Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Due to the production process of construction being characterized by high labor intensity, high mobility, high complexity, and harsh workplace conditions, construction practitioners face serious occupational safety and health risks. The occupational safety and health of construction practitioners have always been a concern of industry professionals and scholars. In recent years, the risks that have emerged along with the gradual transformation of the construction industry to industrialization, greenization and intellectualization have also brought new challenges to the safety and health of construction practitioners. Risk management effectively controls risks, prevent accidents, and supports occupational safety and health management in the construction industry. Combined with risk management approaches, cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence, cloud computing, the internet of things, and building information modeling have great potential for identifying, analyzing, and controlling occupational safety and health risks. Papers focusing on occupational safety and health issues for construction practitioners are invited for this Special Issue, including but not limited to new theories and methods, experimental studies, modeling or simulations, and literature reviews.
