Development and Evaluation of a Probabilistic Local Search Algorithm for Complex Dynamic Indoor Construction Sites
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The nature of an indoor construction site is dynamic and complex. This characteristic becomes even more evident when a multitude of interactions among workers, equipment, and materials exists. To assist various operations ...
Enhanced Machine Learning Classification Accuracy for Scaffolding Safety Using Increased Features
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Despite regular safety inspections and safety planning, numerous fatal accidents related to scaffold take place at construction sites. Current practices relying on human inspection are not only impractical but also ineffective ...
Framework of Automated Construction-Safety Monitoring Using Cloud-Enabled BIM and BLE Mobile Tracking Sensors
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Performance Test of Wireless Technologies for Personnel and Equipment Proximity Sensing in Work Zones
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The dynamic nature and limited work space of roadway work zones contribute to dangerous working environments for construction workers. This environment can result in hazardous proximity situations because pedestrian workers ...

Improving Multitower Crane Layout Planning by Leveraging Operational Flexibility Related to Motion Paths
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Effective crane management is imperative to ensure that construction projects are completed on time, within budget, and with a high degree of safety. Prior research on crane management has mostly focused on satisfaction ...
Evaluation of Demand-Responsive Transverse Rumble Strip Effects on Drivers’ Behavioral Changes as a Traffic Calming Device
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: From 2008 to 2017, pedestrian traffic crash fatalities increased from 12% to 16% of the total, and 18% of those fatalities occurred at intersections. To actively alert drivers to pedestrian presence in a crosswalk, a new ...
Unveiling Untapped Potential: Leveraging Accident Narratives for Enhanced Construction Safety Management
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Every construction accident generates a comprehensive accident report, as mandated by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). These reports are essential sources of data for understanding construction ...
