Abstract
Abstract To reduce the hazards of collapse accidents in the construction process and to ensure that the lives, health, and property of construction workers are protected, this study used the theory of safety system engineering to identify the hazards of collapse accidents, analyze the hazards, predict the consequences, evaluate the systemic risks, and evaluate the effects and improve them. At the same time, the risk factors of collapse were evaluated qualitatively and quantitatively by using the analysis methods of fault tree analysis (FTA) and the analytic hierarchy process (AHP). Finally, according to the evaluation results, the main factors causing collapse accidents were found; this provided a reliable and practical basis for the prevention of collapse accidents. Then, according to the decisive factors, corresponding measures were taken in advance to achieve the aim of preventing and controlling collapse accidents. The results show that equipment maintenance, material inspection, and construction site safety management play an important role in preventing collapse accidents.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Nonlinear Engineering aims to be a platform for sharing original research results in theoretical, experimental, practical, and applied nonlinear phenomena within engineering. It serves as a forum to exchange ideas and applications of nonlinear problems across various engineering disciplines. Articles are considered for publication if they explore nonlinearities in engineering systems, offering realistic mathematical modeling, utilizing nonlinearity for new designs, stabilizing systems, understanding system behavior through nonlinearity, optimizing systems based on nonlinear interactions, and developing algorithms to harness and leverage nonlinear elements.
