RISEmpirical Investigation of the Average Deployment Force of Personal Fall-Arrest Energy Absorbers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The personal energy absorber (PEA) is a critical component of a personal fall arrest system (PFAS), and it is meant to dissipate the energy generated during a fall to prevent injuries to the user. When designing PFASs, ...
Safety Risk Diagnosis Based on Motion Trajectory for Construction Workers: An Integrated Approach
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Workers’ motion trajectories or spatial tracks on construction sites contain useful safety-related information. Existing safety management research on worker trajectory typically analyzes the interactions between worker ...
Investigating the Adequacy of Horizontal Lifeline System Design through Case Studies from Singapore
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Horizontal lifeline system (HLLS) is one of the most widely used fall arrest systems for mitigating the risk of work-at-height in the construction and building industry. A HLLS must ensure the maximum arrest load created ...
