By building on a genetic-inspired attribute-based conceptual framework for safety risk analysis, we propose a novel approach to define, model, and simulate univariate and bivariate construction safety risk at the situational level. Our fully data-driven techniques provide construction practitioners and academicians with an easy and automated way of getting valuable empirical insights from attri...

The seepage and slope stability are very important and necessary in the dam dirt are, therefore, in this context, numerous applications to predict and calculate the rate of leakage has been prepared that than the experimental time and cost savings for the analysis of liquids before construction of earth dams need. In this study, safety factors for slope stability software Kaboodwal  plaxis two-...

Safety management is an important mortal and business function in construction. Contractors have traditionally tracked and reported lagging indicators, e.g. fatalities and lost-time accident rates, to measure their safety performance and stay in compliance with relevant regulations. Over the last several decades, contractors became more proactive in their approach to safety and developed progra...

A small, manageable number of common software safety assurance principles can be observed from software assurance standards and industry best practice. We briefly describe these assurance principles and explain how they can be used as the basis for creating software safety arguments.

Introduction In the foreword to the Malaysian Guidelines for Operation, Maintenance and Surveillance of Dams (Malaysian Inter-Departmental Committee on Dam Safety 1989), it is stated “The expanding inventory of dams has brought into focus the subject of dam safety”. At the time of the guideline publication, there had been a considerable increase in the inventory of dams with those constructed d...

This paper tries to analyze common bridge construction defects, classify them into appropriate groups, and redefine them as a precautionary measure and means to improve quality in bridge construction. For this purpose, data on bridge construction since January 2007 were obtained from the evaluation report of the Public Construction Committee (PCC) of Taiwan. Bridge construction defects were cla...
