Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The construction industry is undergoing rapid transformation through technological innovations in safety and project management. Digital solutions such as BIM, IoT, AI, and data analytics are reshaping how we identify, monitor, and mitigate risks while enhancing project delivery and efficiency. These technologies have become increasingly vital as the industry confronts complex challenges, including those revealed by recent global disruptions that demanded remote coordination and strengthened safety protocols. The integration of digital tools with traditional practices presents new opportunities to improve safety outcomes, optimize resources, and deliver projects more effectively. This Special Issue, titled “Advances in Construction Safety and Project Management”, invites original research studies, case studies, and review articles that examine innovative approaches and emerging technologies. Topics include risk assessment frameworks, smart safety monitoring, predictive analytics, digital twins, and solutions that enhance worker safety and project performance.
We look forward to your submission.
