abstract

abstract project management in construction industry, in many cases, is imperfect with respect to the integration of occupational health and safety (ohs) risks. this imperfection exhibits itself as complications affecting the riskiness of industrial procedures and is illustrated usually by poor awareness of ohs within project teams. difficulties on ohs regularly came about in the construction industry. the integration of ohs risk is not systematic in construction areas in spite of progressing laws and management systems. as project safety and risk evaluation in construction industry is an important issue, thus, the way on doing evaluation and liability of estimation is necessary. in this paper, we propose a new systematic approach based on latin hypercube sampling (lhs) for integrating occupational health and safety into project risk evaluation. this approach tries to identify and evaluate reinforcement effects in a systematic approach for integrating ohs risks into project risk assessment. furthermore, the proposed method allows evaluating and comparing ohs risks before and after the mitigation plan. a case study is used to prove the workability, credibility of the risk evaluation approach and uncomplicated integration of ohs risks at a construction project. this approach enables continual revaluation of criteria over the direction of the project or when new information is obtained. this model enables the decision makers such as project managers to integrate ohs risks toward schedule plan and compare them before and after the mitigation plan. the mentioned model is found to be useful for predicting ohs risks in construction industries and thus avoiding accidents over the path of the project.

Developing a conceptual model based upon the Latin Hypercube Sampling for integrating OHS into project risk evaluation

Abstract Project management in construction industry, in many cases, is imperfect with respect to the integration of Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) risks. This imperfection exhibits itself as complications affecting the riskiness of industrial procedures and is illustrated usually by poor awareness of OHS within project teams. Difficulties on OHS regularly came about in the construction i...

developing a risk management model for project based organizations

uncertainties in industrial environments can cause considerable complexities, during the implementation and management of projects. so, performing a risk management model in such environments has become inevitable. in such circumstances, many risk management models have been introduced in literature, which majorities of them are general, while some of them are developed to be applied to specifi...

USING LATIN HYPERCUBE SAMPLING BASED ON THE ANN-HPSOGA MODEL FOR ESTIMATION OF THE CREATION PROBABILITY OF DAMAGED ZONE AROUND UNDERGROUND SPACES

The excavation damaged zone (EDZ) can be defined as a rock zone where the rock properties and conditions have been changed due to the processes related to an excavation. This zone affects the behavior of rock mass surrounding the construction that reduces the stability and safety factor and increase probability of failure of the structure. In this paper, a methodology was examined for computing...

Wind Power Forecasting Based on Extended Latin Hypercube Sampling

With the rise of distributed generation, such as wind power and photovoltaic (PV), it is necessary to consider the effect of distributed generation’s output randomness. Using the method of Latin hypercube sampling (LHS) can effectively fit output scenario. Considering the sampling number of conventional LHS (CLHS) must be fixed in advance, LHS(ELHS) can be Extended to predict wind power. The sa...

An Empirical Evaluation of Sampling Methods in Risk Analysis Simulation: Quasi-monte Carlo, Descriptive Sampling, and Latin Hypercube Sampling

This paper compares the performance, in terms of convergence rates and precision of the estimates, for six Monte Carlo Simulation sampling methods: Quasi-Monte Carlo using Halton, Sobol, and Faure numeric sequences; Descriptive Sampling, based on the use of deterministic sets and Latin Hypercube Sampling, based on stratified numerical sets. Those methods are compared to the classical Monte Carl...
