Development of WBS (Work Breakdown Structure) risk based standard for safety planning at seaport project

Abstract

A construction project consist of many activities. In order to make it easier to manage, the activities broken down into smaller one that called work package. Meanwhile the work on the construction project and its elements is relatively similar and this can be standardized and used as the basis for a universal program for construction works. Standardization of the WBS will enable the automation of the project planning process and hence will minimize the occurrence of work accidents on construction project. The aim of this study is to develop a risk based WBS standard for seaport project, identify source of potentially dangerous risk may occur and to develop safety plan using a standardized risk based WBS, this will be a way to preventing, reducing and nullifying the risk of workplace accidents to obtain zero accidents in a construction site. The scope of this study is sea port construction project only.
