Description

Product Description This book reviews construction safety measures in different regions of the world, and provides detailed evidence of the need for construction safety measures. Gathers and presents worldwide construction accident statistics, and costs of construction accidents. Review From the reviews:“It is a compilation of research and publications by a large host of authors that Li and Poon have organized into a logical order of presentation for construction safety issues. … Li and Poon provide summary tables and graphs, in some cases, to show the patterns of research results and conclusions in certain areas of safety research. … a reference book for safety managers and experts, instructors of safety courses, or persons wanting to find sources of previous research on specific safety topics or concerns.” (Denise Gravitt, Construction Management and Economics, Vol. 31 (10), November, 2013) From the Back Cover A close-to-ideal blend of suburb and city, speedy construction of towers of Babylon, the sparkling proportion of glass and steel buildings’ facade at night showcase the wisdom of humans. They also witness the footsteps, sweats and tears of architects and engineers. Unfortunately, these signatures of human civilizations are swathed in towering figures of construction accidents. Fretting about these on sites, different countries adopt different measures on sites. This book firstly sketches the construction accidents on sites, followed by a review on safety measures in some of the developing countries such as Bermuda, Egypt, Kuwait and China; as well as developed countries, for example, the United States, France and Singapore. It also highlights the enormous compensation costs with the courts’ experiences in the United Kingdom and Hong Kong. About the Author Dr Rita Yi Man Li is currently an Assiatant Professor in Hong Kong Shue Yan University. She is the author of many articles and serves as an editorial board member for many journals.
