Safety behaviour and safety management: its influence on the attitudes of workers in the UK construction industry
Tập 7 Số 2 - Trang 133-140 - 2000
This paper identifies the critical factors that influence the attitudes of
construction workers towards safe behaviour on construction sites. It studies
these attitudes by using a research model that links three themes: safety
management implementation strategies, attitudes of workers about safety and
behavioural factors displayed by construction workers. This model is used to
frame the responses ...
Industry development through creative project packaging and integrated management

Critical success factors of the BOOT procurement system: reflections from the Stadium Australia case study
Tập 9 Số 4 - Trang 352-361 - 2002
Recent trends in the provision of infrastructure development indicate that the
private sector is playing an increasingly important role in the procurement
process. This trend has partly arisen out of a necessity for the development of
infrastructure to be undertaken at a rate that maintains and allows growth. This
has become a major challenge for many countries where it is evident that these
provi...

Development of constructability concepts, principles and practices
- 1997
Constructability is a system for achieving optimum integration of construction
knowledge in the building process and balancing the various project and
environmental constraints to achieve maximisation of project goals and building
performance (CII Australia 1993). Constructability concepts and principles,
considered during conceptual planning, design, procurement, construction and
use, can make th...
Linear scheduling: past research efforts and future directions
- 1998
Since the early 1960s, there have been different techniques to schedule linear
projects, but for the most part, these have been overshadowed by the critical
path method (CPM). Recently, there has been renewed interest in linear
scheduling and in adapting some of the CPM techniques to linear scheduling. This
necessitates a review of the research in the area of linear scheduling. The
present paper p...
Photo‐net: an integrated system for controlling construction progress
- 2003
A scheduling and progress control system called Photo‐net is introduced where a
digital movie of construction activities can be played back along with an
animation of as‐built vs. as‐planned performance of these activities. A
technique to make time‐lapse digital films of construction activities is used. A
method to store a digital film is developed allowing thousands of pictures to be
stored and m...
