  • Modular building is a fast-growing construction method, mainly due to its ability to drastically reduce the amount of time it takes to construct a building and produce higher-quality buildings at a more consistent rate. However, while modular construction is relatively safer than traditional construction methods, workers are still exposed to hazards that lead to injuries and fatalities, and these hazards could be controlled using emerging smart technologies. Currently, limited information is available at the intersection of modular construction, safety risk, and smart safety technologies. This paper aims to investigate what aspects of modular construction are most dangerous for its workers, highlight specific risks in its processes, and propose ways to utilize smart technologies to mitigate these safety risks. Findings from the archival analysis of accident reports in Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Fatality and Catastrophe Investigation Summaries indicate that 114 significant injuries were reported between 2002 and 2021, of which 67 were fatalities. About 72% of fatalities occurred during the installation phase, while 57% were caused by crushing and 85% of crash-related incidents were caused by jack failure/slippage. IoT-enabled wearable sensing devices, computer vision, smart safety harness, and Augment and Virtual Reality were identified as potential solutions for mitigating identified safety risks. The present study contributes to knowledge by identifying important safety trends, critical safety risk factors and proposing practical emerging methods for controlling these risks.

  • This paper presents probabilistic risk assessment system model and methods for general construction projects and demonstrates the applicability of the approach to a specific subway construction project. The proposed system model entitled Integrated Risk Assessment System(IRAS) for construction projects is composed of four steps, which is newly reorganized and improved in order to be easily adjusted for a systematic PRA of construction projects. Based on the proposed model, and integrated prototype software is then developing for computer-aided PRA of construction projects under the environment of the graphic-user interface, which will be successfully applied to construction projects.

  • This paper presents a study on risk analysis in terms of contractor's costs in construction phase in which Crystal ball (software of Decisioneering, UK) has been utilized as a main tool. To realize it, a questionnaire survey has been carried out to identify the dominant factors that strongly influence contractor costs in Vietnam. Based on results of questionnaire investigation, the survey identified three factors which were duration of each construction task, costs of reinforcing steel, and cement. Then a spreadsheet model was created in order to analyze risks. The study also indicates that the cost of reinforcing steel and cement are the cause of risks for contractors. According to the suggested model, contractors may foresee the probability of completion within the approved budget, and the possibility of earning in accordance with owner's payment conditions.

  • The complex and dynamic job nature and the ever-changing working environment of construction projects inevitably present uncertainties to construction operations. Identification, evaluation and control of uncertainties constitute main elements of risk management and critical tasks of project management in construction. This paper is focused on application of a simplified discrete-event simulation approach in management of schedule-overrun risks, each being the combination of the occurrence probability of an uncertain interruptive factor and its potential consequence in terms of time delay. A case study observed from a concreting operation in Hong Kong is converted into a simulation model and analyzed with an in-house-developed simulation package for demonstrating how the proposed approach can be implemented to manage multiple schedule-overrun risks on construction projects.

  • 설계안전성검토 제도 도입으로 현장공사수행 시 안전을 고려한 설계를 도입해야하나 실제 현장에서 설계안전성검토를 적용하여 수행하기에는 아직 미흡한 점이 많다. 본 연구에서는 설계안전성검토를 적용하지 않은 현장과 적용을 한 현장을 비교연구하였다. 적용공종은 건축물공사의 뼈대에 해당되는 골조공사 중 지하외벽공사에 대하여 연구하였다. 지하외벽 공사는 대부분 작업 조건이 외부 환경에 노출되어 작업조건이 열악하고 작업단계도 비계공사, 거푸집공사, 철근공사, 콘크리트타설공사 등을 거쳐야 완성되므로 안전사고 위험요소가 매우 높은 공종이다. 이에 각단계별 위험요소를 도출하고 위험성평가를 실시하여 이를 저감하기 위한 대안공법을 선정하였다. 대안으로 선정된 공법의 위험요소를 도출하고 위험성평가를 실시하여 설계안전성검토 미적용현장과 적용현장을 비교하여 위험성평가 가중치를 산출하고 저감효과를 연구하여 설계안전성검토가 필요한 사유를 설명하였다. 또한, 대안으로 수립된 공법을 실제 적용한 사례를 연구하여설계안전성검토 필요성을 제시하였다.

  • 건설산업은 안전사고뿐 아니라 공기지연, 원가상승, 환경오염 등의 여러 복합적인 리스크가 발생하며 이를 해결하기 위한 관리기술이 필요하다. 그 중에서 프로젝트에 직접적인 영향을 미치는 공정리스크의 관리는 그 중요성에 비해 관련정보가 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구는 각 프로젝트마다 상이한 분류체계 사용으로 인한 리스크 정보검색의 어려움을 해소하기 위하여 MATM 터널 공정리스크분류체계를 개발하고자 하였다. 리스크수집은 기존 문헌검토와 Experience Mining 기법을 사용하였고 DB구축은 자연어처리 개념을 활용하였다. 분류체계의 구조는 자료의 호환성을 고려하여 기존 WBS 구조를 채택하였고, WBS의 공종과 연결된 RBS를 구축하였다. 연구결과 공종별 리스크를 쉽게 파악하고 리스크에 연결된 리스크특성과 리스크요인이 직관적으로 드러나는 리스크분류체계가 완성되었다. 구축된 분류체계의 활용성 검증결과 사용자의 키워드 입력으로 공종별 리스크와 리스크요인이 쉽게 식별되어 분류체계는 유효한 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 NATM터널 계획 및 설계 시 작업공종에 따르는 리스크를 미리 식별하고 그 요인에 맞는 대응방안을 수립하여 비용과 공사기간의 증가를 방지하는데 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

  • Risk Assessment, a basis of health and safety management system, is an calamity prevention activity which regularly measure the level of a risk to passively improve potential hazard. A problem, the assessment not being improved to be applied to the construction work site where requires diversity and complexity, causes the assessment to be inefficient to bring quality results. A study on the investigates and compares the surveyed degree of recognitions of workers who works in companies executing the risk assessment By the investigation and comparison, it is expected to bring the better solution for early and efficient application for those companies which are not taking the risk assessment.

  • The purpose of this study. was to Identification the Risk of construction method to protect and reduce the risk of construction period. The inspection list usually has the difference of importance because this list is not made by Method which is not focused on Method. We tested Risk occurring frequency and it's strength by checking the level of Risk. To solve and compensate the matter which happened by changing the each Method Check List to each General Inspection List, we added the each Method Check List by checking the importance of check list of each process. By doing this, the Check List for finding Risk level of Method was created by using the check list of each Method.
