Description

This course aims to empower students to understand current construction safety management practices, including their underlying mechanisms and limitations, and to advance these practices by applying advanced psychological, physiological, and socio-cognitive theories, as well as cutting-edge sensing and data analytics techniques.

Note: previously recorded as CivE 709D

Learning Outcomes

1. List up natures of construction that make safety management hard
2. plan construction safety management programs given specific project circumstances while understanding their underlying rationales and limitations.
3. Identify human factor theories relevant to managing worker safety in construction
4. Develop interventions to improve worker safety in specific construction site situations by applying relevant psychological, physiological, or socio-cognitive theories.
5. Plan the synergistic applications of technologies, such as sensors, extended reality, and machine learning, along with an in-depth understanding of human factors, to enhance worker safety in specific construction site situations.
