Prevention of Falls from Heights in Construction Using an IoT System Based on Fuzzy Markup Language and JFML

The main cause of fatal accidents in the construction sector are falls from height (FFH) and inappropriate use a harness is commonly associated with these fatalities. Traditional methods, such as onsite inspections, safety communication, or training, not enough to mitigate caused by FFH poor management harness. Although some technological solutions for automated monitoring workers could improve conditions, their frequent due particularities sites: complexity, dynamic environments, outdoor workplaces, etc. Then, integration expert knowledge technology key issue. Fuzzy logic systems (FLS) Internet Things (IoT) present many potential benefits, real-time decisions being made based on FLS data sensors. In current research, development test an IoT system integrated Java Markup Language Library FLS, support experts’ decision making FFH, proposed. proposal was checked four scenarios working conditions different levels risk obtained promising results.
