An Expert System to Rate Construction Site Based on Safety

Abstract

The number of accidents that occur in construction sites are increasing day by day. Due to that, the damages and fatality rate due to construction site failures are alarming. During construction, many accidents may occur in the site. It’s the responsibility of site supervisors and Engineers to control the accidents during construction. An attempt has been made to analyse the different causes for accidents in a construction site based upon the surveys conducted at different construction sites located in Rajiv Gandhi salai, Chennai. Based upon the survey analysis, a smart system has been developed to categorize the construction of safety site based upon safety conditions adopted. This research also brings into light many effects due to improper safety management in the construction site. The research paper concludes by providing certain recommendations and strategies to all construction sites for improving their safety performance, which thereby reduces the number of accidents.
