Turner, Claire, W. I. Hamilton et Martyn Ramsden. « Bowtie diagrams : A user-friendly risk communication tool ». Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part F : Journal of Rail and Rapid Transit 231, no 10 (novembre 2017) : 1088–97. http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/0954409716675006.
Texte intégralRésumé :
The rail infrastructure controller in Great Britain recognised that more work was required to allow a robust and consistent demonstration that appropriate health and safety risk assessments are being undertaken throughout each stage of the contracting process. In response to this requirement, the authors were engaged to assist the rail infrastructure client with the development of a new risk-based contractor management and assurance process. Bowtie diagrams were selected as a key component of this process to represent: Key safety risks associated with rail construction projects; Potential causes and consequences of unwanted events; Good practice in risk barriers/controls. To test the suitability of Bowties for risk communication to contractors, three key hazards were identified for Bowtie analysis. These and the specific top events selected were as follows: Hazard: Working at height – from scaffold, ladders, mobile elevating working platforms, mobile towers or ledges; Top event: Falls from height – to surface; Hazard: Working in vicinity of uninsulated conductors and supply points; Top event: Contact with live/charged equipment >60 V; Hazard: Working on or near the line; Top event: Personnel in path of oncoming train. A one-day Bowtie development workshop was held for each of the hazards selected. These were attended by client personnel with the required knowledge and expertise of the hazard and associated barrier measures, ensuring the necessary levels of input and consultation. Feedback to date on the Bowtie approach has been positive, both within the client and contractor organisations. Bowties provide a method of communicating the client’s expectations about levels of protection to infrastructure project contractors and address the following key requirements: Allow contractors to understand risk management requirements in detail and to price jobs accordingly; Enable identification of gaps in the barrier of key risks and facilitate implementation of best practice; Can be used by the client as a project safety assurance tool to check the risk management measures in place against those defined in the Bowtie; Demonstrate to the regulator that the client is communicating a clear ‘safety story’ throughout a project. This paper describes the Bowtie development process in accordance with Ten Golden Rules including how human factors can be incorporated in a systematic and meaningful way. It will demonstrate how the Bowties developed within this project represent in a clear and accessible manner what constitutes industry best practice with regard to controlling important safety risks in construction projects.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Abstract With the frequent occurrence of construction safety accidents, it is imperative to improve the safety performance of the construction industry. To predict safety performance scientifically, the number of construction accident fatalities was selected as an indicator of safety performance. This study combined the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and grey relational analysis (GRA) to identify labor productivity, construction area of the house, and the number of construction enterprises and employees of the construction enterprises as the main factors affecting the number of construction accident fatalities. Then, this study used the grey prediction theory to establish a GM(1,5) model to predict the number of safety accident fatalities in 2013-2019. The results showed that the model has great prediction accuracy and can be used to predict future construction safety performance. Through the prediction of safety performance, managers can evaluate the development trends of construction projects. Therefore, they can take timely measures to reduce the occurrence of safety accidents. Meanwhile, the study provides a new optimization method for the development of the GM(1,N) model and the application of real data.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Construction safety is critical in the success of a project. A considerable amount of effort has been placed on research and practice in order to reduce the potential risks on the construction site. Recent application of electroencephalogram (EEG) to construction research enables researchers to gain insight into construction workers’ physical and mental status during construction tasks. By summarizing existing studies that involve EEG and construction safety, the literature review aims to provide practical suggestions for future research and on-site safety management. The literature search and inclusion process included eleven eligible studies. Comprehensive analysis was conducted based on primary and secondary measures. The primary measures considered the frequency bands of EEG and the channels for detecting electrical activity of the brain. The secondary measures that were involved with physical and mental status with respect to EEG signal variations as a result of task, working hour, and work conditions. Although the field of study that combines EEG measures with construction tasks is still emerging, it is worth continuous attention in the future, as relevant findings would be of great value to the safety management and risk control in the construction industry.

Journal of Advanced Research in Applied Sciences and Engineering Technology 31, no 1 (13 juin 2023) : 34–52. http://dx.doi.org/10.37934/araset.31.1.3452.
Texte intégralRésumé :
The construction industry is one of the major growth engines of world economics. The recent occurrence of the Covid-19 pandemic has caused great threats to the construction industry. To prevent further damage occurring to the industry, identifying the consequences is necessary. This is to avert the worst level of economic deterioration in decades in the construction industry. However, the adverse effect of the Covid-19 pandemic on the construction industry is still unclear and defined. Hence, this study was conducted to evaluate the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic on the construction industry with the main objectives of to analyze the current state of the construction industry, then to investigate the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic on the construction industry and lastly to develop technology adaptation measures to reduce the negative impact towards the construction industry. The study was conducted through the method of quantitative study with the use of a closed-ended online questionnaire survey as the research instrument. The data of the survey was collected from 64 construction personnel all over Sarawak and was analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Science (SPSS) software which enables the data collected to be summarized in the nominal and interval scale. The findings of this study show that the outbreak of Covid-19 has caused drastic changes in the construction industry which has led to a few impacts such as delays in construction works, shortage of workers, financial problems, supply chain management issues as well as safety and health conditions. However, through the identification of appropriate technology adaptation measures such as technology development and application as well as e-monitoring site logistics and control, the impacts may be reduced and the adverse effect that is to suffer by the construction industry may be lessened.

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health 20, no 6 (8 mars 2023) : 4765. http://dx.doi.org/10.3390/ijerph20064765.
Texte intégralRésumé :
Safety issues have always been of great concern to the metro construction industry. Numerous studies have shown that safety issues are closely related to the design phase. Many safety problems can be solved or improved by developing the design. This study proposes a structured identification method for safety risks based on the metro design specifications, journal literature, and expert experience. A safety knowledge base (KB) for the design was established to realize safety knowledge sharing and reusing. The KB has been developed into Building Information Modeling (BIM) software as an inspection plug-in to achieve automated analysis and retrieval of safety risks. The designers are provided with a visualization of risk components to locate and improve the pre-control measures of the design. Subsequently, the process of design for safety (DFS) database creation was demonstrated with a metro station project, and the feasibility of applying the KB to safety checking in BIM was verified. In response to the inspection results, safety risks in the construction phases can be eliminated or avoided by standardizing and improving the design.

Texte intégralRésumé :
In the context of green, low-carbon, and sustainable construction, the safety management of smart construction sites has been a key issue. Current related research mainly focuses on the application of technology, but lacks methods to evaluate the safety management level. Therefore, this research aims to construct a smart construction site safety management evaluation model from a resilience perspective. First, this research identified and screened the indicators initially based on the 4R resilience characteristics and 4M theory by analyzing the policy texts of smart construction site safety management. Then, through expert consultation, the ISM model of resilience indicators was established to determine the evaluation indicator system of smart construction site safety management. Next, the weight of each indicator was determined with the help of the analytic network process, and the evaluation criteria of the indicators were formulated according to the existing specifications and expert interviews; then, the evaluation model of smart construction site safety management was established. Finally, the feasibility of the model was proved through a case study. The findings of the research show that in terms of weights, management has the highest score, followed by media, man, and machine. However, more resilience measures are used for the safety management of machine than the other three in policy texts. Obviously, there is a deviation between weights and resilience characteristics. These findings help reveal the current situation of safety management at smart construction sites, which is of great significance for improving resilience. The findings also help smart construction sites to realize the upgrading of safety, efficiency, and greenness, and promote the sustainable development of smart construction sites as well as the construction industry.

Ukrainian Journal of Civil Engineering and Architecture, no 1 (24 juin 2021) : 58–64. http://dx.doi.org/10.30838/j.bpsacea.2312.230221.58.718.
Texte intégralRésumé :
Problem statement. Architecture near rivers and other bodies of water reflects the artistic and stylistic features of cities. Modern surface architecture has been devided in two large groups and includes a large number of typological units. The first group is large hydraulic structures (canals, dams, locks, bridges). The second group are the buildings and structures with social and housing functions. Despite the different purposes, the objects of this group have a common structural scheme, which is represented by two components: a floating base and a superstructure [1]. Today buildings on water are very popular all over the world. The main reasons for this are overpopulation of the territory, high taxes on land and others. Such buildings are popular in Germany, the Netherlands, Great Britain, the United States of America, Venice, France, India, the Czech Republic and others. In Ukraine, the construction of buildings on water is promising and may become popular for the following reasons: rather short term of order implementation; long service life (up to 50 years); a large number of mooring places; closeness to nature; privacy of rest and others [2]. Due to the fact that the process of erecting buildings on water is quite complicated and covers several branches of production at once, consideration of the issue of ensuring safe working conditions is relevant and necessary. Also, this issue has its own specifics associated with the selection of workers and ensuring safety when working on water. Purpose of the article is an analysis of the state of safety and organization of safe working conditions during the erection of modern buildings on the water. Conclusions. 1. Fatal injury rates in the construction industry have consistently exceeded those in the mechanical engineering industry in recent years. At the same time, the indicators of fatal injuries in recent years have a tendency to increase and constancy in both industries. 2. The percentage of the main causes of occupational accidents is almost constant. The influence of the main hazardous production factors associated with the construction of buildings on water, for the most part, leads to the occurrence of accidents. 3. Drawing up recommendations for the safe implementation of consistently all stages of the construction of buildings on water is an important issue of our time, since such construction has great development prospects in our country.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The geological prospecting industry has developed rapidly in China over the past few years. It has made outstanding contributions to the discovery of new mineral resources, new energy sources, and the excavation and utilization of resources. However, geological prospecting projects do not have effective safety management measures at present. Moreover, the geological prospecting project has its own traits and features that differ from other industries, leading to the fact that safety management measures in other industries cannot be used in geological prospecting projects. Therefore, development of an effective safety management measuring tool is urgent and necessary. In recent years, safety climate has drawn great attention from scholars, and research results have been successfully applied in construction, coal mining and other industries. Based on the extensive literature review on safety climate as well as its organizational structure and employees’ individual behavior characteristics, this paper first extracted the factor structure of the safety climate and then developed a safety climate scale for geological prospecting projects. This paper used the methods of exploratory factor analysis and reliability analysis to ensure the developed safety climate scale was valid and reliable. The safety climate scale developed has four dimensions, i.e., project leader’s safety commitment, safety institutions, risk response, and employee’s safety attitude, containing a total of 17 measurable items. This study contributes to the current literature by exploring the factor structure of the safety climate for geological prospecting projects, and further provides a scientific basis for improvements in the geological prospecting industry. Meanwhile, the findings not only provide technical support for investigating and analyzing the safety management levels of the geological prospecting industry, but also contribute to the benchmarking standards among different enterprises and projects.

Dans 2022 29th International Conference on Nuclear Engineering. American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.1115/icone29-90327.
Texte intégralRésumé :
Abstract Background: In March 2011, Japan was struck by a massive earthquake which initiated a tsunami that led to a severe nuclear damage accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant of the Tokyo Electric Power Company. Now, more than ten years had passed. Even though, it is widely admitted that civil nuclear industry is of great importance in reducing greenhouse gas emission, improving natural environmental quality and safeguarding national energy security. Thus, China has been developing civil nuclear industry all these years in spite of the nuclear damage accident in Fukushima, Japan. Now, China has become one of the countries with most nuclear power plants. However, due to the potential radioactive risk, the public have instinctive fear of civil nuclear development. In order to relieve the public’s anti-nuclear sentiment, Nuclear Safety Law was formally implemented in 2018 and Measures for Disclosure of Nuclear Safety Information was issued by Ministry of Ecology and Environment of China in 2020, both clearly stipulating that the public’s right to obtain information of nuclear safety and involve in related activities in order to eliminate the public’s doubts and phobia about the development of civil nuclear industry. However, there are still challenges existing. Methods: Cases study is applied as a major methodology in this paper as for to show the severe problems in information disclosure and public involvement pertaining to the process of siting and construction of civil nuclear facilities. Moreover, legislation study is used in analyzing the content of related legislation and regulations currently. And qualitative methodology is also adopted in this paper to summarize the legal problems about information disclosure and social involvement during the time of siting and construction of civil nuclear facilities. Results: Although there are legislation and regulations which endow people with available information and opportunities-to-be-involved in China, the information disclosure and public involvement still exist several challenges, especially during the process of siting and construction of civil nuclear facilities. Thus, several anti-nuclear incidents had been initiated by the public due to lack of information and methods to participate in these years. According to the cases, information disclosure and public involvement are still not sufficient during the time of siting for nuclear facilities; relevant compensation mechanism for the public around the nuclear facilities has not been established; and public education for basic knowledge on nuclear safety is not enough. Therefore, public involvement cannot be realized completely. Conclusions: For ensuring information disclosure and public involvement of civil nuclear facilities, this article proposes that information disclosure and social involvement should be realized and protected as early as the process of siting for such facilities. Furthermore, operators of nuclear facilities and local governments should provide sufficient compensation to the public near nuclear facilities through preventive compensation mechanism and offer science popularization on nuclear safety to avoid the misunderstanding of the public.
