얹는 등 건축물 전반에 안동 고유의 멋과 특성을 고스란히 담아내고 있다. 또한 에너지 파크를 조성하는 등 지역과 상생하는 체험프로그램의 개발과 마련에도 총력을 기울이고 있다. 이 모두 안동천연가스건설소의 자부심과 자랑이지만, 이곳을 더욱 빛나게 하는 것은 따로 있다. 그것은 바로 '안전'이다. 산업재해와 안전사고가 발생해 선비정신에 누를 끼치는 일이 없도록 안전관리에 총력을 기울이고 있는 것이다. 철저한 안전관리로 한국 정신문화의 수도 안동에 새로운 랜드마크를 건설하고 있는 이곳 현장을 찾아가 보았다.

High incident of accidents in construction jobsite became a social problem. According to the International Labour Organization (ILO), more than 60,000 fatal accidents occur each year in construction workplace worldwide. This number of accidents accounts for about 17 percent of all fatal workplace accidents. Especially, accidents from struck-by and falls comprise of over 60 percent of construction fatalities. This paper introduces a prototype of a received signal strength index (RSSI)-based safety monitoring to mitigate the potential accidents caused by falls and struck-by. Correlation between signal strength and noise index is examined to create the distance profile between a transmitter and a receiver. Throughout the distributed sensor nodes attached on potential hazardous objects, the proposed prototype envisions that construction workers with a tracker-tag can identify and monitor their current working environment in construction workplace, and early warning system can reduce the incidents of fatal accident in construction job site.

It becomes easy to acquire operating qualification of remote control tower crane and illegal retrofits is increased, remote control tower crane models are increasingly being used in smaller construction sites. However, as the problems caused by tower crane operators who have shortages of operating experience grow, safety accidents is increasing and worker is exposed to risk of accident. In this study, the cause of the accident was derived by analyzing the cause of the remote control tower crane accident. And then, the significance of accident causes was analyzed by AHP technique. The result of this study is that tower crane operators and construction workers do not comply with work rules.
