Low False Alarm Rate Model for Unsafe-Proximity Detection in Construction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The research reported in this paper proposes and develops an unsafe-proximity detection model focused on decreasing false alarms. By considering three types of entity attributes [i.e., (1) position, (2) heading/moving ...
Reliability-Based Hybrid Data Fusion Method for Adaptive Location Estimation in Construction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Materials tracking and locating, which can be accomplished through various technologies and data sources, are key elements affecting construction productivity. The need for developing fundamental methods to take advantage ...
Location-Aware Scheduling and Control of Linear Projects: Introducing Space-Time Float Prisms
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Space and time planning of construction activities is a key factor affecting safety and field performance in construction sites. When scheduling and controlling linear projects, identification of potential congestion and/or ...
FRP-Confined Concrete Composite Retrofit System for Structural Steel Columns
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP)–confined concrete-steel composite columns have been recently introduced as a retrofit technique for structural steel columns. This technique involves placing a two-part FRP tube around an ...
Data-Fusion Approaches and Applications for Construction Engineering
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Data fusion can be defined as the process of combining data or information for estimating the state of an entity. Data fusion is a multidisciplinary field that has several benefits, such as enhancing the confidence, improving ...
